DUCHESS — A large showy pear, often 
weighing a pound each; greenish yel¬ 
low, rough uneven surface. We con¬ 
sider the Duchess to be the most 
profitable dwarf pear in this section. 
The tree is dwarf; does not blight. 
Heavy bearer. Ripens September to 
October. 
GARBE31—The tree is thrifty and bears 
young. It is almost blight-proof. The 
fruit ripens the last of September and 
sells readily on the market. It is of 
medium size, yellow and well covered 
with red. 
KIEFFER—One of the most popular 
market pears grown. The tree is a 
vigorous and upright grower, bears 
young and heavily, and is almost 
exempt from blight. The fruit is of 
good size, rich color and of fair qual¬ 
ity. Ripens fall. 
SECKLE—The Seckle is often called the 
Sugar Pear. TTiis fruit is small in size 
but of excellent flavor. It is generally 
well known. Ripens August 15th to 
September. 
THE NEW DOUGLAS—Beautiful, large, 
smooth pear with golden yellow color, 
flecked with russet. Flavor is delicious, 
sweet, melting and juicy. Blight-proof 
and resistant to disease. A regular 
cropper in all soils. Bears while tree is 
very young—some have fruit first 
year. 
RASPBERRIES 
Note:—We Offer You Two Grades 
Two-year transplants are grown from 
1-year plants set out in .nursery row 
last spring, grown one year, taken up 
and they are ready with one year 
extra growth, and will bear fruit this 
coming summer if set out reasonably 
early this spring. In growth and pro¬ 
duction you will be one year ahead of 
others who grow Raspberries. They 
cost more than one-year plants, but 
we have grown them one year longer 
for you, therefore, you get a plant 
with a two-year root system which 
puts you one year ahead of the game. 
One-year extra large are of bearing 
size with well developed one-year old 
root systems. After being set out, if 
the tops are cut back within 8 inches 
of ground line (and they should al¬ 
ways be anyway), they often send out 
fruiting stems which bear berries this 
coming summer. This grade is very 
suitable for garden or field plantings 
where only the best is desired. Of 
course, they cost more than the next 
smaller size, but the size and quality 
is there and are at least double the 
other in value.
