HYBRID CHERRIES 
Heavy yielders . . . fine for canning 
The Hardy Cherries that we offer are results 
of crosses between plum and cherry. The 
trees are hardy. The fruits possess the cherry 
flavor and are not bothered by the birds. 
They are heavy yielders and are excellent for 
canning. Trees may be planted as close to¬ 
gether as 8 ft. by 8 ft. 
COMPASS—Compass is an early fruiter, bear¬ 
ing the second year. It is indispensable as a 
pollenizer for Sapa and Oka. It is a very hardy 
tree and thrives in nearly any sort of location. 
The fruit is especially good for jams and for 
canning. Heavy yielder. 
NICOLLET—A very hardy, thrifty, upright 
growing tree. Should be planted with Zumbro for 
cross pollenization. Fruit is bright red. 
OKA—This is one of the best of the Hybrid 
Cherries recently introduced by Prof. Hansen. 
An unusually hardy cherry excellent in both the

tive, a heavy bearer, and produces large quanti¬ 
ties of fruit the first year after planting. The tree 
is of bushy habit and should be grown as a low 
shrub.

become increasingly popular. Sapa is a large sized 
cherry with a small pit. Fruit is dark red with
