Combinations of insecticides are available in small packages for a few trees that can be applied through sprayers attached to the end of the garden hose, easily and effectively, making it possible to have insect-frefruit. What kinds of fruits and which varieties to plant is determined in a measure by the climate and soil conditions in your area, as well as by the individual preferences of members of the family. In higher, colder valleys, spring frost and cold winters may limit the plantings largely to apples, plums, and perhaps sour cherries. Lower, warmer valleys, free from excessive alkali in the soil may extend the list to include apricots, peaches, sweet cherries, and pears. Perhaps the easiest of all fruit to grow in the home place is apricots. Not only is the apricot tree easy to grow, but it also makes a nice ornamental suitable for use in landscaping the home grounds. Chinese is the variety preferred by many housewives. e SHADE TREE SPECIAL Weeping Birch 5 7" te I" High OPEN SUNDAYS BELL VU NURSERY 8391 South 7th East Call or wliti LIST AJVl k I960 PRICE .Lowii Seed and Fertiliser .mm Use tlie Daily Want Ads 1HH1 1959 S&KBiHE READY-TO-US- CEMENT E MIXES Buy only as much as you need . . . use only as much as you need . . . store portions indefinitely in the moisture-proof- , un--w- dust-tit- e ' ADVHTISeD Available at Lumber, Hardware Material Dealers & Nursery-Garde- n Salt Lake City, April 2, 1961 varieties for the home lot is a bit more complicated than that of apricots, because the list of good varieties is very extensive, ranging in ripening dates from mid - summer to late October. Where damage from low winter temperature is a factor, Polly and Sungold are two high quality peaches suitable for such locations. In the commercial peach growing areas, Redhaven ripens about a month before Elberta to start the "peaches and cream ' season. Golden Jubilee follows a few days later, and fills in nicely until early Elberta, a choice canning variety, comes along. Elberta, the old standard, is ripe about the time the kids start to school, and is usually followed by J. H. Hale. If you have not had your fill of peaches by the end of the Hale season, you can extend it with Rio Oso Gem which will give you ripe peaches right up to frost in autumn. SOUR CHERRIES are entirely suitable for planting on the home ground because the tree is an ornamental. The best variety for this area, Montmorency', is self fruitful. Sweet cherries are not only more difficult to grow than sour, but the best' varieties, ping, Lambert, Royal Ann require cross pollination by another variety such as Van, Windsor, or Tartarian to set' fruit. A long list of vijus diseases infect sweet cherries in this area, making their suitability for home use questionBecause of their susceptibility to the disease, fire blight, it is difficult to produce pears satisfactorily in the home garden, as well as in the commercial orchard. Even though fire blight can be controlled by intelligent and persistent effort, most gardeners can spend their time more profitably" working for money to buy their requirements for pears. If you insist on growing your own, Bartlett, is the best variety for fresh use and canning as well. Successful home production of apples requires more spraying than some of other fruits, but with the dwarfing root stocks, which produce small trees, the pest control problem is greatly facilitated. A single apple tree can be budded or grafted with any number of varieties, so it is possible to start harvesting in with Yellow Transparent, Lodi, or Astrachan the best sauce and pie varieties, followed by early' McIntosh, Wealthy, McIntosh, Jonathan, , Red Delicious, Delicious, and ending with Rome Beauty. & Building Stores. 70 Reoiue 29 Will 30 Someone 60 fmpohent For 19 From 20 Unexpected 21 People22 A 23 Fine 24 You JULr AUG. 23 TA 74 72 Dere TJTroublesome .74 Epce 75 6ve 76 Met 77 Them 78 Impotence 79 You 80 In 81 And 82 Something 83 Well 84 Controry 85 Neurotic CATMCOBM DEC 23 JAN 20 o 59,-- AOUAHUS IAN 21 fte 19 31 36, v 5&61-7PISCES ffe. 20 MAR 21 37 46 Neutral -. 86 5 86 Wonted 87 TronsoctMH 68 Reworded V- 51 47-4- 9 Q0 ()Adverv: Good 80-87 i( 43 69 Show i0 Your 22 Gve 18 76 uo 58-6- 7 22-3- 24 64e 65 And 24 17 VKO Jy 66 Don't 67 Hard headed 68 A JJ, 53-6- 4 4 WE GOOFED!

Or perhaps, you would enjoy a crisp juicy apple from your own tree as you stir about in the brisk autumn air winding up the fall chores in preparation for winter. These delectable luxuries are possible to the average home gardener with very little effort, plus a bit of planning and planting. The advisability of home lot fruit growing was doubtful in the past, because of the difficulty of pest control by hand spraying. Often the harvest consisted largely of a. few buckets of insect - damaged fruit that managed to cling to the tree after the rest of the pest infested crop was on the ground. Most discriminating gardeners would discard the whole lot, were it not for the fact that they grew it themselves.
