Baldwin 
APPLES—Zone III 
Growing the Apple is a profitable commercial 
proposition. Area planted to Apple Trees may be 
intercropped with grains or small-fruits while the 
trees are coming to bearing age, so that it is 
possible to have some income from such a planta¬ 
tion each year. The varieties we offer have been 
selected for their sterling worth and productive¬ 
ness. 
Apples prefer well-drained and fertile soil. You 
cannot expect the best results if you plant them 
in impoverished ground. 
As the trees develop you will find it best to 
take out the crossed and chafing branches. 
Main leaders of the trees should be cut back 
after their first season’s growth. This will pro¬ 
duce branching and thus make a better frame¬ 
work. 
Space standard Apples 30 feet apart; by keep¬ 
ing them cut back, you can put them closer on a 
limited area.

mild attacks of blight if any. Plant 12 feet apart.

PEARS—Zone V 
Pears prove one of the most delicious fruits, if 
you are located where you can grow them. There 
is always a market for pears and their production 
rarely satisfies the demand. 
Unlike other fruits, pears should not be allowed 
to ripen on the tree, but should be picked green 
and stored in a dark, cool place where they can 
ripen perfectly.
