Michel's Select fruits 
Do not overlook Fruit Trees. They are more than just ornamental in the garden, for they add greatly 
to the home food supply. They may be planted to advantage during the fall months. There is always plenty 
to do in the spring; therefore, we advise you to plant in the fall where possible. 
Our policy of contacting many reliable growers, inspecting their stock of ‘Trees, Shrubs and Plants, in- 
sures to our clients the best that is available. All new introductions are submitted to a rigid test by experts 
before we offer them to you. By these methods we seek to retain your confidence and win the support of 
many new friends.

Most varieties of Pears are self unfruitful, or self incom- 
patible, even though they bear excellent pollen. Duchesse

other varieties that we offer. Bartlett and Seckel will not 
cross pollinate; use Duchesse d’Angouleme if either or both 
of the above two are being planted.
