Cole’s Selected Fruit Trees 
NUT TREES 
While there are but few varieties of Nut trees 
hardy in our latitude, these few are considered 
bv many to be as important as any group grown. 
We therefore are listing the four varieties con¬ 
sidered the best from a standpoint of beauty, 
edibility, and attractiveness to birds and other 
wild life. 
American Beech. Fagus americana. 60 ft. A 
handsome tree with wide-spreading branches, 
light gray bark, and rich glossy green leaves. 
This tree bears the Beechnuts w'hich are often 
the chief food supply of the squirrels in winter.

(If wanted B&B, add 50 per cent).

shaped, dark green leaves. Edible nuts are

ful and stately tree bearing large quantities

New Seedless Pear 
While this Pear resembles the Bartlett in shape, 
size and color, it possesses many qualities which the 
Bartlett does not have. Being seedless and prac¬ 
tically coreless there would naturally be no core rot 
which is so prevalent among other varieties. Shows 
great resistance to the fatal Fire Blight and other 
weaknesses. Ripens 10 days later than the Bartlett. 
234 to 3 ft., $1.00 each, 5 for $4.50, 25 for $17.50
