MONROE NURSERY. GOOSEBERRIES. —?— This fruit is of importance, being very highly valued in its green state for pies, tarts, puddings, etc., coming in use earlier than any other. When ripe it is very agreeable as a dessert fruit, maturing at an acceptable time, following the season of cherries. The gooseberry requires a deep soil, well manured, and if inclined to be dry should be mulched to retain the moisture. The bushes should be thoroughly trimmed and pruned to obtain large, fine fruit. DOWNING'S SEEDLING.—Origin, Newburg, N. Y. Fruit larger than Houghton, round- ish, light green, with distinct veins, skin smooth, flesh rather soft, juicy and very good. Vigorous and productive.. INDUSTRY. HOUGHTON'S SEEDLING.—A vigorous American sort, very productive, free from mil. dew, fruit medium, roundish, smooth, of a pale red color, tender, sweet, and of a delicate flavor. RED JACKET.—A new red berry of the largest size, smooth, quality of the best, very prolific and hardy. Said to be absolutely free from mildew in leaf and fruit. Promises to be the variety we have been long waiting for; equal to the best English sorts, and capable of producing large crops under ordinary cultivation, wherever Gooseber*-;Qs can be grown..
