Having but recently moved to the country, I hare been anxiously consulting authorities in regard to stocking my place with choice fruit of all the desirable kinds. On reading your leading article in the March number, which professes to give the kinds of fruits best adapted to each of the several States In the Union, and which statement is made up from " reports from the most northern limits of the United States to the shores of the Pacific," how is it that there is not one tingle kind of any of the fruits named suitable for the State of Maryland ?

Is it considered that fruits which salt the climate of Pennsylvania and Delaware, or those which suit the climate of Virginia, will do for Maryland ?Or have you no reports from Maryland ?Has the American Pomological Society no representative from Maryland?

I ask these questions purely for information upon a subject of great Importance to me at the present moment, for I should like to get those kinds of fruits best adapted to this State, and avoid the error of bad selections which my own Judgment might lead to. John C. Holland. - Catonsville, Md.

We hare been unable to find any report on the varieties of fruits cultivated in Maryland, but it is safe to assume that such as are recommended by Delaware, Southern Pennsylvania, and Virginia, will succeed there. We hope to see a full report from Maryland, presented at the next session of the Pomological Society. Kentucky is behind in this respect, too, for although we have had some valuable contributions on the climate, etc., of that State, from Mr. Lawrenon Young, Chairman of the State Committee. we have had no report on varieties of fruits. We know many gentlemen in that State fully competent to make a valuable report, and we trust they will do it.
