THE 1949-1950 PEACH TREE SUPPLY 
Abnormal rains throughout the 1948 season in some 
producing areas and dry conditions in others caused a 
shortage in seedling stock. Buds set during 1948 season 
failed to winter well and as a result the nurseries 
throughout the country have the smallest lot of peach 
trees to offer in many years. 
Reports from southern areas indicate a great shortage 
of June Buds due to lack of seedlings. 
We predict many variety shortages, 
small trees. 
Bountiful Ridge Nurseries will have good supplies on 
both regular and nematode resistant stock in the upper- 
grades in the popular varieties—smaller grades will be 
very short. 
WE FEEL THE LARGE COMMERCIAL GROWERS 
should plan carefully and buy early to avoid disappoint- 
ment, as the overall picture in Nursery trees indicates 
a decrease of 30 to 45% over last year. Many of the 
newer varieties are in short supply and will be absorbed 
early this fall. DON’T WAIT— BUY EARLY — BUY

DIXIRED (a) 
A NEW EARLY YELLOW PEACH 
RIPENS TWO WEEKS BEFORE GOLDEN JUBILEE 
ATTRACTIVE OVERALL RED COLOR—GOOD 
QUALITY—FIRM SHIPPER—PRODUCTIVE 
Dixired is a product of the U. S. D. A. Experiment 
Station at Beltsville, Md., and tested largely in Georgia 
and South Carolina as FV 5-70. 
It is a clingstone, medium size, round with light pu- 
bescence. About three-fourths of the surface is covered 
with a bright attractive red blush. Flesh is yellow, 
firm but melting, medium textured and of good flavor. 
The outstanding characteristics of Dixired are its un- 
usual firmness and slow rate of softening for an early 
peach, plus an attractive appearance. The fruit acquires 
color long before it is ready to pick. 
Dixired is recommended for trial as an early shipping 
peach. Trees limited.
