S A TINOLA,
The Unequaled Beautifier.
A veteran nurseryman of Colorado
heralds the fact that after y.ears of pa
tient experiment in grafting and budding
he has secured a seedless apple. Modest
ly the creator has withheld information
of his success until he has secured 4Q
trees of his new variety, says a local in
formant. Expert pomologists have ex
amined the new apple, and declare it to
he very handsome in appearance. De- !
tails of the methods by which this
achievement was attained have not been
divulged, but when it is remembered
that the million-box crop of navel
oranges came from a single shipment of
six slips the start that has already been
attained with 40 productive trees
presages an early appearance of the
eeedles apple in commerce.
The department of agriculture, as well
many grape growers, have been work- i
Jng for years on the problem of a seed- I
Bess grape, and, while rumors of success 1
have appeared from time to time during
rthe past decade, the Sultana and Thomp
-son seedless varieties have during the
past year established' their reputation
among the viticulturists. The Japanese
plum, without a stone, Is also reported a
reality, although the seeds have not
been obviated. Cherries without stones
are promised In the Immediate future.
Seedless tomatoes are alleged to hare j
been perfected by an Indiana woman, be- ,
lag grown from the stock of the tomato^
which is replanted when it Is at its full .
height Watermelons of the same freak ;
nature are also rumored from Georgia, ,
but not much credence le placed in this
-report, though If tomatoes have been *
-perfected there Is no essential reason <
'Why similar success should not be at- 1
lain ad with the watermelon.
