WAYNESBORO PEACHES 
Peach Industry Being Revolutionized 
The Peach, an old favorite in the fruit family, is now making new 
friends. Market expansion has been made possible by new. methods of 
freezing, canning, evaporating and storage. A moderate planting of prop- 
erly located orchards has promise at this time of being a profitable 
investment. 
PEACHES IN READY DEMAND—The fruit is most generally in de- 
mand at good prices, since the crops in various communities ripen at 
different times and markets are seldom congested. 
CONSUMER INCREASE— Population in the South has advanced with 
industrial development. Improved highway and hauling facilities are 
enabling markets, large and small, to provide this consumer increase 
with fresh fruit daily from the orchard. For this demand, it is advisable 
to plant a larger assortment of varieties ripening over a longer period. 
WHY PLANT WAYNESBORO TREES—Located in the Commercial 
Peach Orchard Section of Virginia, we are able to make variety research 
in bearing orchards and to cut our budwood from bearing trees. .We 
can thus examine new varieties, adding those which are promising and 
discarding those which are less desirable. In this way we attempt to 
serve the commercial grower as a source of information as well as to 
furnish dependable trees, grown in our sandy loam soil, noted for pro- 
ducing an excellent root system. 
SUPPLY LIMITED—tThe Spring freeze and scarcity of efficient labor 
have contributed to a serious shortage in Peach trees in the nursery 
row, possibly not more than half the number which would be planted 
this season, if available. You are urged to place your order early so 
that trees may be reserved.
