OUR COMPLETE PRICE LIST FOR FALL 1936 
GAGE ELBERTA A Disease Resistant Bud Sport of the Famous Elberta 
(Excerpts from detailed description given March issue 1929 Journal of Heredity, written by H. W. Anderson and M. J. Dorsey, University of Illinois.) 
This splendid peach originated in the orchards of Mr. John A. Gage near Texico, Ill. It lias been tested now for a number of years under varied condi¬ 
tions on a commercial basis, and the many merits of the peach are becoming more pronounced each year. Possibly its greatest recommendation is the fact 
that up to the present time it lias proven almost entirely immune to bacterium pruni or what is more commonly known as bacteriosis. The tree is 
very spreading in growth habits but in spite of the wide angles the limbs do not break with heavy loads of fruit because they are well buttressed at the 
union with the trunk and the wood is very tough. It is equally as thrifty a grower as the Elberta and looks very much ljke the typical Elberta tree except 
that the leaves are apparently thicker and darker in color. Gage Elberta blooms from two to four days after Elberta and apparently has a very strong 
blossom setting a crop of fruit under unfavorable conditions. The fruit is so near the Elberta that only an expert can distinguish the difference. It ripens 
from two to three days later than Elberta but may be picked at the same time if desired. It is creating a great deal of interest and proving very desirable 
in some test ochards in the South. The fact that it is Elberta type—Elberta season—AND PROVING ALMOST IMMUNE TO BACTERIUM PRUNI AND 
Arsenic injury are enough to recommend it to any planter. 
Our supply is limited to about ten thousand trees, a part of which are yearling stock and balance June Bud, so do not hesitate in ordering whatever 
quantity you want at the earliest possible time. Prices given on inside of folder in general listing of Peach trees.

FALL PLANTING 
Our years of experience in the Nursery and orchard business have taught us that every one should do their planting in the FALL, whenever it is 
possible for them to do so and their climatic conditions are not too severe and where they can secure well matured stock to plant. We do not recom¬ 
mend that plantings be made on land which is inclined to heave from the effects of frost unless the plants can be heavily mulched or are protected 
by drawing a 1 mound of earth about them to help hold them. We do especially recommend the planting of fruit and shade trees and small berry 
plants except Strawberry plants. i The roots will heal where cut when dug, the winter rains will settle the dirt well about the roots, tin; tree will be 
ready to start with the first movement of sap in the Spring and you will have 25% more growth and almost a perfect stand on the planting. Then 
matured and if you are dealing with the right kind of a nursery they won't shin ’till the stock is right. 
OUK STOCK SOLD TO ORCHARD I STS LAST FALL PROVED ITS HARDINESS IN NEARLY ALL SECTIONS OF THE COUNTRY WHERE IT

ROVES THE VALUE OF RECEIVING WELL GROWN, AND WELL MATURED TREES SUCH AS WE GROW AND DELIVER.
