Peach Trees 



Everybody delights in the flavor of a fine, juicy peach. They succeed best 

 on high, dry and well-drained soil, and are a sure crop if planted on northern 

 or western exposure. 



Peaches are borne on wood of the previous season's growth, and it is 

 essential that they should be pruned some almost every season to let in light 

 and air and remove dry branches. Keep your trees in good shape. The 

 ground should not be seeded, but kept in good cultivation. Fertilize with some 

 good soiling crop — oats, rye or cow peas, plowing it under while green. Wood 

 ashes, if you can get them, not piled up around the trees, but scattered well, is 

 a good fertilizer. 



It takes but a short time for them to come into bearing. Keep the trees 

 in good shape and you will be well repaid with good crops of fine fruit.

Grape Vines 



The Grape is one of the most important of the small fruits, not only com- 

 mercially in various sections, but for the home garden. There is no fruit 

 more easily grown in any soil and in any climate in the country. It takes little 

 room in the home garden, for the garden fences can be transformed into 

 trellises, and not only answer their purpose as an enclosure, but will be made 

 more beautiful and attractive when covered with the vines. 



Prices 10c. each; 75c. for 10 ; $6.00 per 100
