The Early Richmond Cherry

    There is no canning fruit that we prize higher than the cherry called the Early Richmond. It is a sure bearer, ripens just after strawberries and is a heavy bearer. I have grown them for 35 years, and they can be relied on to produce a crop four years out of five. The trees are not long lived, and to make sure of a family supply a few trees should be planted every six or eight years.-----Waldo F. Brown  in Home and Farm.
