ELBERTA. (13) without <iuestion the greatest 



commercial peach ever introduced. It has proven 

 its ability to adapt itself to varied climatic and soil 

 conditions throughout the U. .S. and Canada, whether 

 the climate is hot or cold, whether the soil is light 

 sand or heavy clay, Elberta can be depended on to 

 give you line results. There is no prettier peach 

 when grown under ideal conditions. 



The tree is hardy, disease resistant verv thrift v 

 and very productive under most conditions. The 

 fruit is large to very large, a freestone, skin a deep 

 golden yellow and highly colored. The skin is 

 tougli and the flesh, while tender and juicy, is of 

 such texture that the ELBERTA IS FAMOUS FOR 

 ITS ABILITY TO CARRY TO DISTANT MARKETS. 

 The quality is classed as good, and the slight bitter 

 flavor is preferred by many. It is estimated that 

 50% of all peaches planted are Elberta. As improv- 

 ed types and varieties are introduced this ratio is 

 lowered but after all is said ELBERTA STILL RE- 

 MAINS THE WORLDS LEADING COMMERCIAL 

 PEACH. We are propogating our Elberta trees 

 from selected orchards of great bearing records and 

 to the old original type of Elberta. Last year we cut 

 budwood from 43 year old Elberta trees which had 

 borne 38 years without a crop failure. We know 

 our Elberta trees will give you results. 



J. H. HALE. (13a) Skin deep crimson, smooth 

 type witliout fuzz, flesh golden-yellow, linn, has 

 delicious flavor. Valuable as a commercial peach. 

 Will ship nearly as well as an apple. Ripens a few

SHIPPER'S LATE RED (14) 



Fast Becoming A Favorite Wherever Planted. 

 Hard To Equal As A Large, Productive, 

 Handsome Peach To Follow Elberta. 



A large, very highly colored attractive red. yel- 

 low fleshed freestone and good qualitv peach," of 

 distinct Hale type. Ripens just after Elberta and 

 ,7. H. Hale. A good shipping peach, extremely i»ro- 

 ductive, very hardy and its beauty and size enables 

 it to bring top prices on the markets. This splen- 

 did variety should be planted more extensively as 

 we know of no variety we can recommend more 

 highly for a peach to follow the Elberta. 



Much confusion exists regarding the various 

 strains of this variety. W'e are growing the true 

 type as determined by comparison with fruit in 

 V. S. D. A. test orchards.

VARIETIES LISTED IN APPROXLMATE ORDER OF RIPENING 



Plant Bountiful Ridge Trees 



GAGE ELBERTA (14A) 



A Disease Resistant Bud Sport Of The Fa- 

 mous Elherti^ Peach, Which We can Recom- 

 mend Highly. 



This sjdendid peach originated in the orchards of 

 Mr. .John Gage near Texico. Illinois. Recommended 

 for resistance to bacterium |)ruiii. The tree grows 

 thrifty as the Elberta and looks much like the old 

 liini' Elberta. Gage Elberta blooms from two to 

 four days after Elberta and apparently has a very 

 strong blossom setting a crop of fruit under un- 

 favorable conditions. The fruit is so near the El- 

 lierta that only an expert can distinguish the diff- 

 erence. It ripens two to three days later than El- 

 berta. 



This variety is proving well adapted to the .South- 

 ern conditions in the trial plantings at Columbia and 

 Clemson. South Carolina and is to be preferred over 

 the Elberta in many respects. 



Very favorable reports are coming to us from 

 Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois on the Gage Elberta and 

 some large orchardists are planting it in preference
