PE ACHES 
The ease with which Peach trees may be cultivated , the short period before 
they become productive, with the immense demand for the fruit, and the 
facility with which it may be shipped to distant markets, make Peach grow- 
ing extremely profitable. To secure healthy, vigorous and fruitful trees the 
ground must be kept clean and mellow, and it should receive an occasional 
covering of wood ashes. It should be remembered that Peaches are all borne 
on wood of the previous season's growth, and that this makes it absolutely 
necessary to prune the trees yearly, to remove dead branches, to let in light 
and air, and to keep the trees in good shape to produce bearing wood.
