Plan for Home Grounds

area of 1 acre may be laid out in a fruit-garden for the 

 home supply. For a number of years, other plants as 

 vegetables, 

 small-fruits, or 

 dwarf apples or 

 dwarf pears 

 may be grown, 

 not only be- 

 tween the rows, 

 but between 

 the trees in the 

 row. 



The dwarf 

 apples and 

 pears find a 

 special and ad- 

 vantageous use 

 in the home gar- 

 den, although, 

 if there is room, 

 a few trees 

 of standards 

 should be grown 

 to lessen the 

 chances of fail- 

 ure and to sup- 

 ply some of the 

 staple varieties 

 in larger quan- 

 tity.
