Dwarf Fruit Trees — A Great Boon for Small 

 Gardens 



"An Apple a day keeps the doctor away" is simply a euphonious way of stating that we should all 

 eat more fruit! But the only way to enjoy all the quality nature stores within fruit is to grow it and 

 pick it yourself. And, with the help of early bearing dwarf fruit trees, fruit growing ceases to be the 

 exclusive privilege of the large land holder. Set 10 feet apart each way, these dwarfs bear remarkable 

 crops of fruits, which fully measure up to the size of those borne on the larger standards, and they 

 start bearing within a year or two after they are planted.

Dwarf trees for the small garden are rapidly gaining in popular favor, and the demand has in- 

 creased faster than the supply. Planted 10 feet apart each way, they generally start bearing imme- 

 diately. We are fortunate in having a good supply of them. The varieties that we have are as follows : 

 Baldwin, Delicious, Duchess, Mcintosh, Red Astrachan, Rhode Island Greening, Rome Beauty, Stay- 

 man's Winesap, Wealthy and Yellow Transparent. 



Price: Splendid, symmetrical trees, all two years old, each, $1.50; dozen, $15.00. 



Dwarf Pears 



Just think of being able to raise nine fruit trees where 

 ordinarily you can plant but four! Moreover, dwarf Pear 

 trees come into bearing very much more quickly than the 

 standard varieties, while the product is just as large and 

 the crops are mucli easier to gather. Truly, dwarf Pear 

 trees are the ideal fruit trees for the suburban garden and 

 small estate, and you will find our stocks of varieties, named 

 below, exceptionally fine. 



Plant 10 feet apart each way. 



Splendid trees, all two years old or older, each, $1.50: 

 dozen, $15.00. 



We have them in all the following varieties, viz.: Angou- 

 leme, Anjou, Bartlett, Clapp's Favorite and Seckel. 



A.WELL-BALANCED HARDY PERENNIAL FLOWER 

 BORDER OR "OLD-FASHIONED GARDEN," FOR 

 ONLY $5.00. 



The last S years have seen the vogue of old-fashioned 

 "grandmother" gardens increased by leaps and bounds. There 

 are many reasons for this: Such gardens always contain 

 color; always supply abundant flowers for cutting; always 

 increase in size and value — but why tell you all the 

 advantages? 



With a view to introducing our "Hardy Perennials" to 

 as many new patrons as possible we have decided to supply, 

 for only $5.00, fifty husky plants (not more than five of a 

 kind) all of which will bloom this year and for m;iny year; 

 to come. This collection will be made up of the very best 

 sorts, including Aquilegias, Larkspurs, Hardy Candytuft, 

 Poppies, Phloxes, Irises, Gypsophila, Coreopsis, . Shasta 

 Daisies, Stokesia and many other good sorts. FiftV Plants 

 —$5.00. 



A FINE COMBINATION OF TWO CHARMING OLD 

 FAVORITES 



Lily of the Valley, with its chaste fragrant hells of purest 

 white; Gov. Herrick Violet, dark purple flowers of great 

 size and fragrance. Both prefer partial shade and make a 

 lovely picture. We will supply 12 clumps of Lilv of the 

 Valley and 12 strong plants of the Violet for $4.00, by 

 express only. These should provide both fragrance and 

 beauty next spring.
