CHERRIES 
There is no fruit tree more profitable than the Cherry, especially the sour varieties, which 
are very desirable for pies and canning. They bear fruit very soon after planting and bring 
good returns on your investment. Cherries are easily raised and should be planted in large 
enough quantities to insure plenty of this desirable fruit for the family. You may select 
varieties and obtain quantity prices.

APRICOTS 
Apricots bloom early and many times are caught by frost. Heavy mulching after the 
ground freezes solid will retard their early blooming. We recommend Thompson's Early, as 
it originated just two miles south of Fremont, Nebr., and has proved to bear more often 
than the others.
