Mrs. May's CHERRY PIE ORCHARD 
By planting these two varieties you'll have long weeks 
with all the cherries you want. You'll be eating Early 
Richmond in late May. Improved Montmorency will ripen 
about 10 days later. We will send you improved strains, 
heavy rooted and well branched trees. Order early. 
IMPROVED 
MONTMORENCY 
Cherries have been scarce and high priced. Most families 
haven’t had nearly as many as they wanted for fresh 
cherry pies and sauces and for home canning. You can 
have plenty, all you want, enjoy them at their freshest 
and best ... by planting trees of your own this year. 
The first bushel you pick will more than pay for the tree.
