In planting a Cherry orchard care should be 
taken not to plant trees too close together; select 
a dry soil for the Cherry, as a rule, although it 
is so hardy a tree that it will thrive in a great 
variety of soil, yet a good sandy, or gravelly 
loam is best. Use same care in planting as other 
trees. 
Orchardists are resorting more and more to 
the planting of varieties of Cherries that are 
strong pollenizers. Experience seems to demon¬ 
strate that such varieties as Black Oregon, Black 
Tartarian. Black Republican, and Centennial are 
the best varieties to use for this purpose. Usually 
about one in every nine trees has proven to be 
the right proportion to use of these pollenizers.

The New Babcock Peach 
Price same as Rio Oso Gem 
The fruit is almost round, somewhat above 
medium size, and the color ranges from a beauti¬ 
ful pink to deep crimson. The skin is excep¬ 
tionally smooth and is almost like a Nectarine 
in this respect. We highly recommend the Bab¬ 
cock either for home planting or as a profitable 
early market peach. Early June.

Pears 
The pear thrives over a wide range—being able 
to stand more summer heat than the apple. The 
French pear root also withstands heavy wet soils 
much better than most fruits. The popular Bart¬ 
lett rules supreme as a summer pear, but some 
of our fall and winter varieties are even finer in 
quality and flavor, and all lovers of fine pears 
should include some of these in their home gar¬ 
dens. Unlike most other fruits, the pear develops 
much better quality when ripened off the tree, 
and the fruit should be picked before it begins to 
soften. Pears are planted from 20 to 25 feet 
apart.
