Dwarf Pears. 
We have the Dutchess d'Angonleme and Louise Bonne on the dwarf stock, 
which two varieties do the best as dwarfs. Dwarf pears are grown on quince 
stock, and come into bearing sooner than the standards. Strict attention to 
them, and high cultivation will result in a magniflcient yield of fruit. The size 
of the tree makes them valuable on account of the ease of collecting the fruit 
and spraying. Price of Dwarfs are the same as Keiffer and Garber
