poleon cherry—but infinitely better,” declared

when dead ripe. Huge, heart shaped, crisp, juice- 
laden, marvelously delicious. Patented and sold

Novelty in cherries—originated on a 
dark red Lambert Cherry tree with one 
limb bearing WHITE Lambert cherries 
with a narrow Blood Red Stripe from stem 
to tip—a true bud sport. Fruit huge, delightful 
flavor, ripens mid-season. Tree hardy, bears 
abundant crops. Fine cherry for your home or 
commercial orchard. Sold ONLY by Stark Bro’s. 
24i' j^urbank’s Black Giant 
Montearly (U. S. Patented) New 
Earliest Sour Cherry. Ripens 2 weeks before Montmorency— 
even earlier than Early Richmond and is 50% larger than Richmond. 
A superb deep wine-red cherry with meaty flesh and delicious 
bright red juice. Originated by the great Prof. L. R. Taft in his 
famous Michigan orchards. Size, shape and growth of tree about the 
same as Montmorency. Leaves are resistant to leaf spot. Patented 
and sold ONLY by Stark Bro’s. 
The remarkable SIZE and BEAUTY of Montearly will make 
It a PHENOMENAL MONEY-MAKER ON THE VERY EARLY 
MARKETS. Jno. T. Bregger, Ext. Hort. Cornell Univ., N. Y. 
reports: “Montearly will double the incomes of Montmorency 
cherry growers!” 
Stark Gold- ■^Hardiest 
An early summer, extremely hardy, delicious ^x^eet cherry of 
large size, and of pure, lustrous golden yellow color without a 
touch of red. 
It originated on a Nebraska farm and in a locality where extreme 
hardiness is necessary. The originator reported: “Thermometer 
often registers 40 degrees below zero—average wlnter,>25 to 30 
below, but this cherry NEVER MISSED A CROP.” It is a sweet 
cherry with the hardiness and stamina of the sour sorts—and is 
the cherry for which growers have been searching for years. A 
Michigan customer writes: “Have 10 leading varieties of sweet 
cherries in my orchard. Last year nearly all succurnbed to the 
extreme cold except Stark Gold—none of them were injured one bit 
in wood or bud, and were loaded with fruit.” Sold ONLY by Stark. 
]\4ontlate (U. S. Patented) New 
Latest of ALL true Montmorencies. A very large, beautiful, 
rich red cherry that ripens 2 weeks after Montmorency. Bears 
heavy and as young as Montmorency—yields more fruit than 
English Morello, and cherries sell for same high prices as finest 
Morellos. Tree very vigorous and does not show injury from leaf 
spot. Has withstood 28° below zero without injury. 
Montlate is the “long-looked-for late cherry”—discovered in 
orchards of Prof. L. R. Taft of Michigan. This new cherry ripens 
when other cherries are all gone, and prices are highest. Prof. U. P. 
Hedrick, noted author of “Cherries of New York” declares: “Will 
be a Great Boon to Cherry Growers and Canners.” Patented and 
sold ONLY by Stark Bro’s. 
Stark Improved Lambert 
Red Ox-Heart Type. The largest black Sweet Cherry, except our 
Burbank’s Black Giant. Dark purplish red, turning almost jet 
black when ripe, the skin is glossy—and tough enough to insure 
good shipping qualities; the flesh firm, rich, sweet, juicy and of 
supreme quality. It ripens in Early Summer about a week before 
Stark Gold. Sold ONLY by Stark Bro’s.

Black Tartarian Improved 
Here is the best, hardiest, most dependable, most widely success¬ 
ful of the LARGE BLACK TARTARIAN SWEET CHERRIES— 
the ideal hardy, black team-mate of Stark Gold. Sweet,early, hardy. 
Where hardines. or pollination is required, it is being planted almost 
to the exclusion of all other black sweet cherries. 
Montmorency Stark °lii„ 
From a select Record-Bearing Montmorency tree on our grounds 
which uniformly bore heavier crops of very large fruit—larger than 
any other Montmorency. Tree stronger grower than Montmorency 
King (Ordinaire). Superior to all other Montmorencies and our 
favorite after over 40 years testing. Fruit, large, flesh firm, ships 
perfectly; tree extra strong grower, sure and young bearer, largest 
of all the sour cherries, very hardy, produces tremendous money¬ 
making crops—succeeds everywhere. 
While Montmorency Stark is our choice of all the Montmorencies, 
we grow and offer three other improved select strains. Montmorency 
King is the best regular Montmorency—Montmorency Monarch 
is a selected strain coming from Iowa—Montmorency Sweet is, of 
course, not a true sweet cherry but it has less acid than any other 
strain of Montmorency. All of these strains are superior, but the 
Montmorency Stark is the best. 
Dyehouse —Very Early Tart Cherry 
(Earliest of all, except Montearly.) Better than Early Richmond, 
a week earlier, larger fruit, smaller seed—best very early cherry, 
except Montearly. Grown all over the United States. 
Suda Hardy —Late Pie Cherry 
Late. Wherever a late red tart cherry is .wanted, Suda Hardy 
should always be planted. Perfectly hardy and the fruit is produced 
in immense quantities. Best of the English Morello type, but 
larger, not quite so acid, better quality, and produces larger crops. 
Sold ONLY by Stark Bro’s. 
Bing —Fine, Early Black Sweet 
(Early sweet). One of the most delicious dark red sweet cherries. 
Ours is a superior selected strain.
