Neoshe APRICOTS and PEARS 
Easy Zo Grow 
BARTLETT PEAR. (Late Summer.) The leading commercial variety; one of the 
most popular for dessert and canning. Found on ail grocery shelves, as canned 
Pears, and the fresh fruit is available at all fruit stands in August and Sep- 
tember. Flesh is white, fine grained, juicy and sweet. Tree is vigorous, very 
productive, hardy, bears young. Here in the Ozark country Bartlett has proven 
one of the most popular money-making varieties. See illustration. 
DOUGLAS PEAR. (Early Fall.) Douglas is a large, handsome Pear of Bartlett 
quality that ripens in early fall and comes into bearing the second or third year. 
Golden yellow, flushed with pink; tender, juicy, excellent flavor. 
Douglas is that outstanding Pear for the central west. It is blight 
proof, very resistant to dry weather, and if your bloom is killed by 
spring frost, will send out a new set of blossoms on the new wood and 
set a crop of fruit, so you will have Pears every year on Douglas. 
KIEFFER PEAR. (Winter.) Large, yellow, russeted; flesh white, rather 
coarse. A market and kitchen variety that succeeds farther south 
where other varieties fail. Tree hardy, very vigorous, resistant to 
blight. Blooms early. 







LINCOLN PEAR. (Summer.) Large, yellow; quality good to very good; 
similar to Bartlett, but more resistant to blight. Succeeds farther 
south than Bartlett can be grown. It has stood the severest tests of 
intense, moist summer heat and low altitude of the climate of Lincoln, 
Illinois, where it was originated by W. E. Jones. Comes into early 
bearing and bears heavy crops annually; very hardy. Blooms mid- 
season,

Neotha APRICOT 
New Improved Strain Hardy Superb Apricot 
Such a delightful luscious fruit as the Apricot really should be 
planted more than it is, since it ripens just after the early Cherries, 
and before the best Peaches. Apricots will stand more winter cold 
than Peaches, though they bloom so early they are more apt to be 
injured by spring frost. A northern or eastern slope is best so the 
opening of the buds will be retarded and the danger of frost damage 
lessened. See illustration.
