CHASE'S "ALABAMA GROWN" NURSERY STOCK iiiiiiililillnlll II I II minimi iinilii. Belle of Georgia. Peaches The ease with which peach trees may be grown; their comparative freedom from disease, the short period before they become productive, with the immense demand for the fruit and facility with which it may be shipped into distant markets, makes peach growing- in favorable localities extremely profitable. To secure healthy, vigorous and fruitful trees, the ground must be kept clean and mellow. Proper cultivation, yearly pruning and careful spraying are absolutely necessary to produce fancy peaches. The best soil for the peach is moderately rich, somewhat sandy loam, but will succeed in al- most any soil, except a heavy wet clay. We call particular attention to this reduced list of varieties of peaches, every one of which can be planted with safety in the South. The varieties are listed in the order of their ripening, and the list, though small, is so complete that it covers the ripening season thoroughly. They are the best of their particular class and season. Plant 18 to 25 feet apart each way.
