Late ones last until the end of September. But there is probably only one week during that time when every condition is favorable for oanuiug. Early fruit isn't firm; it spoils quickly, and hasn't the proper flavor. Date fruit is hard, small, and of inferior quality. In between them id a time when the fruit is large, ripe, cheap. We think that time is this week. Buy it here and get the best there i3 grown. R. A1 Hutchison GnooERIES AND ()ROOKERY Prompt Delivery. - Phone 59. Who Wants a Farm ?
