The New Waite Pear. 
and Southern 
WAITE PEAR 
A NEW PEAR WITH COMMERCIAL POSSIBILITIES. 
10 Times More Blight Resistant Than Keiffer. Bartlett 
Shape and Size, Fine Quality, Almost Seedless. 
A product of the U. S. D. A. Bureau of plant industry 
developed by Mr. M. B. Waite. The Waite pear, pre- 
viously tested as No. 66131 is outstanding in blight 
resistance, never developing under severe test condi- 
tions more than 10% as much blight as the Keiffer. 
The fruit resembles that of Bartlett and is about same 
size, ripening about same season as Keiffer. The flesh 
is smooth in texture and is almost free of grit cells. 
It is more acid than Bartlett but is excellent for cook- 
ing and canning and fairly good for dessert purposes. 
The tree is rather slender, willowy grower and of mod- 
erate vigor. 
The WAITE pear requires cross pollination for con- 
sistant crops. The fruits are very attractive, having 
good finish, slight blush. Nearly all fruits observed 
this year were almost seedless, showing extremely 
small core. 
Resembles Bartlett in size, color, 
GORHAM shape, only ripens 2 weeks later. The 
flavor is sweet with very marked and pleasing aroma. 
The flesh is white, tender, buttery and juicy. The trees 
are vigorous and productive and very resistant to blight. 
5e extra per tree. 
OVI The fruit is large and resembles Bartlett. The 
flesh is fine grained, tender, nearly white, very 
sweet and good in quality. The tree is a strong grower 
and definitely blight resistant. The Ovid gives promise 
of being one of our best late ripening and keeping pears. 
SECKEL Small rich, yellowish-brown; one of the 
best flavored pears known; very product- 
ive. September and October. 
NOTE—Most Pear varieties are self-unfruitful and 
should therefore be interplanted with other varie- 
ties to produce consistent crops. It should be noted 
however that Seckel and Bartlett will not cross pol- 
linate each other and where these two varieties are 
being planted another variety should be added. 
Duchess and Flemish Beauty are the most self-fruit- 
ful of those we list and are therefore good pollinat- 
ing varieties. We shall be glad to give detailed in- 
formation upon request.

3 sistant and productive pears now be- 
ing grown. Trees often bear heavy at 3 years of age. 
Fruit is large, handsomely colored with red blush, and 
smooth finish. Flesh is not as grainy as Keiffer and 
considered better quality by many. Suitable for home 
or market use. 
KEIFFER The old reliable pear grown in all sec- 
tions of the U. S. and Canada. The 
tree is practically immune to blight, very thrifty and 
bears constant heavy crops. The ‘fruit is large to very 
large, golden yellow, often blushed, juicy and one of 
the best Pears we have for shipping to distant and 
foreign markets. 
DWARF PEARS 
The cultivation of Dwarf Pears is very profitable. 
The trees are low-headed and the fruit is Saale handl- 
ed and comes into bearing usually the second or third 
year. We recommend the “following varieties to be good 
growers and bearers and to give the best satisfaction 
as dwarfs:
