Bartlett Pears — A Heavy Bearer — Excellent Flavor — Best 

 Commercial and Home Variety 



BARTLETT — Summer. Large, rich golden yellow, with a 

 light red blush when ripe; buttery, juicy, melting, with a 

 very rich, pleasing flavor. Bartlett is without a peer, hav- 

 ing won an international reputation as the best and the 

 most profitable commercial pear and also the finest home 

 orchard variety. 



Bartlett pears, when properly grown and packed in boxes, 

 bushels and half-bushel baskets, are most attractive, and 

 find a steady, ready demand with highest prices on the mar- 

 kets. Excellent for fresh eating and unsurpassed for can- 

 ning. An old favorite. 



Garber — Fall. Extra large, even larger than Kieffer; poor 

 flavor, but excellent for canning. Tree is hardy, strong 

 grower; bears at early age: producing large crops. Garber 

 is good pollinizer for Kieffer as well as other varieties. 



Lawrence — Winter. Medium to large; golden yellow, with 

 brown dots, melting; pleasant, aromatic; good quality. Un- 

 surpassed as a winter variety. 



SECKEL — Fall. A beautiful and delicious little pear, known 

 everywhere and an old-time favorite: skin yellowish brown 

 with deep brownish red cheek ; flesh very fine grained, sweet : 

 one of the richest and highest flavored pears grown. Tree 

 rather dwarf, slow, but stout and erect, bears prolific crops.
