BRING LARGE RETURNS 17 We hig-hly recommend this variety for shipping, canning and drying pur- poses for any section throughout the State where apricots may be grown. Ripens early Tilton The Tilton was originated near Lemoro. Kings County, California, 1 llton and occupies an important position as one of the leading apricots grown in this state. It is considered one of the most profitable varieties for general planting in all the apricot sections, and it is extensively planted in the San Joaquin valley and in the favored apricot sections of Southern California. One of the advantages of this variety is its late blooming period which makes it a regular bearer while others are sometimes injured by late frosts. The tree is a strong, rampant grower and requires regular and systematic pruning. The fruit in general appearance strongly resembles the Koutier Peach. It is of large size somewhat flat in shape and orange color. The flesh is a light orange yellow, firm, and has a delightful apricot flavor, and ripens very uniformly on the tree. On account of its large size it makes a handsome dried product as well as a valuable canning and market variety. Ripens about the middle of June. CHERRIES In commercial impoitance the cherry in California has not commanded the • attention of the grower that it should receive. It is true that the cherry dis- tricts are limited, yet orchardists in these particular districts have been able to market their fruit with record-breaking returns from the Eastern markets. With our marketing facilities it should be an incentive to planters in the cherry districts to plant more trees of this profit-bearing fruit. The cherry attains its highest perfection in the Vaca Valle
