FRUIT TREES 
We all realize the importance now of a few fruit trees about the place—their healthful properties, the 
added enjoyment of fruits properly ripened on the trees. Also some of our tastiest varieties are practically 
unobtainable in the markets. 
The shade and ornamental value of evergreen trees such as Avocado and Citrus should not be overlooked. 
I{ limited for planting space, we can always find room for some of the bush fruits such as Guava, 
Berries and Grapes or possibly a Strawberry bed. 
Artichoke, Rhubarb or Asparagus also may be grown in limited areas. 
CITRUS FRUITS 
Citrus fruit trees may be planted here through the entire year. 
Wrap each tree as soon as planted with a 2-inch-wide strip of burlap (or other coarse material) cov- 
ering the trunk from the soil level to the first branches. 
Plant the tree only to the depth of the soil in the ball or container in which you receive it. 
Trees should be spaced from 16 to 20 feet apart except that dwarf citrus should be planted 6 to 8 
feet apart. 
Prices: All varieties, $4.00 unless otherwise noted. 
GRAPEFRUIT 
Marsh Seedless Grapefruit. A particular advantage in 
planting this superb variety is that, locally, the fruit ripens 
after the Arizona and Coachella fruit of the same variety is 
off the market. So, if you want grapefruit for use during the 
warm summer months you most certainly should plant at 
least one or two Marsh Seedless. The enormous creamy- 
yellow fruit is generally thin skinned, cram full of delicious 
juice and is practically seedless. Large deep green leaves and 
many branches form a dense tree of symmetrical proportions. 
June to August. 
Pink Thompson Grapefruit. Identical to the preceding va- 
riety except for its pink flesh. Lends a pleasing color and 
flavor to any fruit drink. Each, $4.75. 
LEMONS 
Eureka Lemon. A single tree will keep the average family 
well supplied throughout the year. The large, bright-yellow, 
highly acid fruit is practically seedless. And what is more 
satisfying on a warm summer day than a clear cold glass of 
lemonade? Mother used to put a little lemon juice and rind 
in prune pie. Got to thinking about that pie before we went 
to sleep last night—sure was good! 
Ponderosa Lemon. While the fruit is usable its chief value 
is ornamental. Forms a heavy foliaged dwarf tree that is 
weighted down with enormous fruit to 5 inches in diameter. 
Starts to bear soon after planting. Mail a few fruit to some of 
your eastern friends and show them what we can really do 
out here. Each, $4.75. 
LIMES 
Bearss Lime. Bears heavy summer crops of large, seed- 
less, acid fruit of the true lime flavor. The tree attains large 
size, is almost thornless and hardier than the Mexican variety. 
Mexican Lime, Matures heavy crops of small greenish- 
yellow limes throughout the year. Small thorny tree. Not 
frost hardy. 
Rangpur Lime. Standard type. For description and for 
prices of bush type see page 4. 

EUREKA LEMON 
ORANGES 
Valencia. From the standpoint of practicability this orange 
is head and shoulders above any other. The juice filled fruit 
will keep much longer either on or off the trees, will produce 
consistently heavier crops of quality oranges and may be 
harvested through more months of the year. Tree erows to 
large size. May to November. See illustration page 9. 
Washington Navel. Big, reddish-orange, easy to peel fruit 
with a sweetly satisfying flavor and aroma. If you are one of 
the few who haven't eaten them fresh from the tree, you have 
no idea how exquisitely delightful a juiceful Navel orange 
can be. December to April.
