Bartlett Pear 
_ Our Pear trees are all budded on French seedling roots, insuring 
hardiness and health. We imported some of the scions from St. Law- 
ence Valley to get away from blight a few years ago, and we think 
that our stock in this way is preferable to any we have ever seen. Plant 
Pears this year, supply of bearing orchards very far below normal.
