Seckel Sugar Pears 
: Also called Sugar Pear. 
Seckel Pear Fruit is not wart large, 
but ‘is of finest flavor, as good as the best 
for table use, and for this purpose Seckel 
should be in every orchard. I do not recom- 
mend it for canning. Tree is a slow grower, 
but bears extra well, and is hardy. Can be 
grown wherever pears are known to suc- 
ceed. This year, 2-3 and 3-4 ft. trees only. 
Seckel ripens in September.

PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS 
Pears should be spaced at least 30 feet 
apart, and due to their tall, upright growth, 
often fit in well as shade trees, for in- 
stance, in the back yard. Planting of the 
trees should be done as stated for apples on 
pages 6 to 9. Pears succeed in poor soil, 

in fact they begin to bear younger if the 
trees grow slow due to inferior soil.
