"MOTHER NATURE'S GIFT TO THE PEACH WORLD 



Producing orchards from Texas to Canada and from Maryland to the State of Wasliington prove the 

 Universal Adaptability of the Erly-Red-Fre. 



In all our experience as Nurserymen and Horticulturists, never have we seen a new peach with such 

 wide adaptability and prove so universally satisfactory to grower and consumer excepting possibly the fam- 

 ous Elberta. 



The ERLY-RED-FRE originated as a chance seedling in the orchard of AVm. Perry near Chase City, Va. Our attention 

 was first called to this splendid peach in 1935. The second generation trees bore in 1937 at 2 years of age, the fruits on 

 these being identical with those on the Parent tree. The fruit is very highly colored with an attractive bright red on a 

 creamy white background. The skin is tough and medium thick. The flesh of the peach is of such texture that it does 

 not show bruises through the skin for several days after being bruised and is clear white through to the pit. We believe 

 this peach has one of the smallest pits of any cultivated peach we know of in existence. The fruit averages large for an 

 early peach, some specimens weighing 12 ounces and the entire crop under normal conditions and care can be packed out 

 21/4" and up if desired. The tree is very vigorous, resistant to Bacteriosis, bears while very young. 



The ERLY-RED-FRE ripens uniformly, does not show bruises readily and will keep and ship better than ELBERTA. 

 It is definitely the first ripening, freestone peach now in cultivation to our knowledge, following closely the Mayflower and 

 preceding the Golden Jubilee by several weeks. 



Acre For Acre In Production — Pound For Pound in Prices Received Per Acre — 

 Tells The Simple Story of Why You Should Plant ERLY-RED-FRE 



Yes friends whether you are growing peaches in the South. North, East or West by comparison on the above basis 

 you will have to admit after a few years of production you have a winner in the Erly-Red-Fre. You have never had a 

 variety that will grow and produce more universally than the Erly-Red-Fre. You have never seen a tree that will re- 

 cover and produce as abundantly after reverses as the Erly-Red-Fre. Yes, it will produce more pounds or bushels per 

 a.cre of marketable peaches and bring prices among the best, making income per acre among the highest in cash returns 

 to the grower of any variety now being grown. ERLY-RED-FRE is not a new peach — Marketing records over the past ten 

 vears in all parts of the U. S. peach growing areas can verifv our statements on this wonderful peach. IT CAN BE TRU- 

 LY TERMED THE PEACH GROWERS FRIEND. ERLY-RED-FRE has and is proving year after year its worth to the 

 peach growing world. WE ARE PROUD OF THE FACT THAT IT WAS BOUNTIFUL RIDGE NURSERIES WHO IN- 

 TRODUCED ERLY-RED-FRE and WE HOPE TO HAVE TREES OF THIS WONDERFUL PEACH PLANTED BY EV- 

 ERYONE WHO IS GROWING FRUIT EITHER FOR HOME USE OR COMMERCIAL MARKETS.

 SATISFACTION. START YOUR PEACH SEASON WITH ERLY-RED-FRE AND KEEP THE CONSUMING PUBLIC
