We have given in our General List thirty- 

 one varieties of the pear which we deem the 

 most valuable for one's own consumption or 

 for the New England markets. 



If any person desires a more extended cat- 

 alogue, he may select from the following: 



Summer Julienne, Muscadine, Passans 

 du Portugal (fine,) Summer Franc Real, Wil- 

 liams' s Early. 



Autumn Dunmofe, Napoleon (better on 

 quince,) Sieulle, Thompson's, Surpasse Virga- 

 lieu, Verte Longue, Bezi de la Motte, Beurre- 

 de Capiaumont, Beurre d'Anjou, Doyenne 

 Boussouck ; (the latter two do well on quince.) 

 Also, (worthy of trial,) Swan's Orange. 



Winter Glout Morceau, Knight's Monarch, 

 Prince's St. Germain. Winter Baking Pears. 

 The Iron or Black Worcester, Catillac, Bell or 

 Pound, are the best cultivated in New England. 



We now propose a select list of fourteen 

 pears, which we hope may prove satisfactory 

 to those whose ambition is for the truly valua- 

 ble rather than for a multiplicity of varieties. 



SELECT LIST. Summer. Madeleine, Bart- 

 lett, Rostiezer. 



Autumn St. Ghislain, Buffum, Louise 

 Bonne de Jersey, Henry IV., Seckel, Flemish 

 Beauty, Urbaniste, and Dix,
