Norris's Early - Pear

[sketch of pear]

The tree grows uncommonly vigorously with
large and strong shoots. The fruit when ripe is of
a rich yellow color with brilliant red cheeks.
The flavor pleasant if picked before it is too
ripe. The uncommon beauty of this pear
renders it suitable for a market fruit it
ripens in the latter end of July.
