ing nectarine for many years. It is used for ship¬

some extent for shipping. One of the 
very best in quality and should be in 
every home orchard.

our leading 'Tate midsummer" canning 
varieties and popular in all cling peach 
districts. It has many of the popular 
features of the canning cling; large in 
size with a flesh of clear yellow and a 
small pit. Tree is vigorous and produc¬

favorite with canners and growers 
alike.

with Paloro but ripens a few days later.

THE SULLIVAN CLING 
(Plant Patent No. 186) 
The new cling introduced by us 
two years ago to take the place 
of the Phillips. The Sullivan origi¬ 
nated in the peach orchards of 
Mr. C. E. Sullivan in 1930 and has 
been under close observation 
ever since. Consistently heavy 
crops borne on vigorous trees re¬ 
sistant to rust and mildew are 
convincing evidence of the Sulli¬ 
van Cling's superiority in the 
canning cling field. Ripening at 
Phillips time, the fruit of this 
marvelous new variety possesses 
a firm flesh colored an even, 
bright yellow clear through to the 
pit. It hangs on the tree well 
and sizes top grade. (Add 5 
cents royalty to prices for cling 
peaches.) 
County because of its lower suscepti¬ 
bility to mildew. 
Phillips. September. At one time Cali¬ 
fornia's leading cling peach, but losing 
its popularity rapidly. Still a good yel¬ 
low cling for the home orchard. The 
fruit is large, the tree a strong grower 
and heavy producer. 
Seller's Orange. August. The largest 
cling peach, used for home canning, 
but not commercially because of its 
large size. A fine home orchard variety. 
Sims. August. A large, clear yellow 
cling, producing excellent crops and 
very popular with canners and growers 
in all peach sections. It is a good 
variety for Southern California as it is 
resistant to delayed foliation resulting 
from mild winters.
