THE STANWICK IS THE 
The tree is a v$ry strong grower,’ often attaining a height of seventy-five 
feet and a spread of fifty feet. It is a regular and heavy bearer and has been 
proven to be a very profitable variety both as a shipping and drying product. 
The fruit is large, having a rough but thin skin, of a deep violet color; quite 
sweet, but not of a strong flavor. 
Ihe one great advantage of this fig, as a market product over other figs, is 
the fact that it seldom sours. Where one is desirous of growing figs for 
shipping and for supplying local markets this variety is highly recommended. 
1 San Pedro Black is the largest fig known and is used 
Dan redro Black chiefly for table use. The tree is an upright, thrifty 
grower, and attains large size. The skin of the fruit is very smooth, of violet 
black color shading to green at the neck. The pulp is of a coppery red color 
sweet and delicious. 
.For those desiring an early fig in their home orchard collection or for sup¬ 
plying local markets we can recommend nothing better. Ripens early August. 
White Adriatic 
Wkit^ A J • Ts Probably more widely known and more extensively 
vvime /Adriatic grown than any other fig. The tree is a healthy strong 
grower and has been cultivated very extensively in the interior valleys and 
foothill sections of California. When planted on suitable soil under proper 
conditions it has proven to be of great value to fig orchardists as a drying 
variety. We have known of instances where the Adriatic has yielded as much 
as six and seven tons of the dried product to the acre. 
The fruit is of medium size, roundish, with a medium neck. Skin is very 
gre * nish , ln sh ade, turning to yellow when ripe. The pulp is of a white

NECTARINES 
A delicious, smooth-skinned fruit which thrives best in the interior valleys 
of the State. In habit of growth and general appearance the tree is hard to 
distinguish from the peach. The fruit is of exceptionally fine flavor and when 
dried or canned is highly prized by fruit lovers. The Nectarines are budded 
on peach root and should be planted in light or loam soils. Thorough prepa¬ 
ration of the soil by plowing and cultivation should be done before the trees 
are set. They should be planted in regular orchard form, 20 to 24 feet apart-
