SWEET CHERRIES 
“ SCHMIDT’S BIGGAREAU—The Black Giant of Sweet 
Cherries. A splendid market or home use cherry, be- 
cause of its attractive and all around good qualities. Con- 
sidered one of the very best of the Black Sweet Cherries. 
Delicious to eat, fresh and canned and very attractive. 
Fruit grows in large clusters. Keeps well and is an ex- 
cellent shipper. In size it is very large, usually unsur- 
passed by any black sweet cherry. Bears fruit very 
young, hardy and a sure cropper. We recommend this 
variety very highly. For prices see top of page. 
-WINDSOR—One of the best quality dark cherries, often 
referred to as Black Oxhart. Has pinkish flesh and 
almost black skin. Large, juicy and firm. Delicious to 
eat, fresh and wonderful for canning. Used extensively 
for fancy preserving. Tree grows upright and is a rapid 
and vigorous grower. A good variety. PRICED ABOVE. 
‘NAPOLEON (Royal Ann)—Of fine appearance and 
very largest size. Color yellow and amber, with bright 
red blush; flesh firm, juicy and delicious. Profitable 
for market, finding a ready sale, for canning and des- 
sert. Ripens in July. For Prices See Top of Page. 
“NOIR DE GUBEN—This variety has been grown in Eur- 
ope for many years, it is a reddish black cherry of good 
size, crops abundantly. The flesh is firm, juicy, very 
sweet and aromatic. It is a cherry of the Schmidt’s type, | 
a little earlier in season. The tree is vigorous, thrifty \ 
grower, healthy, and productive. It is a choicely good 
cherry for home and roadside trade. 2 yr. 4 to 5 ft. 
trees, $2.15 each; 3 for $5.85. Jumbo size trees $3.15 each. 
“SCHRECKEN BIGGAREAU—It is a large heart-shaped 
glossy black cherry, handsome in appearance. The flesh 
is melting but firmer than the early-ripening sweets, 
moderately sweet, and full of aromatic dark-colored juice. 
Ripens with Black Tartarian but is much larger in size 
and firmer flesh makes this variety much more valuable 
than Tartarian. The tree is vigorous and productive. 
Strong 2 to 3 foot trees $1.50 each; 3 for $4.05. Heavy 
3 to 4 foot trees $2.00 each; 3 for $5.55. 
NEW NOBLE-—A dark-colored firm fleshed sweet cherry 
for market and home use. The fruit is large, heart- 
shaped, slightly flattened at the apex, dark purplish red, 
firm fleshed, and of very high quality, and seems to crack 
less than those of the late sweet varieties. We recom- 
mend this variety very highly as a choice late sweet 
cherry. Strong 4 to 5 foot trees, $1.50 each.

earlier than the Black Tartarian, the standard early 
cherry. The cherries resemble those of Tartarian in 
being round-cordate, purple-black, with juicy, melting 
flesh, and a rich, sweet flavor. The pit is free and the 
skin does not crack. For Prices See Top of Page. 
EMPEROR FRANCIS —This large new high-quality 
cherry is of the Napoleon type. The cherries have been 
less subject to cracking than those of Napoleon. The 
color of the two fruits are similar, except that those

darker. All in all, Emperor Francis promises to be 
one of the best main-crop sweet cherries. Strong 4 
to 5 foot trees $2.25 each; 2 for $4.25. Jumbo size 
trees $3.25 each; 2 for $6.25.
