One Delicious Apple 



Is large, the surface almost covered 

 with a most beautiful, brilliant dark red, 

 blending to golden yellow at the blossom 

 end. In quality it is unsurpassed, in- 

 comparable — words cannot describe it. 

 In flavor it is sweet, slightly touched 

 with acid, but only enough so to make it 

 all the more pleasing, with an aroma delightfully 

 fragrant. The flesh is fine-grained, crisp, juicy, 

 melting and withal delicious. People with deli- 

 cate digestion to whom an acid apple is wholly 

 indigestible, can enjoy Delicious apples without 

 disagreeable after-results. 



^„, 



One Early 

 Elberta Peach 



Is the yellow peach of the cen- 

 tury. The huge golden globes 

 of fruit that it bears in such 

 astonishing abundance are now 

 famous wherever peaches are 

 prown. The Early Elberta is a 

 beautiful golden yellow, blend- 

 ing into a glorious red on the 

 sunny side; a strong, protecting 

 skin, covering a luscious flesh 

 that is flavored with a juice as 

 sweel as nectar. It allures with 

 its beauly, gratifies with its 

 quality. 



One Moore 

 Early Grape 



Similar to Concord in appearance 

 and quality; vine healthy and hardy, 

 succeeding wherever Concord grows. 

 One of the most profitable varieties, 

 and is planted largely in all sections 

 East, West, North and South.
