CARLTON PEARS 
The pear thrives over a wide range—being able 
to stand more summer heat than the apple. The 
French pear root also withstands heavy wet soils 
much better than most fruits. The popular Bart¬ 
lett rules supreme as a summer pear, but some 
of our fall and winter varieties are even finer in 
quality and flavor, and all lovers of fine pears 
should include some of these in their home gar¬ 
dens. Unlike most other fruits, the pear develops 
much better quality when ripened off the tree, 
and the fruit should be picked before it begins to 
soften. 
Two Types of Bartlett Pears 
Many Bartlett orchards produce the undesir¬ 
able short type of fruit shown at the right. Our 
budwood is selected only from trees producing 
the longer type fruit, or Nelson Strain. Highly 
recommended by canners in California. 
This type of Barlett will pay 25 to 30% better 
than the regular type Bartlett.

In planting a Cherry orchard care should be 
taken not to plant trees too close together; select 
a dry soil for the Cherry, as a rule, although it 
is so hardy a tree that it will thrive in a great 
variety of soil, yet a good sandy, or gravelly 
loam is best. Use same care in planting as other 
trees. 
Orchardists are resorting more and more to 
the planting of varieties of Cherries that are 
strong pollenizers. Experience seems to demon¬ 
strate that such varieties as Black Oregon, Black 
Tartarian and Black Republican are the best 
varieties to use for this purpose. Usually about 
one in every nine trees has proven to be the right 
proportion to use of these pollenizers. 
Special Note to Commercial Planters: Our 
cherry trees are grown from heaviest consistent 
producing orchards in Wasco County, Oregon. 
Pollenizers offered are taken from same Proven 
Blocks of Royal Ann, Bing, and Lambert. 
Commercial Sorts: Bing, Lambert, and Royal 
Ann. 
Pollenizers: Black Tartarian, Black Republican, 
Black Oregon, Deacon, Centennial, and Abun¬ 
dance.
