KELLY’S PEAR TREES 
The pear trees we are offering this year are some of the finest we have ever grown. No home 
orchard is complete without several pears. Being upright they require little room and are 
ideal for small lots. Kelly pear trees are budded on the finest seedlings available, and grown 
on the best upland pear soil in the country. Pears do best on a heavy well drained soil. 
Sod cultivation is recommended. The varieties below represent the best types for home 
and commercial orchards.
