This advertisement advertise-ment is strong encouragement to our horticulturists to persevere in procuring the best qualities of fruit that can be grown in this re:; hi. Dried peaches have this fall and winter been shipped extensively east. But fresh pulled fruit must be made a large item of exportation ex-portation in the season; not peaches alone, but apples, pears, plums, apricots, apri-cots, strawberries and grapes. Our bench landa should have acres of strawberries planted on them, as well j as grapes for y'mous purposes and for i exportation in the bunch. This matter is one of no- little importance. im-portance. There have been thousands of bushels of peaches wasted hero, fed to hogs, trampled under foot, made into brandy, or allowed to iium,mnJ Tf it. p.;i ; ,- fr-rior, cut down the trees and let them throw up fresh, young shoots. In a year, they can be budded with the best varieties to be procured, and in a couple of years more, or so. they will bear and be a profitable investment.
