THE PEACH IS A
SOURCE OF PROFIT
"OkLAHOMA'S PEACH KING
TALKS OF ITS SUCCESSFUL
CULTURE FROM THE START.

In speaking of the growing OF
peaches in this country for the mar
kets and OF this country as a peacA
producing section, Dr.. j. W. Son
said that the half could not be told
DR.. Son is one of the biggest peach
growers in the state and 81 known
as the Peach King of Oklahoma
He has ten acre orchard Of
peaches just outside the limits ol
this city and is going to plant tweL-
tv acres more this fall. Last year
from the ten acres he has il bear
ing. the doctor marketed 1900 crates
Of high grade fruit which sold f. O.
b. Ardmore for from so cents 10 one
dollay per one-third bushel crate.
This does not include the seconds
which were sold in bulk nor a large
amount purchased at the orchard by
local consumers.
Dr.. Son says the cost Of harvest
ing and packing the peach crop is
comparatively light. The crates,
knocked down in car load lots will
cost an average of seven cents each
and the peaches themselves can be
picked and packed for five cents per
bushel
Regarding the setting ont and cul-
tiyation of the orchard he said that
he always set the June bud. He has
the roots cut off at the ends and
nothing but the switch OF the plant
ed tree is left above ground. Older
tres, if any such are set, should
have all branches cut off and noth-
jng but the straight body left. Such
older stock, he says, will come INFO
bearing sooner but they Will also
die sooner. The trees should be
set one hundred TO the acre ami
for the first three years the ground
between the rows should be cultiVat-
ed in potatoes or cotton. The pota-
to is the best crop as it requires
a deep cultivation and the harvest
ing will necessitate digging up the
ground. thereby giving the soil an
additional stirring and loosening
each season. After the third year
the gentleman says he would advise
planting the orchard to cowpeas and
turning the same under. Teh cowpel

There is not a better peach coun.

found within a radius Of ten miles of

are ideal and our usually mild win
