Daniels 
Hardy Cherries 
You don’t need an orchard to grow cher¬ 
ries, for the small size, attractive form, foli¬ 
age and color of these trees make them valu¬ 
able assets to any ornamental border. 
The splendid cherries we list on this page 
have adequately proven their desirability 
both from the home garden or market point 
of view. With an assortment of these one 
can have the finest of cherries for eating 
and for canning. 
Daniels Cherry Trees—x jr0 P a g a t e d by the 
methods we use—have proven hardy through¬ 
out the Northwest and well on up into Can¬ 
ada. 
Compass is the best pollinizer for the other 
cherries and should always be planted with 
them. Should you have an existing planting 
of cherries that is not fruiting well, plant 
some Compass along with them and you will 
be surprised with the way this correct pol- 
lenization will increase your yield. 
Bearing age trees generally blossom the 
year planted and should fruit the year fol¬ 
lowing without fail.

Zumfora Cherry 
ZUMBRA—The best sweet cherry type for 
Minnesota. Bears early. A tremendous 
yielder. When properly ripened on the 
tree the fruits are delicious to eat out of 
hand and one of the finest canning fruits 
known. 
NICOLLET—The closest approximately to 
the true sour cherry in size, color and gen¬ 
eral appearance of any that can be grown 
in the Northwest. Splendid for sauce and 
pies. Beautiful red color, small pit and 
crisp succulent flesh. 
OKA—A tremendous yielder of large round 
cherries fully one inch in diameter. Dark 
red outside with a juicy, purple meat in¬ 
side. Wonderfully sweet. The best of all 
the purple fleshed cherries. 
COMPASS—While this fine old variety is not 
the equal of the other three cherries in 
quality it is a most acceptable and popular 
fruit for canning. It is the best pollen- 
izer known for the other cherries and 
should be included in all plantings.

MENDEL—For 29 years Mendel has with¬ 
stood the rigors of our northern climate 
without winter injury or fire blight. It is 
a very productive variety. The fruit is 
large and hangs well to the tree. Is of 
first quality, sweet and juicy, and keeps 
well through the Fall. 
PARKER—Introduced by the State Fruit 
Breeding Farm. The fruit is medium to 
large; flesh tender and of good quality. 
Season, late September. 
PATTEN—Hardy in many parts of Minne¬ 
sota, South Dakota and as far north as 
Ontario. Thought by many to be the very 
best hardy pear. The fruit is of good qual¬ 
ity, medium to large in size. Good for 
cooking and very fine for table use when 
well ripened. 
TATE NO. 2—The fruit is of good quality, 
medium size. The late Father Katzener, a 
prominent pear grower near St. Cloud, 
Minnesota, reported it as his first choice 
of the thirty varieties he had tested. In 
1928 he gathered 35 bushels of pears from 
his Tate No. 2 trees.
