Green’s Nursery Co.: I have had fine fruit this 
year. My dwarf pears were a wonder to every 
person passing my home. When neighbors ask 
me where I get my trees I tell them from Green's 
Nursery Company of Rochester, N. Y. Mas. 
D. A. Palmer, Black Lick, Pa. 
(Beurre d’Anjou.) (Standard and Dwarf.) A 
-1 large, handsome pear, buttery and melting, 
with sprightly vinous flavor; keeps into mid-winter. Tree 
a vigorous grower and a good bearer. Many claim that this 
is the greatest of late autumn pears. It keeps until January 
with special care. It is beautiful in shape and color. Season 
October and November. 
Seckel (Standard and Dwarf.) Small size, yellow- 
_1 ish-russet with a red cheek. .Flesh. whitish, 
buttery, very juicy and melting with a peculiarly rich, spicy 
flavor and aroma. September and October. 
Seckel Pears (Reduced Size) 
The Seckel pear is noted for its beauty and quality. It 
has a brilliant red cheek. It is the sweetest of all pears.. It 
is an abundant bearer. While the fruit is small it wall yield 
as many bushels per tree as most other varieties. 
Pears, and in fact all fruits, should be eaten when cold. 
A pear or a bunch of grapes eaten in the orchard tastes 
belter than one that has been kept in a warmish room. This 
rule applies to the peach, orange, apple, and also to the small 
fruits, but this fact is not generally known. If your fruit is 
kept in a refrigerator for a few hours before eating it will 
taste far better than if stored in an ordinary room. 
For Prices on All Pears 
Vnrlv (Standard and Dwarf.) Pleases ail 
>\liaei l^ariy K ^ aiigft beautiful, red and yellow. It 
is a good grower and produces a crop early. Season early 
August. This is the earliest good pear. C. A. Green says so, 
and he ought to know for he first sent it out. He was the 
introducer. Possibly you never ate a Wilder Early. pear. 
Lots of people have not. It is delicious. It melts in the 
mouth. It is a rare delicacy. It is a beautiful pear with gold 
on one side and crimson on the other side. As a dwarf pear it 
bears fruit at an early age, soon after planting. I favor the 
dwarf pear for the home garden. It occupies but little space. 
The ends of all branches should be sheared off each year in 
July. If not sheared thus in July, do it in winter any time. 
All Prices are Free on Board Cars at Rochester, N. I.
