Apricots 
Apricots give the best results when planted in a situation where they are protected from the north and 
west by buildings or trees. The Apricot is one of the most delicious fruits grown; therefore a little extra 
care should be given in protecting the blooms from late spring frosts. A smudging on nights when frosts impend 
will save the fruit. As the Apricot is particularly susceptible to the attack of curculio, the fruit should be 
sprayed the same as peaches. The trees must be plantedin high, well-drained ground, and must have clean culti¬ 
vation. The period of maturity extends from the beginning of June to the end of July.
