Pineapple Sand Pears 
NOTHER profitable fruit to grow, 
and yet one which has not been suf¬ 
ficiently publicized to be more in demand, 
is the Pineapple Sand Pears. We first 
grew Pineapple Sand Pears for our own 
use, and finding them of such prolific 
growth, such fine fruit, such a ready 
market, and such a splendid profit, we de¬ 
cided to pass on our experience to our 
customers and grow these trees for them. 
40 to 75 bushels per year from many of 
the older trees in our section is nothing 
unusual and some orchards yield over 
1,000 bushels to the acre. One orchardist 
produced 400 bushels on 2% acres, one 
year, and two years later gathered over 
3,000 bushels which sold for $2,520—over 
$800 per acre. 
Have you ever seen an orchard of 
pears in bloom? Was there anything more 
beautiful than these graceful trees in 
their mantle of white? Even when the 
blooms and fruit are gone, the trees are 
ornamental as well as useful and will 
beautify any home or land along a road¬ 
side. They take up but little room and re¬ 
quire no cultivation.

S O WE NOW produce these pear trees for our 
customers, and have thousands of young, 
thrifty growing trees ready for shipment. These 
trees, when mature, will be better than our own 
old trees, since they have been propagated from 
our producing trees; thus fine parent stock, and 
a better start than our own trees had. 
The Bass Pineapple Sand Pears grow rapid¬ 
ly—they are extremely hardy. All trees have a 
well developed root system. 
We suggest that you plant our Extra Special 
size, so beautifully headed.

The Bass Pineapple Sand Pears are guar¬ 
anteed not to blight in any section.
