CHERRIES 
Not difficult to grow, but the trees 
are happiest in well drained, rich soil. 
The Sour varieties grow more readily 
than do the Sweets, but you can have 
both if the location is good. Be sure 
to plant the trees as soon as they 
arrive—don’t let them lie around. 
Press the dirt firmly around the roots; 
tramp it hard. Prune the same as 
apples or pears but do not cut the 
central leader.

CLUSTER AND SUB-ACID 
You may plant one of these varieties, 
and you will be rewarded. This group seldom 
fails to bear a good crop. 
EARLY RICHMOND. This old standard 
Cherry has been the favorite for years. 
The fruit is tart and very valuable for 
canning purposes. Yields nearly every 
year and reddens the tree with Its won- 
derful crop. It succeeds everywhere Cher- 
ries will grow and is the earliest in 
season. 
MAY DUKE. Ripens a little earlier than Early Richmond, and while not quite 
so vigorous in tree, the fruit is slightly superior. Has been tested and found 
worthy of a place in all Cherry plantings. 
then if not in soi 
hardiest of the group. 

MONTMORENCY. Gradually supplanting Early Richmond because of its size. 
Except for being a little !ater it is practically the same. Not quite as acid; 
when ripe is good to eat from hand. The tree is hardy, blooming late, and 
frequently will make a crop when the sweet varieties fail. 
SWEETS OR “HEART” 
This group grows luxuriantly, makes a fine showing for a few years, and 
| that is exactly suitable, may die. These varieties are the 
suitable soil. 
GOVERNOR WOOD. Few Cherries are superior to it in quality or productiveness. 
Fruit medium size, soft, and of fine flavor; pale yellow with blush. 
BLACK TARTARIAN. Perhaps the most popular of the sweet varieties. Fruit 
is large, black, and heart-shaped. High quality. The tree is vigorous in 
NAPOLEON. Large, yellow, firm and high quality. Not planted as it should be. 

PEACHES 
The Peach is the quickest maturing of fruit trees, often bearing the second year after transplanting.

PLANTING AND CARE

When planting, prune very severely, removing all side branches to short stubs and head low. The tree gets top-heavy if allowed to develop a high head. 
Subsequent orchard pruning consists of shortening the terminal growth and keeping the tree compact and shapely. 
The borer which hibernates right below the ground line and frequently girdles the trunk should be removed annually. A new chemical, Paradichlorobenzine 
may be used to control this pest. Our orchard growing and nursery experience is always at your service. Write us your questions and we will try to help you.

good quality. For best results should be 
planted with other varieties for cross-

it fails all else fails, too. Tree a robust

Haven which we are offering for the
