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 follow- 

 ing Slimmer. 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 Left: Well-grown 

 trees deserve good treatment at digging and storage time. 

 Good packing and fast transport to you assures their 

 success.

^rA->lV '• 



RED WIN (0101) An excellent variety for local and 

 roadstand use. The fruits are medium sized, have good 

 color and fine ([uality. Heavy thinning and earlj' spraying 

 are required for best results. Redwin has white flesh that 

 clings to the pit until soft ripe. Trees of Redwin are vigor- 

 ous, hardy in wood and bud. 



SPRINGOLD (0102) A new very early variety — 

 two weeks before Cardinal — which has good color and 

 firmness. Springold should be well adapted to the south- 

 east and other areas needing a very early peach. The flesh 

 is yellow, with good flavor for such an early variety. Fruits 

 are round, and about 80% covered with a bright red blush. 



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 dis- 

 tant shipping. 



SPRINGCREST (0180) Ripens between Springold and 

 Cardinal. Fruits are small to medium si?ed, round, and 

 semi-free when fully ripe. Yellow, fleshed, good flavor. 

 Trees good, need 700 hours chilling.
