STUART'S FINE PEACHES 
Peaches may be successfully grown on any soil that will produce aver- 
age yields of farm crops. They prefer the lighter soils such as sandy loams, 
but will do well on heavier soils if well drained. Many fine orchards are 
found growing in soils with a mixture of clay. Peach trees do not like wet 
feet, so soggy and sub-irrigated soils should be avoided. 
The trees transplant readily, grow rapidly and fruit early. A peach 
orchard is so easily set and brings such early returns that every home, 
be it city or farm, should have one. If you have peach soil, plant a com- 
mercial orchard, because peach orchards are returning good profits. 
We recommend setting peach trees 30 feet each way and for convenient 
cultivation. Cultivate as needed and adhere to the spraying schedule sug- 
gested by your county agent. He will be glad to assist you. 
We have earnestly tried to give you true information about the peaches 
listed, what they are, and to which localities they are best suited. The 
peaches recommended as commercial are commercial peaches, and other 
representations are according to our own belief. Varieties are listed accord- 
ing to ripening date, and dates given are for North Central Texas. 
MAYFLOWER. About May 25. Medium size in red cling. One of the most 
dependable bearers. Good quality for such an early peach. Highly colored, 
a good roadstand peach. 
TOPAZ. June 1. Mayflower type; more color and larger. Dark red cling. 
Sure bearer. You will like this improved Mayflower. 
MAMIE ROSS. June 5. An old favorite. Large white fruit with slight red 
blush. Semi-cling. For home use. 
MELBA. June 5. This is a Honey-Hybrid peach of highest quality; large, 
delicious, perfect freestone. It has proven that it is adapted to all peach 
regions. No finer peach for the Gulf Coastal area and the Rio Grande region 
has ever been offered. 
VEDDETTE. Ripe just as Golden Jubilee-is fading. One of the new peaches 
introduced by the United States Department of Agriculture Experiment Sta- 
tions. Early Elberta type. Yellow freestone, good producer of high quality 
fruit. A leader in its class. 
NEW ELBERTA. July 1. One of the new Yellow Freestones: Considered by 
many growers around De Leon, Texas, as the best of its season. Red cheek, 
large, and heavy bearer. High quality, and good shipper. This one has 
proved itself to be one of the best. Good flavor, fine canner. Sells well 
from trucks. 
FAIR BEAUTY. July 1. Large; colored beautifully with yellow and red. 
Splendid shipper and making growers good money in the cross timbers belt 
of Texas. Has tart flavor. Heavy bearer. Semi-cling, though almost free- 
stone when fully ripe. 
HOBSON CLING. July 10. Fast gaining favor because of its fine flavor. Heavy 
bearing and good shipping qualities. Fine for peach pickles and excellent 
eating. Large, white cling. Red cheek. 
STUART'S FINE PEACHES 
J. H. HALE. July 20. This lovely Elberta type peach is-the largest grown. 
Makes show peaches. Shy bearer. Often produces the second crop of fruit, 
but last crop is not up to standard in size or quality in most localities. A 
good peach from Comanche County, Texas, northwest. Freestone. 
ELBERTA CLING. This is a wonder peach. The quality of its fruit and the 
persistent bearing of the tree have made it more popular each year in 
Central Texas. The very best as a shipper and keeper. Truly a great com- 
panion peach for the Standard Elberta of which it is a seedling and with 
which it ripens. Fine red color splashed with yellow. This large peach is 
delicious for fresh eating and is a '‘demand” for pickling and canning. 
INDIAN CLING. Last of July. White cling splotched with red; red streaks 
to seed. Medium to large. Fine flavor, good shipper. Very productive. Your 
Indian cling will bear when others fail. 
FRANK. August 15. A fine yellow cling. Good market peach. Sure bearer. 
Does best in Central and East Texas. Leading money-maker for growers 
in that locality. 
FRANKIE. A freestone Frank. Ripe about August 20. Large yellow peach 
that many prefer to the Frank because it is freestone. Dependable. Does 
well in West Texas. 
SURPRISE. Ripe November 1. This well-named peach is fine for pickles 
and preserves. White cling with tinge of red. Medium size and good flavor 
and quality. You will want some of them for peaches out of season. Just 
think—fine peaches in November!

THE PLUM 
The plum thrives in many soils and over a wide range of climate. It 
deserves a place in every home orchard for fresh fruit, jellies, preserves, 
and jams. Commercial plantings prove profitable. Plant some of the choice 
varieties. Do not forget the Cherry Plums that have won such well deserved 
favor. 
BRUCE. Early, last few days of May. Extra large, red. One of the best pro- 
ducers. Good quality. Fine eating and cooking plum. The fruit will turn 
almost white a few days before ripening and should be handled for market 
at this stage. The Bruce is one of the best money makers in the commercial 
field. By all means plant some Bruce. 
AMERICA. June 25. The leader among commercial plums. Yellow, and a 
real shipper. If left on tree until fully ripe, the America turns almost red. 
We find it to be the heaviest bearer of all. Here is a quality plum that will 
please you. Excellent cooker. 
BURBANK. June 25. Prolific bearer. Delicious; one of the favorites for eating. 
Has red with purple tinge, yellow flesh. Good shipper. A good market 
plum. 
SATSUMA, June 25. Satsuma makes thrifty tree; one of the finest flavored 
plums on the market. Medium size, cherry red. If you want a fine eating 
plum do not fail to plant Satsuma. Very sweet, with enough acid in the 
peel to make fine jelly. 
SAPA CHERRY PLUM. Ripens in late June. The best of the cherry plums. 
Favorite for cooking. Dark purple carries to the seed. Makes the prettiest 
jelly and pies, similar to cherries. Grows very crooked, making a bush 
instead of a tree. Trees out of the nursery rows will not be straight. You 
will have satisfaction growing the Sapa. No trees larger than 3 to 4 feet. 
OKA CHERRY PLUM. Similar to Sapa, but seems to make a better tree. 
Fruit a little larger than Sapa. The Oka is one of the newer Cherry-plums 
and you will want to try this one.
