within the last few weeks that they
have revealed their condition. Both
varieties ---one later than the other -
have now blossomed, And they eto
tmrt r
have suffered no damage
from last winter's aererity. We he-
lieve it was the late Judge Toms who
Introduced these trees in Goderich.
There are severil In the Itquare, ana
others about town. A parttented,
