FALL is the Ideal Time to Plant! 
Order now—again next spring there will not be enough of these Dwarf Apple 

Trees to go round. Plant this fall and get extra growth the first year; use two or 
more, not just one, unless there are other Apple trees nearby for pollination.

‘Dwaxf; Apple Trees 
The new J. & P. dwarfer Dwarf Apple Tree which beats better, 
earlier fruit on long-lived trees that stay dwarf. Now you can 
plant Apple Trees in even the smallest garden plot, without crowd- 
ing out roses, perennials and other flowers and vegetables. Have 
beautiful, fragrant flowering trees in spring; luscious, colorful 
Apples in summer and fall. By the time the trees are four years 
old, they are in full bearing; we have found trees with over 500 
blossoms the year after planting and bearing over 20 lbs. of Apples. 
J. & P. Dwarf Apple Trees bear bigger, more colorful fruit than 
the large trees do. Plant them along a fence, in borders, among 
shrubs, in a pair by a gate, etc. 
For a more complete description of Dwarf Apple Trees, and other 
fruits for your Victory Garden, see page 25. 
6 varieties: $2. each; any 3 for $5.
