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. 
GARBER—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. This 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. 
Mr. Farmer Plant More Fruit 
Plant fruit trees liberally for your own use—for your profit. 
Considering the cash return fruit has a higher yield per acre 
than wheat or any other cereal crop. 
An orchard adds considerably to the cash value of your farm. 
Besides you can’t beat fresh fruit for your table and for canning. 
Grow your own fruit — can what you can — eat what you can — 
sell the rest for a money crop. 
Weather conditions are ideal right now for planting.
