THE CHINESE CALLERYANA PEAR 
This is the most promising of all the Oriental species. It is a fine grower and can be budded 
from July to September. Compare it with the French stocks (Fig. 15). Cooperative 
planting of trees for seed purposes is now under way to assure a home-grown supply of this 
remarkable species. Photograph Aug. 14, 1919. (Neg. 25437.) (Fig. 16.)

USE OF THE CALLERYANA PEAR AS A STOCK 
Roots of this stock were grafted with a cultivated pear in the spring of 1919, and the above 
photograph was taken August 14, 1919. In three and a half months the growth was nearly 
six feet. The variety is a new pear supposed to be a cross between Keiffer and La Conte.
