Edranol. The slender, upright tree 
takes little room and produces 
heavily. The fruit is dark green, 
has a small pit and the buttery, 
fiberless, yellow flesh does not dis- 
color readily after being cut. Ripens 
May to August. Has produced well 
wherever planted but likes it best 
within twenty miles or so of the 
coast and in the foothill areas. 
Stands 26°. 
Cole Fuerte. Here is a strain of 
California's most popular Avocado, 
the thin-skinned, high quality green 
Fuerte, which seems to bear every 
year. This heavy bearing strain 
produces fruit with the same 
creamy-yellow, fine flavored flesh 
that has made the Fuerte so many 
friends. Bears from December io 
May. Stands 24°, and is best in 
coastal and foothill regions, but 
will grow well in all but the cold- 
est Avocado areas. 
Ryan. Ryan is consistently prob- 
ably the heaviest bearing summer 
Avocado. The quality of the fruit is

Jalna. A new heavy bearing Mexi- 
can variety with green pear-shaped 
fruits of splendid quality. The trees 
bear very heavy crops, are spread- 
ing and symmetrical, and especially 
vigorous. Ripens in December and 
bears very young. Here 1s an Avo- 
cado that grows and, bears well in 
all. districts, including some colder 
areas. Stands 22°. 
Duke. We recommend this splendid 
kind to you as being the finest 
Avocado for home planting in the 
colder interior districts. It pro- 
duces an oval green fruit which 
looks like a small Fuerte. Duke 
will grow almost anywhere in the 
valleys of California, from the 
Northern end of the Sacramento 
Valley to the Mexican border. The 
tree is large, vigorous and beauti- 
fully foliaged. Stands 20°. Fruits 
in September and October. 
Hazzard. Our Research Department 
is very enthusiastic about this 
brand-new introduction which they 
feel has the finest flavor of all Avo- 
cados. The dark green pyriform 
fruits have small seeds and the 
smooth creamy flesh is stringless. 
They are a perfect commercial size 
and ripen in the early summer when 
you will most appreciate them. 28°. 
Mexicola and Benedict. These two 
rugged varieties will perform under 
the most adverse conditions and 
invariably produce an abundance

locations where the climate is too 
severe for other varieties. 18-19°.

the Satsuma and the King Tanger- 
ines which has rich orange flesh, 
exceptionally sweet and _ tender.

flavor that it can be diluted 50% 
with water and still be better than 
most citrus juices undiluted. Each 
year's heavy crop is picked as 
needed from February to April.

Persimmon 
Jumbu Persimmon. This huge puck- 
erless variety appeals to all per- 
simmon lovers. It can be eaten 
while crisp, like an apple, or al- 
lowed to become soft and then 
spooned. At Thanksgiving time, the 
foliage turns all of the brilliant 
russet hues of a real Down East 
autumn, and those big bright fruits 
(like that in the picture above) are 
hanging ready to make the tastiest 
pudding you can imagine. 4-6 ft. 
trees, $1.50 each. 
Seed-Free Healthful Citrus Juice All Year 
Fresh fruits from your own trees, filled with rich juice containing a full 
quota of health-giving vitamins and never a seed, can be yours through 
all four seagéns simply by planting the new improved, seedless Armstrong 
Seedless Valencia. Certain stand- 
ard Valencia Orange strains pro- 
duced by “‘bud selection’’ are an 
improvement over the older ones 
but the Armstrong Seedless Valen- 
cia stands unchallenged as the fin- 
est summer orange. Besides being 
a heavy producer of fine textured 
fruit with a thin rind and almost no 
pithy ‘'rag,’’ it is seedless. Imagine 
quantities of fresh vitamin-full sum- 
mer orange juice and no seeds. 
Plant Pat. No. 124. 
Armstrong Seedless Lemon is a De 
Luxe model not because of added 
features but because of an objec- 
tionable one removed. An _ ever- 
bearing Lemon identical to the fa- 
mous high quality Eureka except 
that it is seedless. Enjoy lemonade 
minus floating seeds. Plant Pat. 
No. 342. 
Robertson Navel. Plant a Robertson 
and you will get the maximum in 
quality and in number of oranges 
(no ‘June drop’’ because they size 
up so early). Robertson Navels bear 
more per tree and each tree takes 
up less room. Starts to bear the 
first season after planting and the 
fruit ripens well before Christmas, 
avoiding exposure to heavy winter 
frosts (hang on until June if you 
wish). You plant the best winter 
orange when you plant a tree 
labeled ‘‘Robertson Navel'’. Plant 
Pat. No. 126.
