CRAB APPLES 
Cho ice . . - Hardy! 
DOLGO -Fruit is oblong, of real beauty and 
peculiar lemon-acid in flavor. Entirely different 
from any other crab apple and far superior for 
jellies, producing a transparent bright red jelly 
of high quality. The fruit is distinctly beautiful, 
borne in great profusion. Dolgo is a beautiful 
lawn tree, in addition to producing fruit of 
superior quality. It is a striking thing to see the 
masses of bright red fruit clustered along the 
branches. 
STRAWBERRY —An early crab. Very hardy 
and good yielder. Used for eating fresh and 
canning. 
SWEET RUSSET —Somewhat larger than the 
other crab varieties. A heavy yielder. Fruit is 
green, ripening to yellow and is covered with a 
light mottling of russet, very sweet and tastes 
very much like pear. Good for canning. 
Virginia 
TRANSCENDENT —The old favorite jelly and 
pickling crab. Tree a vigorous grower and heavy 
yielder. 
VI RGINIA —A very hardy and vigorous grower. 
Fruit fully as good as Transcendent for pickling 
or jelly. A prolific annual bearer. 
WHITNEY —A large bright red crab. Good for 
eating fresh and an excellent canning crab. 
Whitney is one of the best eating apples in its 
season and many people will eat nothing else 
while they last. Tree is perfectly hardy and a 
heavy yielder. Whitney is the best of all sweet 
crab apples. It ripens in August and has a 
definite place in any commercial or home orchard. 
Hailey 5 PEARS 
delicious ... easily grown 
Pears require the same soil and cultivation as apples. 
Pruning and spraying also similar. Why not plant a few 
Hardy Pears with your other orchard trees? 
We bud (or graft) our Pears on Pyrus ussuriensis seed¬ 
lings. This is a hardy root that stands our climate very 
well. This is an important feature which is sometimes 
overlooked when buying pears for our Northern climate.
