PEARS. 



Plant Standards 20 feet apart each way — 180 trees per acre. Dwarf 7 to 10 feet apart each way. 

 Pears should be gathered from the trees and ripened in the house; some are worthless if left to ripen on the 

 trees, and all are better in quality if properly ripened indoors. Summer pears should be gathered at least ten 

 days before they would ripen, and autumn varieties two weeks. Winter pears should be permitted to hang until 

 late — until the leaves have fallen, if they will remain that long — then gathered and treated the same as winter 

 apples. Dwarf pears are those budded on Quince stocks, and although valuable for those who have but limited 

 space for planting, yet are by no means so reliable or productive as standard trees. If planted deep they will 

 form what are known as ''half standards" which are usually productive and profitable. Dwarf pears will not 

 prove fruitful unless given high and careful culture and pruned annually.
