DELICIOUS 
FRUITS 
The thrifty housewife has long 
known the savings made when 
fruits are grown at home. There 
is something about home-grown 
fruit that is different. It tastes 
better than any other. For their 
ornamental qualities alone, fruit 
trees are worth while. The next 
best thing to eating berries right 
off the vine is to have them served 
to you directly after picking. 
POSTAGE—We recommend shipping fruit trees by freight or express. The 3 to 4 foot size and the 4 to 
5 foot size may be shipped by parcel post, however. Figure weight at 3 pounds each for the 3 to 4 foot and 
4 pounds each for the 4 to 5 foot. Please refer to parcel post rate table on page 32 to figure amount of postage 
to include with order. 
Small fruits such as grapes, strawberries, currants, etc., can be shipped parcel post if desired. Please note 
weights given under each item.

FLAME. (Minnesota No. 635). This is primarily an 
ornamental crab but the fruits, though small, make an 
excellent red jelly. The flowers are similar to other 
crabs but are borne in great profusion. The tree is 
compact in growth and of medium size, suitable for 
lawn planting. The fruits are a brilliant red and hang 
tenaciously to the trees until mid-winter, months 
after the leaves have fallen. The effect is a mass of 
flaming red color from August until November. Trees 
5 to 6 feet high often have 250 or more brilliant red 
colored crabs. The fruit during December and Jan¬ 
uary is attractive to winter birds. As an ornamental 
tree in the fall it rivals all other trees with its attrac¬ 
tive bright red fruit. Among the ornamental trees in 
our nursery last fall this ornamental crab attracted by 
far the most attention.
