Mr. 'Iversen, of Earnscleugh, Alexandra, Central Otago, has grown a new variety of quince, which is quite ' different in both flavour and eating quality from the ordinary variety of this popular fruit. The ordinary variety of quince when cooked is very rough and* hard, with quite a grain in its texture, whereas this particular variety is more like an apple in texture, cooking to a creamy softness, and yet not going to a mush, thus making it quite an acquisition to the housewife who wishes to vary the everyday menu. It makes a splendid jam, and for jelly, when cooked with apples, cannot be surpassed. It is quite a new variety to Otago fruit-eaters. Originally it was import Mgifroin California, where u has a reputation second to none, as a table conserve-. .
TUSSICURA (Wild Cherry Balm) never fails to tfivo relief in cases of. stubborn coughs and colds, catarrh, etc.
