ANDREWS New Nanking Cherries 
NANKING CHERRIES 
(See Front Cover Illustration.) 
The State Fruiting Breeding Farms of Minnesota and of Mani- 
toba have again shown their skill in the development of valuable 
new fruits. These New Nanking Cherries are improved selections 
of the hardy Nanking Cherries of Northern China. They com- 
bine beauty of bloom and foliage and bear loads of the most 
attractive and delicious cherries. The varieties we offer are the 
most choice numbered or named varieties from Minnesota and 
Manitoba. 
DELICIOUS FRUIT 
The outstanding features about these new Nankings are their 
early bearing and their heavy and regular loads of fruit that rivals 
any Montmorency that ever grew anywhere. 
Prof. Leslie, Superintendent of the Dominion Experimental 
Station at Morden, Canada, says of their new introduction, 
Drilea: ‘‘Upright, spreading, vigorous, annual bearer, fruit round, 
from 14 to °8 inch across, bright red, flesh firm, tender, sweet, 
sprightly, pit small, season mid-July, quality delicious as dessert, 
canned, jelly or jam.’ The Minnesota varieties are considered 
just as heavy bearing and just as high quality. 
ORNAMENTAL AS WELL AS FRUITFUL 
Prof. Alderman says of the Minnesota Nanking Selections: “It 
can be said of all of them that they are very hardy, very pro- 
ductive and have excellent quality. The bushes are attractive in 
the spring when they are a mass of bloom and again in July when 
they are covered with ropes of red or yellowish red fruit. The 
fruits have a true cherry-like flavor and are excellent for sauce 
or jelly making.” 
PLANT ON LAWN OR IN GARDEN 
Nanking Cherries fit well into any landscape planting or they 
may be planted in the garden or orchard. The bushes are neat 
and trim. They grow to a height of 5 or 6 feet. The foliage is 
clean and attractive and the wealth of bloom would make them 
valuable on the lawn even if they bore no fruit. 
SAVE GROCERY BILLS 
As shown in the photo, Nanking bears loads of cherries. They 
usually start the second year, by the third year they are in heavy 
production. The fruit ripens in mid-July before most tree fruits 
are available. You will have an abundance of fruit for eating 
out of hand, for canning or for jelly. Plant Nankings and Cut 
Your Grocery Bills. 
PLANT FULL ASSORTMENT 
To insure pollination it is recommended that you plant several 
varieties. The combination suggested above will insure an abun- 
dance of fruit and furnish ornamental value besides. 
Prices: 2 to 3 ft., 85c each; 3 to 4 ft., 95c each; 4 to 5 ft., 
$1.25 each. 
Nanking is Dual Purpose—loads of bloom in spring, followed 
by loads of fruit in July.
