Popular, Hardy, DOUGLAS PEAR 
Douglas is a large, handsome pear of Bartlett 
quality that ripens in early fall and comes into 
bearing the second or third year. Golden yellow 
flushed with pink, tender, juicy, excellent flavor. 
Douglas is the outstanding pear for the central 
west. It is blight proof, very resistant to dry¢ 
weather, and if your bloom is killed by 
spring frost will send out a new set of 
blossoms on the new wood and set a crop 
of fruit, so you will have pears 
every year on Douglas. It’s an 
early bearer, often bearing on 
o - . , 2-year-old trees in the nurserv 
..  . . _ row.
