I PEACH Trees 



PREMIUM PEACHES 



"Just Don't Happen" 



We thought you might like to see some "behind the 

 scenes" reasons our peach trees bring good results year after 

 year. Top Left: All nursery land is fumigated before the crop 

 is planted. Second Left: Peach pits are sown directly in the 

 row where they will be budded the following summer. Third 

 Left: Seedling stands like this are only the beginning of 

 good, long-lived orchards. Our bud wood comes from bearing 

 trees indexed each year to assure their freedom from virus 

 disease. Bottom Right: Well-grown trees deserve good 

 treatment at digging and storage time. Good packing and 

 fast transpwrt to you assure their success.

HARBINGER (0170) A new variety from Harrow, On- 

 tario that ripens 30-35 days before Redhaven. Slightly har- 

 dier than Redhaven with good quality for an extra early 

 peach. Few split seeds. Colors about 80% brilliant red over a 

 yellow ground color. Flesh is firm, yellow, and melting. A 

 clingstone variety of medium size. 



WAVERLY (0146) An exceptional new variety ripening 

 a few days before Dawne that was developed by the late 

 Homer S. Kemp and tested by Ben Schreiman of Waverly, 

 Mo. Waverly is white fleshed covered with handsome red 

 skin which colors highly about 10 days before picking. A 

 beautiful peach to look at. Flavor is superb. A partial cling 

 until fully ripe. Tree is hardy and vigorous; bears young; 

 fruits hang well. An excellent peach for retail and distant 

 markets. 



DAWNE (0103) The earliest yellow freestone peach. 

 Medium sized fruits are covered with an attractive red blush 

 over a golden yellow ground. The flesh is melting and of 

 exceptionally high quality. Trees are vigorous, hardy in 

 wood and bud, bear early and heavily. Thinning is required 

 to produce good crops of well-sized fruit. The blossoms are 

 very showy and resistant to spring frost. Ripens 8 to 10 days 

 before Erly-Red-Fre. 



LEGACY (0184) Fruits are yellow fleshed, almost cov- 

 ered with a bright red over a golden yellow. Flesh is clear, 

 completely freestone when fully ripe, melting and good. 

 Ripens just after Dawne. Tree is vigorous, productive and 

 hardy. Legacy should be good for local markets and distant 

 shipping.
