FROM THE N. Y. AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION 
These three new Pears—Cayuga, Gorham, and Plutney embody high 
quality, size, attractive appearance and good tree characters. Their 
characteristics meet requirements much desired in pear varieties—and 
they are truly IN LINE WITH PROGRESS. 
These pears average as large as those of 
Bartlett but with the delectable flavor, shape, 
and color of Seckel—its parent. The tree characters seem all 
that could be desired. Those who have Cayuga now in fruiting 
are enthusiastic in their praise of this variety.

Now is a most opportune time to plant a few cherry trees or a cherry orchard. The number of bearing 
cherry trees has been noticeably reduced during the past few years, due largely to cherry leaf spot which can 
be very readily controlled by several summer sprays of Lime-Sulphur 1-40. Do not delay planting your tree*.
