SWEET 
CHERRY TREES 
NOTE—Sweet Cherries bear heavier and more reg- 
ular where properly cross pollinated and two or 
more varieties should be planted together. 
Again note that Napoleon, Bing, Lambert and EKm- 
peror Francis are incompatible and a third variety 
should be planted with them. 
Sour Cherries are generally self fruitful and will 
cross pollinate Sweet Cherries to a greater or lessor 
degree, depending on seasonal bloom period varia- 
tion.

BLACK RUSSIAN 
One of Our Finest New Hardy Sweet Cherries 
A new sweet cherry coming to us from the orchards 
of Mr. Hiram Burkholder, Clyde, Ohio. Mr. Burkholder 
for years has tested many varieties of new fruits to de- 
termine the finer varieties for the fruit grower and the 
Black Russian Cherry is an outstanding example. In 
tree habit it is a vigorous grower, very hardy and high- 
ly productive. The tree under his conditions has shown 
no injury at temperatures of 15 to 20 degrees below 
zero, nor has late spring frosts during bloom period af- 
fected the crop materially. The fruit is medium in size, 
very firm, juicy and sweet, keeps well over long periods 
and does not crack or show tendency to brown rot be- 
fore picking. The fruit is very dark in color being al- 
most black. Flesh leaves pit readily. The flavor is 
distinctive, aromatic and delightful. We recommend 
this new cherry for trial in all sections where sweet 
cherries can be grown. We reserve right to limit quan- 
tities. Same prices as other sweet cherries. 1 year 
trees only. 
BLACK EAGLE An old variety which has been 
much confused with Schmidts 
and often sold for that variety. The tree is spreading 
in habit, medium in height, hardy and very productive, 
usually crops every year. The fruit is Crimson black, 
large, firm and a good shipper. Quality fair.
