GAGE COUNTY NURSERIES, BEATRICE, NEBRASKA, 
PEACH TREES 
The peach is such an abundant and early bearer, and the quality of the budded 
sorts we quote so fine, that they should have a place in every orchard. They have 
been very reasonably regular bearers for the past ten years in this locality, and we 
often hear the remark made by those who failed to plant the fruit that they had 
made a mistake in not setting peach along with hardier kinds of fruit. They come 
into bearing nearly or quite as quick.y as small fruits of some kinds, and bear so 
abundantly, that one good crop repays all the cost and labor given them.
