A FRUIT ORCHARD PAYS 

 MORE THAN FARM CROPS 



THERE is no question about this. It has been proved time and again in 

 every part of the country. 

 Now listen! You plant an acre of corn or wheat, and how much do 

 you get for the crop? Net, we mean; what's left after you pay for plowing, 

 harrowing, seed, seeding, and threshing? Not enough to buy a harrow, a good 

 harness, or a kitchen stove. 



Now listen again! Do you know that one Apple tree is worth more than an 

 acre of hay? That two trees will give you as much as an acre of grain? That 

 three trees are as profitable as an acre of potatoes? Well, it's a fact — ask any 

 fruit-grower in your neighborhood. Don't take our word alone — ask them. 

 And remember that the prosperous, getting -rich farmer is the fruit-grower. 



For years we have watched the apple and peach market. We grow both fruits, 

 we know what an acre ought to produce, and we know that some sorts are more 

 profitable than others. In Apples there is an even dozen; in Peaches about 

 half that number. We are going to tell you about them.
