Choice New Garden Fruits 



Every person who has a garden needs some of our Choice New Garden Fruits, they take very little 

 room, come into bearing quickly, and will repay their trifling cost many times over in delicious fruit, be- 

 sides the pleasure and satisfaction of having them of your own. The varieties offered below are the very 

 finest sorts, and it will pay you to give them a liberal tria l this year. 



Dwarf Bismarck Apple 



We take pleasure in recommending this wonderful New 

 Dwarf Apple for planting in gardens and yards where fine fruit 

 is desired, but not room for large trees. It has been thoroughly 

 tested and proved to be a most valuable variety. Remarkable 

 for its dwarf growth and early and abundant bearing. Little 

 trees, not much over three feet high, frequently bear large apples 

 the first season after planting, and all should bear abundantly 

 in a very short time. The apples are large and beautiful: rich 

 golden yellow, streaked with red. They ripen about mid-season 

 and are of a most delicious quality. The trees may be planted 

 along a fence or in any vacant corner you happen to have, and 

 will soon repay you with delicious fruit.
