PRICES ON ALL FRUIT TREES 
SPECIAL DOZEN RATE: 12 trees for price of 10. Write for prices on 
larger quantities. SPECIAL NOTE: All of our | year fruit trees are 
on 3 year field grown roots, excepting peach root stock which is 2 year

PEARS 
The pear thrives over a wide range of soils and climatic condi- 
tions. The roots withstand heavy, wet soils better than most other 
fruits. Unlike other fruits, the pear develops better quality when 
ripened off the tree, and should be picked before it begins to soften. 
Plant trees from 20 to 25 feet apart. 
SUMMER PEARS 
Bartlett. Large size, golden yellow when ripe, with beautiful blush 
on sunny side. Buttery, very juicy and highly flavored. Tree a 
strong grower and bears early and abundantly. The most popu- 
lar. Ripens late August, early September. 
Clapp’s Favorite. A large, fine pear, resembling the Bartlett, but 
without its musky flavor. Fine texture, without graininess. Pale 
lemon yellow with slight blush. Tree hardy and productive. 
AUTUMN PEARS 
Bosc Buerre Bosc—Fall Russet). One of the best fall pears. Splen- 
did shipping and commercial variety. Long, slender shape, solid 
russet color. Flesh fine-grained and very flavorful. Good keeper. 
Comice. A splendid commercial variety, of fine size, good appear- 
ance, with faint reddish blush on sunny side. Very juicy, sweet 
and aromatic. This variety should be more widely known and 
planted. 
Seckel. Small, rich, yellowish brown. One of the best flavored 
pears known, fine for pickling or preserving. Ripens late Sep- 
tember, early October. 
Oriental Pear. Something different. A very ornamental type tree, 
with dark, shiny leaves and russet colored, globular fruit. Dis- 
tinctive in flavor. Ripens late September to October. 
Winter Varieties

russet. Flesh yellow-white, fine grained, exceptionally sweet and 
aromatic. December.

pearance, but ripening considerably later. One of the few pears

ber to January.
