red; flesh crisp, vinous, juicy. A fine des-

NEW and RARE 
Bismarck. “The little tree with the big 
Apples.” Originated in New Zealand. Very 
large, and especially handsome ; yellow 
ground, well covered with a showy shade of 
red ; yellow flesh ; first quality. Very hardy 
and an exceedingly early bearer, trees of two 
years often being laden with fruit. Promises 
to be of great value. 50 cents each. 
PEARS 
T HE varieties we offer are those which tests have proven best for the needs of 
the South, and which will give good results. This fruit, perhaps more than 
any other grown in the South, should receive care and attention to attain the 
best. Market value, canning and shipping qualities, flavor, productiveness, each 
is considered for points by which to judge of their right to mention in our list. 
The varieties cover the entire season.

S3 for 10; S25 per 100- Special quotations for greater quantity
