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. 
Seneca Cherry—A real sweet cher¬ 
ry for the Mid-West; tree a marvel¬ 
ous grower, several specimens 
measuring 20 ft. high and 10 ft. 
spread at seven years’ growth. It 
is the earliest fruit of the season, 
ripening ahead of strawberries. Not 
subject to leaf-spot. A good pro¬ 
ducer of large, dark red, sweet cher¬ 
ries of fine quality. 
Neosho Improved Strain of Royal 
Anne—Adapted to Ozark conditions; 
extra large, golden yellow with 
pink cheek cherry, heart-shaped on 
long stems; ripens with Montmo¬ 
rency. 
Each $1.00, 5 for $4.50

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.

bears heavy crops annually; very 
hardy. Blooms midseason.

flavor.
