DECIDUOUS FRUIT AND NUT TREES—Continued 
BABCOCK PEACH — This new peach of Dr. Babcock’s was intro- 
duced by the Southern California U. S. D. A., and is fine for 
Southern conditions. It is an exceedingly attractive red peach 
with white flesh, remaining very hard until thoroughly ripe. 
Fruit of the Babcock will average small to medium, but wé have 
reports of large fruit aang been produced under certain 
conditions. The flavor is mild and non-acid. The trees will 
bear the first year in the orchard or home grounds, but should 
not be permitted to mature fruit at the expense of growth. We 
are told by the men closely associated with the Babcock since 
its introduction that grove trees under observation have never 
missed a crop, which in Peach circles, is remarkable. In 
addition, the trees seem to suffer hardly at all from the common 
fault in warm latitudes, of delayed foliation. Another valuable 
characteristic of Babcock, is its astonishing ability to cling to 
the trees hoeuee severe wind storms, even when quite ripe. 
Commercially, this can mean money to the grower, and to the 
home experimenter is, at least, a great satisfaction. 
CULTURAL NOTE: Because of its prolific habit, this 
variety should be heavily pruned and thinned for best 
results.
