Dolgo Crab 
Mendel Pear 
Mendel Pear 
We have come to the conclusion after considerable investigation that 
the Mendel is hardy enough for trial and will undoubtedly succeed in 
many localities. It has survived at the Northern Great Plains Station 
at Mandan over a period of several rather severe years. 
Mendel is a real, good sized pear of very fair quality and showing 
great resistance to blight as well as hardiness against cold. 
We are fortunate to be able to offer a limited number of 3 to 4-foot 
trees. Price, each, 60c; 5 for $2.75.
