SELECT PEARS. 
Pears should be much more freely grown than they are. The young trees come into bearing much earlier than is generally 
supposed, especially when worked on the Quince stock. Many of the varieties are exceedingly prolific, whilst the fruit are more 
valuable than Apples, choice sorts always finding a ready sale at good prices.

Our Pears are mostly worked on the ordinary pear stock. Those 
marked with an asterisk (*) we can, however, supply in dwarfs and pyramids 
on the quince. These come into bearing and profit much earlier than those 
worked on the ordinary stock, and are specially recommended to the notice 
of allotment holders or where the tenure is uncertain.
