Peaches can be grown on any soil that will produce 
the average yield of farm crops and are especially 
adapted to the lighter soils. Careful cultivation 
and intelligent pruning will work wonders in the 
production of Peaches. If properly cared for, the 
trees are sure to bring in a handsome return on 
your investment. As in other fruits it is impera- 
tive, however, that your trees are of the best stock. 
It is very important that wood growth on Peach 
trees is well ripened and that they have a good and sufficient 
quantity of fibrous roots, so they will withstand the hot sun 
; and drought that may occur after planting. 
Dates after each description indicate approximate ripening season 
7 in Western New York. Season varies in different sections of the 
fj East, but this will give you an approximate idea when to expect 
} the fruit to be ripe.
