Excerpt from Illustrated Descriptive Catalogue of Fruit and Ornamental Trees, Grape Vines and Small Fruits, Shrubs, Plants, Roses, Etc., Cultivated and for Sale at the Geneva Nursery, 1886 Culture OF the pear. - On several accounts the pear possesses ad vantages over other fruits. The first is its delicious quality, as found in the finest varieties its buttery or melting texture, and its delicious and per fumed flavor. In this respect it greatly excels the apple, and keeps nearly as well. Even the peach is scarcely superior, while it keeps only two or three days. But the pear, like everything highly desirable and valuable, cannot be had without attention, labor and skill. There are only a few exceptions to this general rule. The relative prices Of the apple and pear being about one TO ten, show at the same time the superior value Of the latter, and the greater skill required to bring it to perfection. The market value of fine pears is a good indication or measure Of the amount of attention which this fruit deserves.

Book Description
Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of Fruit and Ornamental Trees, Grape Vines, Small Fruits, Shrubs, Plants, Etc., 1925 After an experience of fifty years in the nursery business, all of which time has been spent in business at this place, we take pleasure in presenting this new edition of our catalog to our friends and patrons, hoping that they will accept our thanks for the generous patronage and confidence they have bestowed upon us in the past. It will be our aim in the future, by strict attention to business and honest dealing in all transactions, to merit a continuance of the same. We will direct our efforts and spare no pains or money to pro duce the very vest stock that can be grown, and recommend such fruits as have proven to be of value. New fruits that have not been fully tested, we will recommend planting only in small lots, which will be the means of disseminating them, and may be the cause of having many new fruits that will prove to do as well and be as popular all over the country as the old and well known varieties. Since establishing our nurseries, improvement has been made in growing first class stock, and people generally educated to know what are good trees. When W. T. Hood started in the nursery business fifty years ago, he got his early training under Franklin Davis, and as soon as he got the trees grown to the planting age, planted out orchards in the nursery grounds. Apples, to see the merits of the fruit. Peaches to see the merits. Also to see that they were true to name and to cut buds from every two years, so as to keep stock true to name in the nursery, and we have always wanted to have commercial orchard, but did not have the room to spare at our nurseries at Richmond, but winter of 1908, with I. Howard Williams, bought what we thought was an ideal farm on the C. O. R. R., between Greenwood and Afton, Virginia, and we have at present one hundred and thirty acres planted with apples and peaches. The past season, we shipped over carriers of peach and have barrels of apples. Our peaches have been bearing every year, commencing the third year from planting. And most all trees have been bearing too heavy crops of all the varieties we grow. Which was nearly one hundred varieties. These all proved true to name except two varieties. We also had one variety that we got a party to cut buds for us from some orchard in the Blue Ridge, and they were mixed with another late variety. We are very proud of our record, as we have always been afraid that there was danger of getting peach mixed in cutting buds on carelessness of a budder in leaving stick in box and putting in other buds with it.

C To the ladies we would say Here is an inviting field of labor for you, and we are. Glad to know many are already awakening to this fact. Foreigners tell us our women are too little in open air. The-study and practice of horticulture might become a source not only of profit but of health and constant enjoyment in the hands of any lady of refinement and culture. We would not tempt the uninitiated with the promise of large fortunes in a few years, and with no labor or trouble; nor do we believe that for the development of all that is noble and good in humanity this is best. But we do say that the business of fruit growing, conducted with energy, perseverence and intelligence, will bring an ample and sure reward.
