PEACHES 
One of our leading fruit crops, California being the nation’s 
leading source of supply for canning and drying peaches. The 
tree does best in a deep, sandy loam soil, dry rather than 
overwet, but must be well drained. 
By careful selection of varieties, it is possible in California to 
have the finest table Peaches almost continuously for six months 
out of the year. 
The tree must be well pruned every year; at least half of all new 
lateral growth should be cut off.

SHANGHAI PEACH (NEW) 
SHANGHAI. (NEW) This magnificent new variety 
from the Orient has created a sensation among the few 
Orchardists that have had the good fortune to secure 
these trees. We have had this Peach under observation 
for several years and it was only after it had lived up to 
the severe tests we gave it, and even surpassed our 
expectations, that we decided to put it on the market. 
Flesh white and juicy, with a rich, sweet, mellow flavor. 
Fruit large, yellow, with dark red blush. The tree is a 
tremendously fast grower producing an enormous crop of 
uniform fruit. As we do not have a large quantity of 
trees to offer this season, orders will be filled in rotation 
as received.
