Pallas — Large, flesh white, melting with a 
rich, vinous aroma; profuse annual bearer; as

cheeks, that originated in Limestone County.

tree a rapid grower and very prolific; a seed- 
ling of Chinese Cling. 
Dixie — A seedling from Elberta; large; two 
weeks earlier and a better shipper. Fine 
flavor; beautiful color, yellow with pink cheeks. 
Tree is a fine grower and the best bearer in 
San Marcos, Texas, where it originated. A 
gentleman working in the Wood National Bank 
bought a peach many years ago, and it being 
of such fine flavor and large size, he planted 
the seed just back of the bank building, where 
it grew vigorously, and after bearing, everyone 
seeing it was astonished at the size and good 
color of the fruit, as well as the productiveness 
of the tree. Mr. F. M. Johnson sent us the 
first buds and named it the ‘.‘Dixie” peach. We 
find it to be superior to Elberta in flavor. It 
is the finest peach that ever originated in 
Southwest Texas. Peach is yellow like El- 
berta. 
Bertha — Another fine, large yellow peach; 
originated on our grounds; a seedling of Dixie, 
larger than its parent; ripens ten days after 
Elberta; heavy bearer; largest peach weighed 
eleven ounces. A peach that has come to stay.

stone of excellent flavor. Trees grow and bear 
well; fruit a very good shipper.

A large yellow' lree-stone, red to the pit. The 
peach for the market.

free stone; very prolific. Peaches ripen begin- 
ning of July. Excellent for canning.

There is no fruit tree that bears such an 
abundance of fruit at so early an age as does 
the plum. Many varieties bear the first year 
after planting, and for this single reason should 
be most extensively planted. A plum tree re- 
quires very little care, but for the fact that it 
produces its fruit in such great abundance the
