DIXIRED (0108) A round, medium-sized clingstone, 
with light pubescence. A beautiful red blush covering three- 
fourths of the surface gives Dixired a pleasing appear- 
ance. Flesh is yellow, firm but melting, and of good 
flavor. Dixired has unusual firmness and a slow rate of 
softening for an early peach. It is an excellent variety 
irom the Carolinas northward into Canada because of 
its fine appearance and shipping ability. 
ERLY-RED-FRE (0109) For unexcelled size and qual- 
ity, it is the best early white peach known. Growers every- 
where still rave about Erly-Red-Fre. No other early 
peach has been as profitable and universally adaptable. 
There is still a place in nearly all plantings for this fine 
Fruits are large, averaging over 2% inches in most 
cases without thinning. Color is never a problem; the 
fruits turn red at least on one side well before harvest 
date. Quality is exceptionally good. Erly-Red-Fre has 
long been known for its shipping and keeping finalities. 
Trees are very vigorous, hardy in wood and bud, and 
produce large annual crops. Erly-Red-Fre resists bac- 
terial spot and bears at a young age. Harvest time is 
about 95 days after bloom, in time to save expensive 
sprays and maintenance costs. Increase your profits by 
adding Erly-Red-Fre to your plantings now. 
SUNHAVEN (0111) True Sunhaven or Early Sun- 
haven matures about 10 days earlier than Redhaven. Fruit 
is large sized, nearly round and uniform in shape. Color is 
much like Redhaven, largely a pretty bright red. Flesh 
is clear yellow, fine textured, firm, of good flavor, and 
resistant to browning. It is a partial cling until full ripe. 
Fruits keep well and handle easily for such an early 
peach. Trees are large, vigorous, and productive. Sun- 
haven is an excellent early fresh market variety for the 
central and northern peach areas. Do not confuse this 
Sunhaven with Late Sunhaven, which ripens with Redhaven 
or later. 
SOMERSET (0114) A fine new yellow-fleshed freestone 
peach that originated here at Bountiful Ridge as a 
chance seedling. Fruits of Somerset are large, round, 
and very attractive. Several days before maturity, the 
fruits become covered with a beautiful red blush that 
is spread over a golden yellow ground color. The skin 
is tough and rather thick which makes Somerset a 
valuable variety for commercial use. 
Fruits ripen at Princess Anne with, or just after, Sun- 
haven but before Redhaven. Size and appearance ex- 
cellent for such an early peach. Fruits average much 
larger than Redhaven or Sunhaven and crops are borne 
just as consistently. The flesh is coarse in texture, but 
melting and of fine flavor. 
Trees of Somerset are vigorous and sturdy growers 
that produce annuaHy heavy crops. Buds are winter 
hardy and frost tolerant. We recommend trial of this 
new variety in all areas where a need for a large, at- 
tractive early yellow freestone peach is present.

JERSEYLAND N.J. 135 (01 15) An early, large, 
firm, attractive, yellow-fleshed freestone ripening a few 
days before Golden Jubilee. It hangs well to the tree and 
is an excellent shipper. Tree is hardy, sets fruit buds 
freely, and comes into bearing at an early age. Jersey- 
land is quite popular from the Carolinas to eastern 
New York. 
SUNSHINE 
SUNSHINE (0113) An EXTRA-HARDY new sport of 
Redhaven that ripens 5 or more days earlier than its 
parent. The flesh is a clear yellow, is melting and with good 
flavor, and resists browning. Sunshine fruits are completely 
freestone at picking time. Size is equal to, or larger than, 
Redhaven on trees of comparable age. 
Trees of Sunshine are vigorous, healthy, somewhat re- 
sistant to disease, upright in growth, and begin bearing at 
an early age. Experience the last several years has shown 
that the buds and wood are above average in hardiness 
and are most tolerant of spring frost. 
Our supply of trees this year is excellent. We hope you 
will be able to order early and get your orchard of Sunshine 
trees started.

Peach Trees 
ON NEMAGUARD ROOTSTOCKS 
New Nemaguard seedlings have proven to be resistant 
to the common nematodes found in most peach areas. Use 
of these rootstocks will enable you to continue growing 
peaches profitably in infested areas. Nemaguard is a new 
seedling rootstock introduced by the U.S.I). A. that is far 
superior to Yunnan and other older and similar nematode- 
resistant rootstocks. We are now using ONLY Nema- 
guard as a nematode-resistant understock for peach.
