Select Apricots 
The leading characteristics of the apricots are extreme 
hardiness, early bearing, productiveness, and freedom from 
disease. Every garden should have one or more trees. In the 
selection of choice garden fruits it is quite indispensable. It 
succeeds well trained against a house wall, fence or trellis, 
leaving the open ground for other trees. In cold sections, too, 
where the trees get winter killed, or the blossoms injured by 
the late spring frosts, trees can easily be protected by mat or 
board screens. I offer all hardy varieties as follows: 
Alexis — Large, yellow, red blush, sub-acid, rich; good ouality. 
Gibb — Medium, roundish, very light yellow, sub-acid. 
Moorpark — Large size surface orange-red with a deep orange- 
red cheek with a rich, high flavor. 
Budd — Yellow with fine red cheek, sweet, juicy. Tree a good 
grower and very productive. 
Harris — Medium, hardy, productive, bright yellow with red 
cheek, juicy and good. 
Montgamet — -Deep yellow, one of the best for preserving. 
Sub-acid and of good quality. 
St. Ambroise — One of the largest and finest apricots, ripening 
Alexander Apricot early in August.

Select Varieties of Quince 
Orange — Large; roundish, of a bright golden yellow color, 
flesh firm and tough until cooked, when it becomes tender, 
juicy and of excellent flavor. Tree has rather slender 
shoots and oval leaves; very productive. This is the var- 
iety most extensively cultivated for the fruit. Ripe in Oct. 
Rea (Rea’s Mammoth) — A large and fine variety of the Orange 
Quince. Rich and aromatic, one of the largest and hand- 
somest. Bears young. A strong grower and productive. 
Van Deman — A strong grower, the hardiest, surest and young- 
est bearer. Fruit golden, big, fine flavored. Tree productive.

sections. One of the best for sections not subject to early 
frosts.

Select Varieties of Dwarf Pear 
Dwarf pear trees often bear fruit the same year planted, and the trees occupy 
but little room in the garden. They can be planted very closely together and kept 
headed back. There is scarcely a city or town lot so small that room cannot be 
found for a few dwarf fruit trees. Their hardiness makes it possible for anybody, 
anywhere, to produce delicious fruits. I am confident that if my patrons were to 
spend hours choosing from local nurseries or the agent’s catalogues, they would not 
find an equal number of varieties that possessed more valuable features for the 
home or market than those offered in this list. 
I offer the following list of superior varieties of Dwarf pear trees. These are 
about all the varieties that will succeed as Dwarf trees. (See description of these 
on other pages. )
