With More Than One Half Million Trees Planted And In Bearing In Every Fruit 

 Section of The United States and Canada, Erly-Red-Fre Presents an 



Amazing Record 



GROWERS AND HORTICULTURISTS everywhere 

 say — "ERLY-RED-FRE IS ONE OF THE GREATEST 

 FINDS IN PEACHES OF ITS SEASON." 



1953 Proved Erly-Red-Fre A General 

 Favorite In All Markets 



From the beginning- when peaches arrived out of Georgia and 

 later from North and South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, New 

 Jersey and many other states. ERLY-RED-FRE commanded top 

 prices and found ready sales. Prices started early at $9 to $12 

 per bushel and leveled off at $4 to $G where they remained until 

 Elbertas came into the market. Prices for 1953 season continued 

 at the same levels day after day when other varieties were up and 

 down. This meant consistant profit returns to the grower, who 

 was able to figure his profit for the entire ERTA'-RP^D-FRE sea- 

 son. 



In the north where ERLY-RED-FRE has been heavily planted 

 in face of the fact, it was competing- with southern yellow, free- 

 stone peaches. ERLY'-RED-FRE has proved a money-maker due 

 to the size, heavy production, beauty and quality of the fruit and 

 its early ripening- date. 



Interviews with peach growers from many sections reveal that 

 during the past several years ERLY'-RED-FRE has kept them on 

 the profit side and in the peach business.

 Cientlemen : 



I saw recently in several Super-Markets your Erly-Red-Fre 

 peaches (from Clanton). No use in trying to describe them. The 

 prices at the several stores were 21c per pound. If I decide to 

 build up a new small orchard this Fall. I have already selected 

 4 or 5 varieties from your catalog. With best wishes. 

 Very truly,
