PEACH TREES 
Peach trees can be grown on any land that will grow a good crop of com or potatoes, but will do better on a sandy loam 
in preference to a heavy clay soil. To secure heavy, vigorous and healthy trees the ground should be kept clean and mellow 
and should receive an occasional dressing of wood ashes. They should also be pruned yearly, all the dead and useless wood 
cut out, and the light and air let in. 
The trees should be planted 16 feet apart each way, and at this distance 170 trees will be required for each acre. 
Peach trees make very desirable fillers in an apple orchard. They come into bearing when very young and will pay for 
the care and maintenance of the apple trees and net a handsome profit besides; and by the time the apple trees need the room, 
they will have borne their full crop and can be dug up without any loss. We secure buds from bearing trees which insure their 
being true to name.

Niagara. (Freestone.) Ripens here September 1st. 
- A new yellow flesh variety of unusually large 
size and attractive appearance. Fruit a beautiful golden 
yellow blushed with brilliant red. Resembles the Elberta, 
but is larger in size. It has been thoroughly tested by ex¬ 
tensive orchard planting near Rochester, N. Y., and found 
to be an unusually fine commercial variety. The quality 
and flavor of this peach are exceptional. The trees are good 
strong, vigorous growers and very hardy. The foliage is 
very tough, being almost the character of leather, and for 
this reason the Niagara is almost immune to fungous diseases 
of any kind. It is a good bearer. Prof. Van Deman says: 
"I have heard the Niagara peach spoken of in the highest 
terms. Those who have fruited it are enthusiastic over Ni¬ 
agara peach. I have seen and eaten Niagara. It is of large 
size, beautiful, and better in quality than Elberta.” 
We find Niagara, on ac¬ 
count of its size and appear¬ 
ance and good quality, is a 
splendid variety for the home 
garden. See front cover for 
photograph of this variety in 
natural colors. 
Niagara Peaches 
The top peach is a full sized Elberta. This shows how unusually large and attractive the 
Niagara peach is. 
Quality First 
There is no business in 
which quality counts for 
more than in growing, grad¬ 
ing and shipping trees. The 
trees must not only be well 
grown under high and inten¬ 
sive cultivation, but must be 
honestly graded and true to 
name. Green’s Nursery Co., 
Rochester, N. Y., have been 
growing quality trees for 
about forty years. When 
about to place your order, 
ask the man who has bought 
our trees. There are 100,000 
of these people in this country.
