Apricots 
The apricot is one of the most delicious of all fruits. 
It requires the same kind of soil and treatment as the 
peach. It is, however, a favorite for the curculio, which 
must be destroyed by spraying with a solution of Paris 
Green within a week after the blossoms fall and again 
in two and four weeks later. The same treatment for 
plums. 
Only the hardiest varieties are offered below. Plant 
fifteen feet apart each way.
