Belle of Georgia Peaches. 
PEACHES—Continued 
Lorentz. A yellow-fleshed freestone, and its 
handsome appearance has been a surprise to 
all who have seen it. Does not crack, is very 
firm, keeps well, and is a fine shipper. August 
20th to September 1st. F. 
Apricots 
This beautiful and excellent fruit needs only to be known to be appre¬ 
ciated. It ripens a month or more before the best early peaches and par¬ 
takes largely of their luscious flavor. The tree is even more hardy than 
the peach and requires about tbe same treatment. To make a crop more 
certain, plant on the north or west side of a wall, fence or building. 
Alexander. An immense bearer; fruit of large size; oblong; yellow 
flecked with red; flavor sweet and delicious. Tree hardy; one of the 
best. July 1st. 
Early Golden (Dubois Early Golden). Small; pale orange; flesh orange, 
juicy and sweet; productive. Last of June. 
Large Early. Large, excellent, early. 
Moorpark. One of the largest and finest Apricots; yellow with red cheek, 
flesh rather firm, orange, parting from the stone; sweet, juicy and rich, 
with a luscious flavor. July. 
Nectarines 
The Nectarine requires the same culture, soil and management as the 
peach, from which it differs only in having a smooth skin, like the plum. 
We can supply the following varieties: Downton, Elruge, Boston and 
Red Roman.

C. 
The Quince is attracting a great deal of attention as a market fruit. 
Scarcely any fruit will pay better in the orchard. The tree is hardy and 
compact in growth, requires but little space, is productive, gives regular 
crops, and comes early into bearing. The fruit is much sought after for 
canning for winter use. When put up in the proportion of about one quart 
of Quinces to four of other fruit imparts to them a most delicious flavor. 
It flourishes in any good garden soil, which should be kept mellow and 
well enriched. Prune off all 
dead and surplus branches, 
and thin out the fruit if 
bearing too freely. 
Champion. Very large, 
greenish - yellow; flesh 
cooks as tender as an ap¬ 
ple and without hard 
spots or core; flavor deli¬ 
cate imparting an exquis¬ 
ite quince taste and odor 
to any fruit with which it 
is cooked. Trees are vig¬ 
orous growers and bear 
heavy crops of superior 
fruit; one of the best for 
sections not subject to 
early frosts. 
Orange. Large, bright gol¬ 
den yellow, fine firm flesh 
and good flavor; one of 
the best for cooking. The 
most popular and exten¬ 
sively cultivated of the 
old varieties. October. Orange Quince. 
Peach Orchards 
A Peacb Orchard, large or small, will pay dividends providing you plant the varieties that will come into ripening in 
order, making it possible for you to have peaches for market from early Summer until late Fall. It is known that the 
Early Peaches bring good prices; the same can be said of the late crop. 
It is of vital importance that when you order Peach Trees from the nursery, you get what you order and nothing 
else. It is disappointing to have planned to have a small orchard of Peach Trees in their order of ripening and when 
they come into bearing be disappointed in the varieties being something you did not want and be an inferior variety. 
TO BUY YOUR TREES FROM A REPUTABLE NURSERY is your best insurance.
