HALEHAVEN <i«) 



North — South — East — and West Join in Ac- 

 claiming This Great Peach. Hailed by Many and 

 Conceded to Be "One of The Best Peaches of Its 

 Season." Generally Recognized As One of Our 

 Finest Peaches for "Quick Freezing." 



HILEY BELLE (Hiley) <"> 



A medium sized 

 white fleshed free- 

 stone peach with beautiful red blusli and tough skin. 

 The flesh is juicy and tender. For many years the 

 South's greatest early commercial peach.

VALIANT (iia) 



One of the so-called V varieties introduced by the 

 Vineland Experimental Station, Vineland, Ontario, Can- 

 ada. The Valiant is a seedling of Elberta. It is pos- 

 sibly the largest of the V varieties, globular in shape 

 and very attractively colored with bright red over a 

 rich yellow. It has exceptional quality and holds up 

 well in shipping to not too distant markets. It ripens 

 just after the Vedette and about with the Halehaven. 

 being very similar in shape to the Halehaven, tlie dis- 

 tinguishing factor being the shape of the apex end. 

 The tree and fruit are more subject to fungus diseases 

 than the Vedette and we do not recommend the Valiant 

 for far southern planting where hot, humid atmosphere 

 conditions exist. It is a close rival of the Halehaven 

 in the central and northern districts and is preferred 

 by some growers. It seems to be very hardy and pro- 

 ductive. 



GOLDEN EAST (NJ. 87) di") (f-iVtS^ 



highly colored, yellow fleshed peach ripening with Hiley 

 or about 15 days before Elberta. Usually a freestone. 

 A promising variety for sites south of central New 

 Jersey where favorable elevations, soil and climate pre- 

 vail. The tree is upright, spreading and vigorous. The 

 dormant buds are medium in hardiness. Worthy of 

 trial in all sections.

We know of no Peach of recent introduction that is 

 proving more universally satisfactory than the Hale- 

 haven. It has proved an unchallenged leader of peaches 

 to follow the Golden Jubilee, Colora, Vedette. The tree 

 is a strong thrifty grower, resistant to common peach di- 

 seases, the fruit is large, oval shaped like a well grown 

 J. H. Hale, it has a good tough skin, the flesh of the 

 peach being of such texture that it will not bruise easi- 

 ly and best of all it has a beautiful red color 

 that at once attracts the buyer and a flavor that is 

 as gpo(J^as the very best. The Halehaven is a product 

 of South Haven Experimental Station, in Michigan. 

 Note the success of this variety in test plantings in the 

 South. The south can now grow a large yellow peach 

 in place of the Old Hiley that will bring much higher 

 prices on the markets. Wherever you are located you 

 cannot go wrong by planting liberallv of the Hale- 

 haven. BE SURE YOU ARE GETTING THE TRUE

A self-pollinate seedling of 

 Belle. A dark red, yellow-flesh- 

 ed freestone peach of firm texture and good flavor, rip- 

 ening with Hiley. Size equal to Hiley, tree more vig- 

 orous. Fruit oval, flesh fine grained: excellent shipper; 

 hangs to the tree well. Recommended as a variety to 

 replace Hiley. 



Large, round, quite regu- 

 lar : yellowish-white, mot- 

 tled with red on sunny side; flesh white with red at the 

 pit. One of the best in quality and a general favorite 

 of great hardiness. A freestone. 



A cross between Vaughn and 

 Early Elberta; of Canadian 

 origin. The fruit is large, round, yellow fleshed, free- 

 stone and superior to Elberta in quality. Ripens a few 

 days after Valiant. 



VETERAN <"«■) 



• SOUTH HAVEN <i»a) ^^.'1 



itroduced by the 

 'h Haven Experi- 

 mental Station and proving hardy and an excellent 

 peach. The tree is very thrifty and productive. The 

 peach is of Elberta type, ripening from 12 to If! days 

 before Elberta. While not as good a shipper as Elberta 

 we believe it will carry satisfactory to markets within 

 a radius of 700 miles. It is a freesetone, yellow fleshed 

 peach which colors up well and ripens its crop over a 

 period of about ten days which makes it esi)ecially de- 

 sirable for local and road stand markets.
