Delicious Peaches—Easy to Grow 
Elberta Peaches 
There is no reason why you shouldn’t grow 
your own peaches and pick this delicious fruit 
fresh from your own trees. The trees take but 
little room and come into bearing early. Many 
plant peaches in between the apples for the 
peaches will have paid for themselves by the 
time the apple trees come into bearing. We 
know today with one or two exceptions that this 
fruit can be grown at a good profit in every state 
in the union. You can plant them on any soil 
that will produce an average farm crop. A won¬ 
derful shade tree because they are so highly or¬ 
namental when loaded with pink blooms. Our 
trees are all thrifty and will come into bearing 
the second or third year. Set them about 15 feet 
apart each way.

MAYFLOWER. A bright yellow freestone. The 
fruit is medium size and a beautiful shade of 
crimson. Semi-cling. Often called “Frost Proof” 
because it blooms late enough to miss the frost. 
CHAMPION. An unusually large freestone peach 
of excellent flavor. It is a sweet, rich, juicy 
peach with white meat. Very hardy in the cen¬ 
tral states. 
ELBERTA. The most popular peach of all. It is a sure bearer and is 
always loaded with large yellow red-cheeked fruit. Millions of them 
are grown every year and you too should have this peach. 
J. H. HALE. Larger in size than Elberta. It is golden yellow with a 
deep red cheek. Some consider the flavor the best of all peaches. 
The flesh is solid yellow. 
ROCHESTER. A deep yellow peach with red blush. Very juicy and 
sweet. Flesh red near pit. Freestone. 
HEATH CLING, Large round juicy peach that’s especially good for 
pickling. 
GOLDEN JUBILEE. An enormous new golden peach that ripens 
extra early. Its flavor is new. Rich and syrupy.

Choice Pear Trees 
Even the smallest yard can have a few pear trees. They are 
easy to grow and the fruit is a delicious addition to our menus. 
BARTLETT. Golden pears with pink cheeks. This variety is grown 
commercially for fancy pears. Always a marked demand. 
KIEFFER. Famous for its handsome appearance. Keeps wonder¬ 
fully. Trees bear very heavily always.

sweet and delicious to eat right off the tree.

Quality Plum Trees 
Plums certainly add a “zip” to a meal. What can beat 
“plum butter” or preserves? You can depend on them 
getting a hearty welcome at the table. It’s hard to decide 
which is the best—the red ones, purple ones or golden, so be 
sure to try them all. The new varieties are all large and 
meaty. Plant 20 feet apart.

Red outside. The fruit is enormous and the firm golden flesh is 
crisp and sweet and juicy. 
OPATA. When only two or three years old the trees are often 
loaded with luscious, reddish purple fruit. It is absolutely hardy 
anywhere in America and will thrive in any kind of soil. 
SAP A. Another very hardy introduction of Prof. Hansen. The 
fruit is dark purple with purple flesh. Medium size but the trees 
are loaded with clusters of fruit. 
HANSKA or APRICOT PLUM. The yellow flesh and flavor of an 
apricot with the zest of a plum. Delicious, 
Sapa Plum
