canner being dry and firm in texture, and holding its shape well. 

 The Lemon Cling is a choice favorite, as it has the right color and 

 is in every way a desirable canner. It is much better than the 

 Smock cling, as that peach at the seed has a deep red color and 

 when canned does not look so appetizing as the color destroys its 

 beauty.

A WORD ABOUT OUR JUNE BUDDED PEACH TREES. 



They are grown from natural Tennessee peach seed and on 

 land that has never grown peach trees, and '-they are clean and 

 healthy. 



A June budded tree is one that is budded in June, the same 

 season it sprouts from the seed. After being budded it is cut 

 back and makes a growth from July 1st till frost, the roots only 

 being one year's growth and the bud about 90 days growth, this 

 gives us a well developed tree with lots of fibrous roots. When 

 taken up the fibers all come up and you get the entire root3 and 

 tap root not cut. It is of great importance to have the tap root. 

 There are orchards we sold four years ago, June budded trees that 

 bore a heavy crop the past season. The customers will not plant 

 anything but June buds again.

Conn., April 15th, 1899. 

 Messrs. J. G.Harrison & Sons. Gentlemen: The box of peach trees was re- 

 ceived this flay in number one order and were very satisfactory indeed both in 

 quality of stock also manner of packing. I extend you my thanks for same also 

 for your promptness in filling my order. If all is well next spring you will 

 doubtless receive another order from me. Hoping that you may live many more 

 years to grow as good trees as you sent me, I remain hastily but most respect- 

 fully yours, Frank H. LoDmis.
