R. C. Stump, of Bryan Texas, reports that his Magness pear tree on French seedling rootstock fruited well after only four years in his orchard, along with an adjacent Magness tree of the same age on Quince roots. It has shown no blight in four years. Mr. Stump describes the fruit of Magness as variable, on the small side; shaped like Bartlett, but russeted, delightful to eat, grit free, tender and sweet. When harvested late August to early September in Bryan, the fruit has ripened within two weeks at room temperature.
