Seedlings. 
These secured without the labor of budding are of course cheaper, 
but they are correspondingly less valuable. The fruit is small, the 
trees very tall, so that picking is expensive, and yet these seedling

over to more desirable kinds, but many possessors of such orchards 
think them too profitable to make this wise. Seedling trees often bear 
enormous crops.
