Improved Early Spanish 
VINE PEACH 
In the West and Northwest, where fruit is 
scarce, the Vine Peach is becoming popular. 
It is easily cultivated, wonderfully prolific, and 
can be used in every way in which you would 
use a peach, except that it is not usually liked raw. The vine on which they are borne is some¬ 
what similar to the muskmelon vine, and requires the same cultivation. The fruit is about the 
size of a large peach, and is of a bright orange yellow color, somewhat russety. A jar of these 
cut in halves and cooked in syrup presents a beautiful and tempting appearance. Pkt., 10c; oz., 
20c; 14 lb., 50c, postpaid.
