A sweet cherry planted alone is not 
likely to bear fruit, because It is self- 
sterile. Plant a Black Tartarian with 
any other sweet cherry. 
Black Tartarian (Sweet) — Most 
widely planted sweet cherry east of 
the Mississippi. Beautiful, lustrous, 
purplish-black when ripe. Medium size 
for sweet cherry; very good quality. 
The tree is a very large, vigorous, up¬ 
right grower. Very productive and reg¬ 
ular bearer. Early. 
Gov. Wood (Sweet)—Yellowish-white 
tinted with crimson; large. Very good 
quality; ripening early, with Black 
Tartarian; blooms early. 
Napoleon (Sweet)—The best yellow 
cherry. Often sold and grown as Royal 
Ann. Best of the sweets for dessert 
and canning. 
Windsor (Sweet)—Dark red, almost 
black; large. Good to very good qual¬ 
ity, ripening late; blooms early. 
Early Richmond (Sour)—The favorite 
early sour cherry. Fruit is medium 
size. A good canner. Tree is medium 
size. Ripens about a week earlier than 
Montmorency. 
English Morello (Sour) — Fruit is 
small, dark red colored; very sour, but 
loses some of its sourness if left on 
the tree until fully ripe. First class 
for canning and preserving. Stands 
lower temperature and severe drought 
than any of the other leading varie¬ 
ties. Tree is small. Bears young. 
Montmorency (Sour) — The most 
widely planted cherry. Productive and 
a regular bearer. Colors early before 
ripe—a distinct advantage for ship¬ 
ping. The fruit is roundish, plump and 
a beautiful glowing red. It hangs in 
clusters, making picking easy. The 
fruit does not crack or rot, even in 
very hot, rainy weather. It hangs on 
without dropping after it is dead ripe. 
The flesh is rich, sprightly and pleas¬ 
ant. A good shipper and a good can¬ 
ner. Does not mash down in the box. 
The tree is the largest, most vigor¬ 
ous grower of the sour cherries. A 
very reliable cropper. Bloom seldom 
injured by late frost or severe winter 
freezes. Ripens in Southwest Missouri 
first week in June.

Winter Nelis (Winter)—The latest, 
best keeping pear. Can be held in cold

and is a regular bearer. Blooms late.

quality good to very good; similar to 
Bartlett, but more resistant to blight. 
Succeeds farther south than Bartlett 
can be grown. It has stood the severest 
tests of intense, moist, summer heat 
and low altitude of the climate of Lin¬ 
coln, Illinois, where it was originated 
by W. E. Jones. Comes into bearing 
early and bears heavy crops annually; 
very hardy. Blooms midseason. 
Seckel (Fall)—The standard of ex¬ 
cellence for quality. Small, yellowish 
brown with russety red cheek; should 
be first choice for family orchard. 
Slow grower, dependable, productive 
and very hardy, notably free from 
blight. Blooms midseason.
