THEE FRUITS 

DWARF APPLE TREES 
We have heen able to secure a limited amount 
of dwarf type apple trees in a number of varieties. 
They are particularly desirable for those people 
whose planting space is limited. They are dwarf in 
height, do not spread over space as the standard 
varieties. Trees are more easily sprayed and 
trimmed, and the fruit begins at an earlier period 
in their life. Ultimate height 10 to 12 feet. Close 
examination will disclose two grafts just above the 
roots on dwarf trees. DO NOT plant with top graft 
below the surface of the ground. 
We are able to list the following in % inch 
caliper:

QUINTUPLET APPLE TREES 
Quintuplet trees, as the name implies, are apple 
stocks that have been grafted with 5 or more 
varieties of apples on the same tree. They are 
satisfactory for the people having a limited space 
for trees and wanting more than one kind of apple. 
You will find them as hardy as the types with a 
single graft of the same name. They are grafted 
with grafts of Yellow Transparent, Red Delicious, 
Jonathan, Yellow Delicious, Wealthy or Crimson 
Winesap. We are unable to tell which of the 
types will. be on each tree, but each tree will have 
9 varieties from the above list. 
4 to 4¥2 foot size: (Each $2.60). 
Postage: (Each 15c). 
We are listing only the varieties that have proven 
a success in the West, and we know that with the 
proper care and attention that is due to any tree, 
a crop of fruit will result from any one of the many 
we have listed. 
As soon as you receive your shipment remove 
the packing, sprinkle the roots and heel the bundle 
in moist ground. In planting, take out only a few 
trees or shrubs at a time and never allow them | 
to lie exposed to the air and sun at any time. Dig 
the hole large enough to admit all the roots in the 
natural position, keeping the surface and the sub- 
soil separate. In filling in, sift the best soil in 
around the roots. When most of the soil is filled 
in, pour in the water to wash the soil around the 
roots, then pile up the remainder and tread down 
gently with the foot. After this the tree or shrubs 
should only be watered when the soil gets dry 
about 2 or three inches below the surface. A mulch 
around the base of the tree, 2 or 3 inches thick, 
is very beneficial.
