with order but will ship C. 0. D. with the understanding that you pay the mailman,
expressman or freight agent promptly upon arrival. We were the first nurserymen
to ship without requiring some cash with order.

Order Trees Early
Wherever you live it pays to order early. Send in your order just as soon as you
know what you want. POMONA METHOD OF SHIPPING C. 0. D., requiring
no cash with order makes it convenient for you to do this, and we want you to get
your trees and plant them as soon as weather conditions and the preparation of
your land will permit, either spring or fall.
Our Shipping Season
WE PACK AND SHIP ALL WINTER TO SOUTHERN STATES. Our regular
Spring packing and shipping season usually opens here February 1st and continues
into the month of May. The planting season is not regulated by any particular
month or day, nor by the state of vegetation where the planting is to be done, but
BY THE CONDITION OF THE TREES TO BE PLANTED. Hence, trees can be
sent with safety from Dansville, N. Y., to localities several degrees south, even if
they do not arrive until the ordinary transplanting season in that locality is past.
True To Label
YOU KNOW THE MEANING OF THIS EXPRESSION. As we understand it
a “true to label” Baldwin tree is a tree that grows up a Baldwin and a man who
plants a “true to label” Northern Spy does not go out some years later and pick
crab apples from its branches. The three lit te words have come to mean with us
accomplishment of purpose. They signify INTEGRITY, EXPERIENCE and
KNOWLEDGE.
Guarantee
In the event that any nursery stock sold by us should prove untrue to name under
which it is sold, we hereby agree, on proper proof of such untrueness to name,
to rectify and replace the same or refund the purchase price. Except for such
liability, and in respect to all nursery stock
sold by us, we give no warranty, express or im¬

Forty Years Dealing Direct with the Planter
IT’S A PLEASURE to present with this catalogue, our latest, which
portrays as clearly as possible the knowledge we have gained about
trees. Trees have been our life work — we have grown up with them.
We have learned to plant them, cultivate them, and to call them by name.
In the development of such a business as we now conduct representing
forty years of painstaking labor, there has been a vast store of knowledge
“laid by.” It is our intention to place this reserve fund at the disposal of
our customers and that they may receive prompt and careful attention
we have INSTITUTED our SERVICE DEPARTMENT, by means of
which the buyer can feel that he will receive absolutely impartial and as
nearly accurate information on planting as it is possible for us to give,
at any time.
Fresh Dug Trees
POMONA’S fresh dug trees are budded on the best whole rooted im¬
ported French stock, propagated by us from certified trees and bearing
orchards, free from disease, insect pests and true to name. ' Our C. 0. D.
offer enables you to take advantage of ordering now. Yesterday is gone,
forget it. Today is here, use it. Never leave till tomorrow what you can
do today.
What a Pomona Ten Cent Sale Is
It is a sale where you buy one tree at our special list price, then an addi¬
tional tree of the same variety for TEN CENTS. To illustrate: The
price of BALDWIN APPLE TREE is 30c. You buy one tree at this
price and by PAYING 10c MORE, OR 40c, YOU GET TWO TREES.
Every tree offered is of standard quality just the same as we have been
selling at the regular price every year. This is our second year to develop
a special sale of 10 cent trees. Rather than spend large sums of money
in other ways to convince you of the quality of our trees, we are spending
it on this sale so as to enable us to sell you a high standard tree offered in
this catalogue for 10 cents. It costs us a large amount of money to get
new customers, but the sacrifice in profit is justified, knowing the stock
offered will please you.
Our Special 10c Sale Price Covers Stock
As Listed in this Catalogue
If you order 10 trees, we allow you to select 5 varieties of 2 trees each.
If you order 50 or more trees, not less than 10 trees of a variety.
NOTICE
Before placing orders for fruit trees elsewhere we would
suggest that you send us your list of varieties for our
/J
special quotation as there are many varieties that we
have in surplus and are able to give a much lower price
on than our published prices in quantities.

RED ASTRACHAN— THE BEST EARLY DESSERT APPLE
DUCHESS OF OLDENBURG — Large, round; streaked red on yellow; tender, juicy, pleasant; a kitchen
apple of best quality and esteemed by many for dessert. Tree a vigorous, fine grower, and an
abundant bearer. Succeeds well in the Northwest, where most varieties fail. We find Duchess the
most valuable commercial variety, a sure cropper, hardy as an oak, having survived in some in¬
stances when all others died. August and September.
King of Tompkins County. One of the standard
varieties grown for commercial purposes, and
gives the greatest satisfaction when top-
worked on some hardier variety. The fruit
is of a bright red color, large and uniform.
The flesh is yellowish, crisp, tender, juicy and
sub-acid, and of the best quality.
GRIMES’ GOLDEN. Medium to large size; skin
golden yellow, sprinkled with gray dots;
flesh crisp, tender, juicy, sprightly, very good
to best. Grown in the South and Southwest.
Jan. to Apr.

an upright grower and a very early and
abundant bearer. Fruit of good size; skin
clear white, turning to a pale yellow; flavor

Propagated V^ere tlie Best Tlrees Growj
McIntosh apple
McIntosh — Not equalled in quality and flavor by any other variety. Due to its very high quality
and its exceedingly attractive appearance, it commands a ready sale and a fancy price in all the
large eastern markets. Has held the record for high price for years in the Boston, New York,
and Chicago markets. Rapidly making a place for itself as one of the leading if not the leading
commercial apple of the east. The fruit is very attractive in appearance, of bright deep red col¬
or, which in highly colored specimens is almost purplish-red overspread with a thin lilac bloom.
Fruit above medium in size, flesh white, firm, very crisp, fine grained, tender, very juicy.
Sprightly subacid in flavor with a characteristic perfume and aroma. Comes into bearing about
the fourth year and is a reliable cropper, yielding good crops biennially and sometimes annu¬
ally. October to December.
ROME BEAUTY — Keeps in good condition till May and June. Large, round, mottled and striped in
different shades of red; flavor and quality away above the average; appearance and size are its
valuable points; always sells and always brings good prices. With a weU-merited reputation,
Rome Beauty is a variety Eastern orchardists should plant largely. Good grower, blooms late,
bears heavily every year, is adapted to a wide range of soils, elevations and conditions.
DELICIOUS RED — This apple is appropriately named for it is of handsome appearance as well as
high quality, rivaling Spitzenburg. It is oblong in shape and its bright red and yellow skin is
very handsome. This apple has been largely planted in the Northwest and ranks high in com¬
mercial orcharding. Since it has made good in the apple growing sections someone has said it
is a gem. It is the best in quality of any apple I have tasted.
LOBO (McIntosh Seedling) — Above medium size; roundish conical; stem short to medium, color
bright crimson; skin thick, tough; flesh white with traces of red, fine grained, tender, juicy; sub¬
acid, sprightly, pleasant, good flavor and quality. October.
We consider Lobo a very promising variety for central and northern New Jersey. Under our condi¬
tions Lobo hangs to the tree much better than McIntosh, and also develops a brighter, more at¬
tractive color, comes into bearing early, and is very productive. We have held Lobo in cold stor¬
age in good condition until the first of February. (From New Jersey Exp. Station Report.)

PLATE OF THE RELIABLE BALDWIN APPLES
BALDWIN. A great market apple, very productive of fair handsome fruit. No variety yields larger
crops or bears shipment better, or is more attractive in color, size and shape, than the Baldwin.
It is esteemed as an eating apple, and for cooking. Thousands of barrels of this fruit are ex¬
ported to England annually. For a commercial orchard it can be relied upon. Large, bright red,
crisp, juicy and rich; tree vigorous, upright and productive.
NORTHERN SPY — This cut shows how perfectly
these may be grown, with proper care. This va¬
riety has long been a favorite in commercial sorts
in northern New England, New York, Michigan,
etc. It is superior to some other standard varie¬
ties in flavor and quality and commands top
prices. Large, striped and quite covered on the
sunny side with dark crimson; and delicately
coated with bloom. Juicy, rich, highly aromatic,
retaining its freshness of appearance and flavor
till July. A remarkably rapid, erect grower, and
a great bearer. One of the finest late keeping
apples. December to March.
Wagener — Medium to large; deep red in the sun;
flesh firm, sub-acid, and excellent; very produc¬
tive, bears very young. December to May.
Cortland. Is as large as that of McIntosh, or larger;
round to somewhat conical in shape. In color it is
a bright red blushed with darker red splashed and
striped with carmine and more or less overlaid with
a deep purplish bloom. The flesh is white, often
with a pinkish tinge, fine, crisp, tender, juicy,
subacid and aromatic. The trees are large, vigor¬
ous, upright-spreading, very hardy, productive and
healthy. Three weeks later than McIntosh.

WEALTHY — This is a beautiful, hardy winter apple, originating in Minnesota. Fruit large, round¬
ish; skin smooth, oily, covered with a dark red. Flesh white, tender, juicy, vinous, sub-acid;
quality very good. This is one of the few most desirable varieties for Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Iowa, Nebraska, as well as the Eastern and Middle States. In season it differs somewhat, ac¬
cording to locality; in New York and neighboring states its season is December to February,
and owing to its early bearing qualities it is planted largely as a filler.
THE RELIABLE R. I. GREENING APPLE
RHODE ISLAND GREENING— This large and superior winter apple is famous over a large extent
of country, and is more highly prized for cooking and eating than any other variety. It is a
good keeper but will keep better if picked early.

LOMBARD PLUMS— TREE HARDY AND PRODUCTIVE
RED JUNE — A consensus of the opinions of those
who have had actual experience with the va¬
riety shows that it closely follows Abun¬
dance and Burbank in popularity. The color
is a mottled garnet-red overlaid with thin but
very distinct and delicate bloom. July.
YORK STATE PRUNE— A superior strain of the
German Prune. Known in some sections as
Fellemberg or Italian prune. The most widely
grown of all plums. In our opinion the most
profitable prune for orchard purposes and a
variety that should be in every home garden.
It is finely flavored whether eaten out of
hand, stewed or cured as a prune. In
cooking it changes to a dark wine
color, very attractive in appearance,
with a most pleasant sprightly flavor.
LOMBARD (Purple) — A great favorite as
it adapts itself to widely different soils
and climates and does well where other
varieties would not thrive. Robust,
healthy, productive and a regular bear¬
er. Extremely hardy. Skin dark pur¬
plish red overspread with a thick
bloom. Flesh yellowish, firm and sweet.
Freestone. Ripens in late August.
MONARCH— A very handsome, large, rich,
purple plum that has attained popular¬
ity more quickly than any other plum
of recent introduction. Flesh golden
yellow, juicy and sweet. Trees hardy
and productive. Ripens in October.
Abundance — The chief asset, which has giv¬
en the variety its great popularity, is
its name, abundance in fruit. Tree
bears early in season being a pinkish
red changing to a darker red mottled
with thin bloom. August.
BRADSHAW — The trees grow large and well
formed, bear regularly and heavily. The
plums are large, attractive in appearance,
being a light purplish red changing to dark
reddish at maturity, which occurs in July.
Burbank — Is handsomely colored dark red over a
yellow ground. It is a very desirable variety
for home plantations in New York, bearing
early in July.
Yellow Egg — Golden yellow covered with thick
bloom.
NIAGARA— Of large size and first rate flavor;
color dark blue. Good bearer; not liable to
rot. Ripens about August 1st.

Belle of Georgia — Large; white, with red cheek;
flesh white, firm and of excellent flavor.
Tree very productive. Early July.
ROCHESTER EARLY YELLOW PEACH
ELBERTA — A valuable, large peach of good
quality. The best orchard variety, and valu¬
able also for planting in the garden. Elberta
is hardier in bud than many varieties, there¬
fore a more uniform cropper. Elberta is
large, yellow, with red cheek, juicy and high-
flavored, flesh yellow; freestone. Season
medium early.
ROCHESTER (Yellow, Freestone) — A remarkable
new early peach which seems to combine the
high quality of the Early Crawford with the
productiveness of the Elberta. Generally
recognized as the best early variety. Coming
into the market as it does about two weeks
ahead of Early Crawford, it commands not
only the highest price but a ready sale. An
early bearer, often producing fruit the year
after planting. Not only an ideal home or¬
chard variety but an excellent commercial
peach as well. Makes a great combination
with Elberta. The fruit is large, yellow mot¬
tled with red in color, with thick, firm, juicy
flesh, rich and sweet in flavor. The trees are

EARLY CRAWFORD PEACHES (REDUCED)
CRAWFORD’S EARLY — A magnificent large yellow peach of good quality. Tree vigorous and pro¬
lific; its size, beauty and productiveness make it one of the most popular varieties. Season be¬
ginning of September. This valuable peach has long been a favorite for large size, beauty and
quality of fruit. Most people when they buy peaches ask for Crawfords.
CRAWFORD’S LATE — Of large size; skin yellow
or greenish yellow, with dull red cheek; flesh
yellow. Tree vigorous; moderately produc¬

NIAGARA PEACH — The fruit of the Niagara
peach is much like that of Early Crawford in
appearance, being large, oval, yellow with
brilliant red cheeks. The flavor is rich and
piquant, reminding one of the very best
peaches he ever ate. Season medium early.
Carman — A very hardy peach, ripening at same
time as Early Rivers, yet almost as large as
Elberta. Skin pale yellow with blush on
sunny side; flesh white, tender, sweet and
melting. Ships well. August.
J. H. HALE (Yellow, Freestone) — A notable va¬
riety of recent introduction, unusually large
in size of fruit and very handsome. Largely
advertised as a rival to Elberta for commer¬

not prolific enough to compete with that
grand old variety. Of a deep golden-yellow

BARTLETT KING OF STANDARD PEAR TREES— PLANT THEM
BAETLETT — Large, coloring when fully ripe to
waxen yellow with red blush; juicy, melt¬
ing, highly flavored. The tree bears early
and abundantly. May be grown either as
dwarf or standard, but succeeds best as
standard. Aside from the fact that it bears
early, regularly and abundantly, the Bartlett
pear is justly popular on account of its size,
beauty and excellence. It originated in
Berkshire, Eng., about 1770. Aug. and Sept.
Beckel — Small size; yellowish russet, with red
cheek; flesh whitish, buttery, very juicy and
melting. A prolific bearer. Sept, to Oct.
Kieffer — Large to very large, skin yellow, with a
light vermilion cheek; flesh brittle, very
juicy, with a marked musky aroma; good
quality. It is unfortunate that the merits of
this fruit have been underestimated from
the haste in which it is hurried to market in
an immature condition, and often before it
has attained the proper size.
ANJOU — For late fall and early winter use. there
is no better variety. Quality equal to Bart¬
lett. A close second to Bartlett in public fa¬
vor. Distributes its fruit well, and stands
up under a load better than Bartlett.

EARLY RICHMOND CHERRIES (REDUCED SIZE)
EARLY RICHMOND — One
of the most valuable
and popular cherries,
unsurpassed for cook¬

good old variety that
yields such marvelous
crops in the gardens.
The most hardy of all
varieties, uninjured by
the coldest winters.
Tree slender in growth,
' with a roundish spread¬
ing head, exceedingly
productive. Ripens
through June. The
cherry tree bears al¬
most every year, and is
an easy fruiter. For
many years Dansville
has been the largest
cherry growing section
of the U. S., while the
majority of nursery¬
men are buyers instead
of growers. The cherry
is greatly improved by
cultivation and the use
of fertilizers. Fertiliz¬
ers make the tree vig¬
orous and fruit less
liable to decay.

THE MOST POPULAR CHERRY, LARGE MONTMORENCY, HARDY AND PRODUCTIVE
MONTMORENCY (Large) — The most popular of all hardy cherries for market and home use. Thia
cherry is planted largely in all parts of the country. The fruit is in great demand by canning
factories and others, and sells at fancy prices. Montmorency has been growing in popularity all
over the country each year, so that it has been almost impossible to grow trees fast enough to
keep up with the demand. It is of large size, light red in color, stem rather short. The tree
is very hardy and a vigorous grower. The trees bear fruit soon after planting. I visited a
friend last summer who has a large orchard of Montmorency cherries in bearing. The trees
have been planted only a few years, and yet they were laden with the most beautiful fruit.
Best Sweet Cherries
BLACK TARTARIAN (Black Oxheart)— Very
large; bright purplish black; half tender;
juicy, very rich. Tree a remarkably vig¬

red; tender and delicious. Tree vigorous

The Best Varieties of Grapes
The grape is one of our most delicious fruits. Contrary to common opinion it does not
demand a special or particular kind of trellis. We have seen vines bear by the bushel
growing on a garden or yard fence. Hardy, thrifty, free of disease, the grape is our standby.
The grape is the most healthful of all fruits, and is
most highly esteemed for its many and varied uses.
Grapes can be grown by any one who has a garden or
yard, and a little time to give to it. The vines can be
trained up the side of a building, or a garden fence or
over an arbor, but the more profitable way is to grow
them over a wire trellis.
Pruning. Annual and careful pruning is essential to
the production of good grapes. If the roots are called
upon to support too much wood, they cannot bring to
maturity a fine crop of fruit. By proper pruning you
concentrate the vigor of a vine into a smaller number
of canes and clusters, which it can perfect. The prun¬
ing should be done from November to March, while the
vines are entirely dormant and before the sap starts.

three feet apart in rows; for market, in rows six feet apart, with plants three feet apart
in the rows. Give the plants the same cultivation as for raspberries.
ELDORADO. The best all-round berry yet pro¬
duced, combining nearly all the good quali¬
ties found in a blackberry. The vines are
very hardy and vigorous, enduring the win¬
ters of the far Northwest without injury, and

Garden Roots — Asparagus and Rhubarb
Cultivation — See that the ground is well drained, natural¬
ly or otherwise, work it up fine and deep and make it very
rich with well rotted barnyard manure. Locate the plants
eight inches apart in rows three feet apart. Spread out
the roots in a trench made deep enough to permit their
crowns to be covered with three or four inches of mellow
earth. Give the bed liberal dressings of manure at in¬
tervals, and except near the sea-shore, three pounds of
salt per square yard early every spring. Do not cut for
use until the plants have grown two seasons.
Palmetto — Until recently we believed that Conover’s Col¬
ossal was the best sort known, but we are now forced
to concede that the Palmetto is earlier and a better
yielder, and more even and better in growth, and that
it will eventually supersede the old favorite. The
average bunches contain 155 shoots, measuring thir¬
teen and one-half inches in circumference, weighing
nearly two pounds. It has been tested both north and
south, and has proved entirely successful in every in¬
stance.
Barr’s Mammoth — This is one of the finest varieties of
asparagus ever offered, being large and early. Stalks
are large, tender, and of light color.
Conover’s Colossal — This variety is superior in size and
quality, remarkably tender and fine flavored. Valu¬
able for market and home use.
PRICE FOR ALL VARIETIES OF ASPARAGUS NAMED ABOVE
Extra Strong 2 Year Roots 25 for $1.00, 100 for $2.00, 1,000 for $12.00.
Rhubarb (Pieplant)
The first thing in the spring to furnish material for pie and sauce. Its
health-giving, tonic properties make it invaluable as a spring regulator.
Easy to grow. Should be in every home garden. Plant in rows 4 feet
apart with roots 3 feet apart in row.
Myatt’s Linnaeus — The best variety for general use. Stems large, tender
and of refined flavor. Yields abundantly. Prices of strong two-year
roots, 15 cents each; 10 for $1.50; 100 for $10.00.
Horse Radish
English or Common — The variety in general use. Will stand a great deal
of hardship and persist in soil year after year. Does best in deep,
rich, cool soil. As high as ten tons have been received from an acre.
Plant in rows 3 feet apart and 1 foot apart in row.
Price Strong Sets: 10 for $1.00; 100 for $6.00.
New Washington Asparagus — This exceedingly resistant variety was de¬
veloped by the United States Department of Agriculture. It is the
finest of the large type asparagus. Its quick growing habit makes it
extremely tender. It is vigorous in growth, of a deep green color,
with a purple tinge, a decidedly good variety for the commercial
grower and unexcelled for the home garden. The flavor is excellent,
having a peculiar and pleasing sweetness. Should give ,this variety a
trial. Price, Extra Strong 2 Year Roots, 25 for $1.00; 100 for $3.00;

HARDY BUSH HYDRANGEA, PANICULATA GRANDIFLORA
Hardy Bush Hydrangea (Paniculata Grandiflora) — We urge our friends to plant the Hydrangea.
Plant it for the following reasons: It is hardy, enduring the severest winters outdoors with¬
out protection. It is easily transplanted, not one in a thousand dying. It never fails to blos¬
som the first year planted; no matter how small the plant, it immediately buds out in great pro¬
fusion of flowers. When the specimens first open they are greenish white, later they turn to a
pure white, and still later to a delicate pink.
PRICE STRONG 2 YEAR BUSHES, 18 to 24 inches, 45 cents each, 2 for 55 cents, 10 for $2.75.
BARBERRY [Berberis] Red Leaved Barberry.
(Berberis Thunbergi Atropurpurea). A
highly important introduction among shrubs,
giving us for the first time a practical easily
grown shrub of medium height, with good,
distinctly red foliage. This must prove a
boon to all types of landscaping, where
studied contrasts are to be worked out with
the shrub foliage depended on for colors.
Atropurpurea is an exact reproduction of
Thunbergi in every way — habit, leaf-formation
and fruiting, but — whereas the original is a
deep green from spring until fall, this variety
starts off in its first foliage a warm bronzy
red; the heat of summer intensifying its red
brilliancy; autumn adding other tints to its
richness. The abundant scarlet berries per¬
sist throughout the winter along the spiny
twigs. A sunny exposure is necessary to
bring out and retain its full red color.
Price, strong 2 year Bushes, 12 to 18 inches,
60 cents each, 2 for 70 cents.
Japan Barberry. (Berberis Thunbergi.) There
is no shrub in existence so generally planted
or more practical for all purposes where beau¬
tiful foliage effect is desired than this. It is
dwarf growing, uniformly bushy and rounded
in form, susceptible to formal pruning, with
small, numerous leaves densely covering the
thorny twigs. These give it paramount im¬
portance for use as a filler, and edging for
shrubbery groups; as a foundation screen in
front of porches; and, above all, as a compact,
impassable, hardy, low hedge for confining
lawns or dividing properties. Although vari¬
able in accordance with seasonable conditions,
the autumn foliage is scarlet or bronze, and
the branches studded with crimson fruits.
Price, strong 2 year Bushes, well branched,
18 to 24 inches, 20c each; 10 for $1.75; 100 for
$15.00. 2 to 3 feet, 25c each; 10 for $2,00;
100 for $18,00.
If ordered sent by mail add to each bush to cover cost of mailing.

Received your catalogue and it is just
what I have been waiting for, as I want
to put in more trees and shrubs this
Spring.
I receive several catalogues every
Spring but I always wait for yours be¬
fore ordering, as I can save money by
waiting and your trees have all done
fine with me, so why pay twice the money
for trees, when you do not have to.
The trees that I bought of you ten
years ago have paid for themselves sev¬
eral times over.
Very truly yours.
