“ALWAYS A SOUND INVESTMENT” 
ROEDING’S QUALITY 

O COMPROMISE is per- 
mitted in our fruit tree 
growing practices. We 
pay particular attention to four 
fundamentals. 
... careful bud selection, 
... cautious labelling to insure 
varieties true-to-name, 
...the best modern cultural 
habits, 
... direct supervision of every 
operation by our own men, 
On Our Own growing 
grounds. 
Commercial orchardists and 
vineyardists know the perma- 
nent value of this extra care. 
“Home Orchardists” also, will 
discover that only the best 
young fruit trees and grape 
vines can produce the best 
fruit and a high yield. We in- 
vite your critical examination of ‘““Roeding’s Qual- 
ity”, the trees and vines with a reputation to up- 
hold. 
FREESTONE Peaches 
6-8’ grade $1.50 each, 4-6’ grade $1.25 each, 3-4’ grade $1.00 each 

Alexander. FT60. One of the leading early shipping peaches. 
The fruit is medium size, well colored and attractive. The flesh 
is greenish-white and partially free. 
BABCOCK. FT61. Particularly desirable for Southern California. 
Flesh white, juicy, sweet. Skin handsomely colored. 
BRIGGS RED MAY. FT62. An early peach of good quality, similar 
to Alexander but better in flavor. Fruit is medium size, wonder- 
ful red in color; flesh white, juicy and sweet, partially free. 
CURRY SEEDLING. FT63. A splendid yellow freestone, ripening 
late and filling the gap between J. H. Hale and Salway. The fruit 
is large; flesh is yellow. 
EARLY ELBERTA. FT64. Has all the fine characteristics of its par- 
ent plus the advantage of ripening a month earlier. 
EARLY IMPERIAL. FT65. An early yellow freestone resembling 
Yellow St. John and considered by many to have a better color. 
The fruit is medium size, with an attractive blush overlaying a 
yellow skin. Flesh is yellow, sweet and juicy. 
ELBERTA. FT66. The most widely known and widely grown peach 
in the United States. In California it is used extensively for fresh 
shipment, canning and drying. The fruit is large, yellow in color; 
the flesh of good quality. 
‘ FAY ELBERTA. FT67. A yellow freestone somewhat similar 
to Elberta. It has a smaller pit and ripens a few days later 
than Elberta. A good shipper. 
FIDLER. FT68. A new novelty introduced two years ago by us for the first time. Firm 
yellow flesh and high blush make this a fine late-season freestone. Ripens 10-15 days 
after Salway. 
@ FISHER. FT69. (Plant Patent No. 233.) Few new peach introductions have the outstand- 
ing features of the Fisher. It has two excellent shipping qualities in its roundness and 
firmness; two excellent eating qualities in its smooth texture and fine ‘‘peachy”’ flavor. 
The Fisher ripens a full six weeks ahead of Elberta, a remarkable advantage for a 
yellow-fleshed peach of high quality. Add 20 cents royalty. 
FOSTER. FT70. A yellow freestone similar to Early Crawford but superior to that variety 
in many respects. The fruit is good size and attractive in color; flesh firm, sweet and juicy. 
HALES EARLY. FT71. Fine, large white-fleshed freestone with attractive, blushed skin. 
J. H. HALE. FT72. One of the most widely planted shipping peaches. The fruit is large 
in size, beautiful in appearance. The almost fuzzless skin is overspread with deep 
crimson; the flesh is yellow, red at the pit, unusually firm. Ripens just after Elberta. 

LOVELL. FT73. Known as the ‘'three-way’’ peach. It is used extensively for shipping, 
drying and canning. Most popular for its drying qualities, it has a good reputation for 
sizing up well and having a “‘narrow” drying ratio. One of its outstanding merits is the 
vigor and high productivity of the tree. 
MILLER’S LATE. FT74. California’s latest commercial variety. A good late peach for the 
home orchard in warm sections. 
MUIR. FT75. The peach that many consider the ‘‘made to order’’ variety for commercial 
drying. It is universally recognized as the finest dried peach produced in California. 
The fruit is very large, a clear yellow to the pit and very sweet. 
® NECTAR. FT76. (Plant Patent No. 86.) The finest early white-fleshed freestone we have 
ever seen. It has size, beautiful coloring, a distinctive flavor with a delightful suggestion 
of nectarine tang; firm, juicy flesh finely textured; almost no fuzz on the skin and a 
wonderfully appetizing aroma. Nectar trees are sturdy growers, good producers. Add 
20 cents royalty. 
@® RIO OSO GEM. FT77. (Plant Patent No. 84.) One of the finest recent introductions in 
our family of yellow freestone peaches. Ripening just after J. H. Hale, it exceeds that 
excellent variety in quality of flavor and appearance. Commercial money-maker; home 
orchard favorite. Add 10 cents royalty. 
SALWAY. FT78. A good, reliable, yellow freestone peach ripening in late summer when 
good peaches are scarce. 
STRAWBERRY FREE. FT79. An especially good white-fleshed freestone for the home or- 
chard. The fruit is large and attractive; the flesh very sweet, tender and juicy. 
YELLOW ST. JOHN. FT80. Fruit is medium in size, roundish and well colored. The yellow 
flesh is of fine eating quality and free at the pit. Ripens early.

6-8’ grade $1.50 each. 4-6’ crade $1.25, 3-4’ qrade $1.00 each 
CAROLYN. FT81. New, productive Cling ripening with Gaume. Peach men say it has 
the advantages of Gaume plus a facility to hang well on the tree. 
FORTUNA. FT82. A new early yellow cling valuable for early canning. 
GAUME. FT83. One of our leading '‘late midsummer’’ canning varieties and popular 
in all cling peach districts. It has many of the popular features of the canning cling; 
large in size with a flesh of clear yellow and a small pit. 
GOMES (STUART). FT84. Not a new peach but one that is receiving more attention be- 
cause of its desirable ripening position following Halford. 
HALFORD NO. 2. FT85. Its high yields and excellent quality, combined with a desirable 
ripening date in late summer make it a favorite yellow cling variety of growers and 
canners. 
HEATH. FT86. Without a peer as a home canning peach. The fruit is large, beautifully 
blushed, and fragrant. The creamy white flesh is fine-grained and sweet. 
JOHNSON. FT86A. An early heavy bearing yellow canning cling producing fruit of high 
quality. The flesh is clear yellow to the pit and it is popular with canners.

tricts. The fruit attains large size and possesses a clear, yellow fine-grained flesh.

preference in Sutter County because of its lower susceptibility to mildew. 
SELLER’S ORANGE. FT89. The largest cling peach, used for home canning, but not 
commercially because of its large size. 
SIMS. FT89A. A large, clear yellow cling, producing excellent crops and very popular 
with canners and growers in all peach sections. It is a good variety for Southern Cali- 
fornia as it is resistant to delayed foliation.

lent flavor. A fine peach for home canning. 
®@ SULLIVAN CLING. FT91. (Plant Patent No. 186.) This excellent new cling peach was 
introduced by us a few years ago to answer the problem, ‘’What is to replace the Phil- 
lips?’’ A consistent, heavy producer of top-quality fruit. Add 5 cents royalty. 
WALTON. FT92. An early midsummer cling. The tree is vigorous and productive; par- 
tially resistant to rust and mildew. The fruit is liked by the canners for the early ripening 
season.
