BARTLETT. 



Bartlett 

 is extra 

 good for 

 canning 



mellows and is excellent for eating very early in the fall, yet 



when picked a week before it is ripe, and properly stored, 



will keep till late. Flavor delicious and musky; flesh buttery, 



rich and juicy. One of the finest Pears that grows to eat 



raw. A mingling of the flavor of Bartlett Pear and quince 



gives about the finest taste of any food this world's folks have. Bartlett 



trees bear early, produce enormous crops, and are not nearly so subject to 



damage by insects and disease as some other sorts. The trees do especially 



well with high culture. 



Clairgeau. Winter. Large yellow fruits, with blush cheek on side exposed to 

 the sun. Flesh white, delicious. 



Clapp's Favorite. Summer. A lemon-yellow fruit, spotted with brown dots. 

 Flesh fine, flavor rich and sweet. 



Duchess (Angouleme). Bears young. Fruit large; good quality. October 20. 



Flemish (Flemish Beauty). Large, handsome fruits. Skin yellow with tan 

 cheek. Rich, sweet flavor. Popular in the western fruit sections. 



Garber. Fall. A good pollenizer for Kieff"er. Fruit resembles Kieff^er, but 

 ripens two to three weeks earlier.
