CALIFORNIA AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION Service [Ciro 42 Most of these sections are growing the drying and canning varieties, although a few produce shipping varieties. Atwater, Livingston and Denair, and sections in Fresno and Tulare counties grow peaches for eastern shipment. The bulk of the dried peaches of California are produced in the San Joaquin Valley; namely, in Fresno, Tulare, Merced, Stanislaus, San Joaquin and Kings counties, where climatic conditions are particularly favorable for the production of an excellent sun-dried product. In 1927 and 1928 comparatively few additional trees were planted. In addition to the necessity of controlling leaf curl, twig-borer, and powdery mildew, peach blight must be taken into consideration in the spraying program. Certain plantings have been found unprofit- able because of nematodes or alkali in the soil. or because of little-leaf.
