PLUMS—Zone IV 
(Prunus hybrid species)

planted. A few in your garden, or in the 
rear of your lawn will more than pay 
for the little space they occupy.

PEACHES (Prunus persica) 
Peach trees are easily cultivated and 
the short time they take to come into 
bearing, and the immense demand for 
the fruit makes them extremely profit¬ 
able. Peaches are borne on wood of 
the previous season’s growth, and this 
makes it absolutely essential to some¬ 
what shear back the bearing trees each 
spring. To secure vigorous and fruitful 
trees, the ground must be well drained, 
kept clean and mellow, and the trees in 
thrifty growth. (Each) (lo)

Hyslop—Dark crimson; large. 
Transcendent — Yellow and red-striped; 
large. 
APPLES—Zone III to V 
(Malus pumila, vars.) 
Apples prefer well-drained and fertile 
soil. You cannot expect the best results 
if you plant them in impoverished 
ground. 
As the trees develop you will find it 
best to take out the crossed and chafing 
branches. 
Main leaders of the trees should be 
cut back after their first season’s growth. 
This will produce branching and thus 
make a better framework. 
Space standard Apples 30 feet apart; 
by keeping them cut back, you can put 
them closer on a limited area.
