SELECT DWARF PEARS. 
The Pear, when buckled upon the root of the quince, assumes a dwarf hal>it. and seldom 
grows above 10 feet in heiglit wlien properly trained. 
In planting Dwarf Pear trees, the stock on which they are budded, and no more, should 
be under ground. They will then stand firm, and not lose their dwarf character by llie rooting 
of the standard stock. The side brandies sliould not l)e removed higher than one foot from 
the ground on dwarfs. Train in pyramidal form. 
See (lireetioiis iiiulcr Suiiiil;ini Peai's for .tjalhcriii^ and lipening Dwarf Pears. 
The selection of varieties in the Dwarf sorts is of importance, and it is a well established 
fact that certain kinds do not thrive well on tlie quince root. Our list includes the varieties
