DWARF FRUIT TREES 
A tree whose fruit is as large or larger than 
Ordinary, but which never grows very tall—per- 
haps ultimately 12 to 15 feet. Space 12 feet apart. 
A dwarfed tree can be sprayed, pruned and 
picked by hand without ladders, equipment or 
professional skill. Tree bears much earlier in life, in 
its third or fourth year at latest—often earlier—and 
carries amazing loads of fruit. Dwarfed fruits (es- 
pecially Plums and Peach) are less liable to borers 
and other pests.

DWARF FRUITS BEAR USEFUL QUANTITIES 
Dwarf fruits are not short-lived, but thrive and 
produce a generation or more. A space 25 ft. 
square will hold 4 dwarfs instead of one standard, 
and the 4 will bear about % more fruit than will 
one standard tree—and will do it 2 to 4 years
