THE FREMONT NURSERY, FREMONT, OHIO 
/f 
THE SALWA7 PEACH 
Of local origin but one of the best; yellow red cheek; good 
size and large if fruit is thinned; heavy bearer and hardy 
tree. Ripens nearly with Elberta. 
SALWAY—Fruit large, roundish; deep yellow, with a rich 
marbled brownish red check; flesh yellow, juicy, rich and 
sugary. A new English variety, a good keeper and promising 
highly as a late showy market sort. Freestone. . First of 
October. Too late in the north except near large bodies of 
water. 
SMOCK FREE—The old strain of Smock, not as large as the 
Beers Smock but a much heavier bearer. Last of September. 
\ SMOCK (Beers)—An improved strain of Smock, being larger 
i than the preceding but not generally considered as heavy a 
bearer. We are growing several strains of this variety. One 
known as the Kilkens, another as Thompson, which are bear¬ 
ing heavily in some orchards. A leading market variety. Sept. 
STUMP—Very large, roundish; skin white, with a bright red 
cheek; flesh white, juicy and good. Freestone. Last of Sep¬ 
tember. 
ST. JOHN—Nearly as large as Crawford, fully equal in color. 
Fruit round, brilliant, showy; one of the earliest yellow 
peaches. August. 
Also Foster, Mayflower, Globe, Marshall, Mt. Rose, Old 
Mixon Free, Slappey, Sneed, Triumph and others. 
MULBERRIES 
The mulberry is valuable as an ornamental 
shade tree and the fruit is quite popular in 
i.oiiio sections. It i , especially valuable in poul¬ 
try parks. 
DOWNING AND NEW AMERICAN—Are by 
long odds the two best varieties of Mulberries 
to plant for fruiting purposes. Both are very 
large, line berries, black when fully ripe and 
continue to mature fruit for six to eight weeks 
in midsummer. The Downing is too temler a 
tree for our northern winters and we therefore 
recommend the New American which is much 
Him o hardy, and just as good in every way. 
RUSSIAN A valuable tree to plant for posts 
or timber, hut fruit is usually too small to make 
it a desirable fruiting variety. Being a seed¬ 
ling, however, one is apt to lind a groat varia¬ 
tion in different trees and sometimes a tree is 
found which produces fluo fruit. It is al¬ 
ways ii valuable tree to plant near berry plan¬ 
tations to attract the birds from the more val¬ 
uable crops of raspberries, blackberries, cur¬ 
rants, etc. 
NEW AMERICAN MULBERRY 
THE CHAMPION QUINCE 
QUINCES 
In quinces wo have a very desirable fruit. 
. is used a great deal for preserves and can¬ 
ning especially with other fruits. A small part 
of quince will impart the qirincc flavor to three 
or four times ns many apples. Quince syrup 
is very delicious, oven excelling the finest 
maple syrup. 
BOURGEAT—Tree n remarkably strong grow- 
_ ’ sur Pnssmg all others, yielding immense 
(.lops, i'ruit of large size, round; rich golden 
Ln„° r ’> sni °oth; very tender when cooked; has 
been kopt till February in good condition. 
CHAMPION-—A prolific and constant bearer, 
Iruit averaging larger than the Orange, quality 
equally tine, and a long keeper; bears extremelv 
young. Ripens late. 
MEECH—A vigorous grower and immensely 
productive. The fruit is large, lively orange 
yellow, of great beauty and delightful fragrance: 
its cooking qualities are unsurpassed. 
ORANGE (Apple)—Fruit large, round, with a 
short neck; color bright yellow; flesh firm and 
tough until cooked, when it becomes tender, 
juicy and of excellent flavor. We recommend 
tho Ornngo as the best all around varietv to 
plant.
