ANDREWS Northern CHERRIES 

SAPA CHERRY “te 
The Popular Heavy Producing 
Red Flesh Favorite 
Since its introduction a number of years ago by Prof. N. E.. 
Hansen, Sapa has become very widely planted. The fruit finds 
ready sale on account of its splendid quality which is unexcelled 
for canning, for sauce and pies and for eating out of hand. Sapa 
is a large sized hybrid cherry with a small pit. It is purple-red 
outside and wine-red inside, thin skinned and delicious flavor. 
Fruits at 2 Years Old. The Sapa forms fruit buds on one- 
year-old wood. Thus it is that Sapa can bear the next year after 
planting in the orchard—it is this reason that makes it a good 
annual fruiter. 
Hardy—Easy to Grow. Sapa is very hardy and thrives over 
a wide range. It is best practice to grow Sapa as a large bush 
and keep them pruned more severely than most fruit trees. Cut 
out the older growth and encourage growth of new shoots that 
will set fruit regularly and heavily. Include some of the pollin- 
izers listed below. Prices, page 29-F. 
OKA CHERRY 
This is another hybrid cherry recently introduced by Professor 
Hansen. It should be grown in bush form as suggested for Sapa. 
The fruit is a rich purple-red color both outside and inside, a 
delicious flavor and the tree is immensely productive. It produces 
fruit buds the second season. It is about a week earlier than Sapa. 
VICTORY DEMANDS HEALTH Prices, page 29-F. 
Almost 40 per cent of the boys ex- 
amined for Selective Service have been 
rejected because of malnutrition. The rec- 
ords show that there is even more mal- 
nutrition in rural districts than in town! 
That is why there is a national campaign 
on urging us to eat more fruit. 
Those who grow their own can afford 
to enjoy more fruit. A good fruit planting, 
including some of these northern cherries, 
will provide an abundance of Vitamins A, 
C and G. Plant fruit trees this spring for 
Defense of Health.
