‘Teaches Tear the Rohird Rfear 
Peaches come into bearing quicker than any other tree fruit, under proper conditions giv¬ 
ing a crop the third year. A few trees won’t cost as much as you probably pay for peaches 
in ofle year. And none are so delicious as those freshly picked when fully ripened on the 
tree. A sandy loam or gravelly soil is best but the peach adapts itself to almost any well 
drained soil. Plant 25x25 ft. Sometimes they are planted 18x18 but 25x25 is better.
