ON PEACHES AND NECTARINES 
who can enter the field with prospect of success. 
Granted that endowment, however, and a rea- 
sonable comprehension of the principles of plant 
breeding already presented, any intelligent ama- 
teur may undertake experiments in the further 
education of the peach that may well lead to re- 
sults of the highest interest and of notable 
economic importance. 
—The peach with its luscious 
meat, the nectarine with its 
smooth skin, the almond with 
its delightful kernel, and the 
stoneless plum with its un- 
sheathed seed—who will breed 
these together and thus pro- 
duce a unique and valuable 
fruit-nut?
