Delicious Frutsa 
THE thrifty housewife has long known the savings made 
when fruits are grown at home. There is something about 
home-grown fruit that is different. It tastes better than 
any other. There is no investment that can be made that 
will bring as satisfactory returns as the purchase of fruit 
trees and berry bushes. Fruit trees are attractive when in 
bloom as well as when loaded with luscious fruit. Apples are 
a healthy fruit and may be had from August until Spring 
if a proper selection of varieties is made.

FLAME. (Minnesota No. 635.) This is primarily an ornamental crab but the fruits, 
though small, make an excellent red jelly. The flowers are similar to other 
crabs but are borne in great profusion. The tree is compact in growth and 
of medium size, suitable for lawn planting. The fruits are a brilliant red 
and hang tenaciously to the trees until midwinter, months after the leaves 
have fallen. The effect is a mass of flaming red color from August until No- 
vember. Trees 5 to 6 feet high often have 250 or more brilliant red colored 
crabs. The fruit during December and January is attractive to winter birds. 
As an ornamental tree in the fall it rivals all other trees with its attractive 
bright red fruit. Among the ornamental trees in our nursery last fall this 
ornamental crab attracted by far the most attention.
