Factors Influencing the Early 
Bearing of Fruit Trees 
1. Plant well-grown trees from a reputable 
nurseryman. 
2. Avoid planting in poorly-drained soils. No 
fruit trees will tolerate “Wet Feet.’’ Usually 
upland clay, sand or gravely loams are prefer- 
apis to the so-called black and lowland types of 
soil. 
3. Set out varieties adapted to me section of 
the country. In most cases we have indicated 
the limitation of certain varieties which are not 
widely adapted. 
4. Use an abundance of peat moss mixed with 
the soil when planting in well-drained soils. 
5. Select varieties which normally come into 
bearing at an early age such as Wealthy Apples, 
Hale Haven Peaches, Stanley Plums, and Oka 
Cherries, etc. eas 
6. Most fruit trees require several varieties 
planted together for proper pollenization. This 
will insure heavier fruiting.

Fresh Home-Grown Fruits 
Best for Freezing 
Highest quality in quick-frozen fruits is 
obtained only when they can be grown under 
the best conditions, fully ripened on the vine 
to the very peak of color and quality. When 
this stage is reached, pick, prepare, and 
freeze promptly. 
The Home Fruit Garden provides the ideal 
condition for the fruit to be so handled from 
the vine (or tree) to the deep freeze in the 
minimum of time. 
7. At this stage it may be well to slow up the tree growth for a few years in order to throw it into 
fruit production. This restricted growth is the reason dwarf fruit trees come into bearing before 
the standard kinds. 
8. Keep your trees healthy with timely sprays.
