BARTLETT PEARS 
\ THE MAX-RED BARTLETT BEAR: (Plant Patent No. 
741.) Is a sport of the well-known Bartlett variety. 
This new variety, while maturing at about the 
same time as its parent, distinctively differs there- 
from primarily in the coloring of the fruit when 
matured. The texture of the fruit is a little finer, 
the quality.somewhat sweeter and juicier, while 
the wood is reddish in color. The flesh is white, 
while the skin turns from a Morocco Red to a 
Mahogany Red. An excellent keeper in cold stor- 
age. 
The tree is of medium size; tall; upright; vigorous; 
rapid-grower; hardy; and a very productive and 
regular bearer. Ripens in August. A new addition 
to the home garden as well as for the commercial 
growers.
