Original Strain 

 J. H. HALE 



MIDSEASON — Ripens 2 f o 3 days before Elberta 



Our "Hales" are propagated direct 

 from the original strain, the variety orig- 

 inated by the late J. H. Hale of South 

 Glastonbury, Connecticut, and Fort Val- 

 ley, Georgia, known as the Peach King of 

 America. There are many types and strains of J. H. Hale grown, but the only 

 one worthy of commercial importance is the original strain, which is the extra 

 large, round, highly colored Peach. The original strain necessitates cross-pol- 

 lenization and it is necessary, for proper results, to plant a few Belle of Georgia 

 or Hiley along with Hale for cross-pollenization.

The Best White 



Midseason Variety 



Ripens midseason. Color creamy white with red cheek. 

 Flesh white, red near pit. Size large, freestone. Belle 

 of Georgia, for some time, has been recognized as the 

 best all-arour,d white Peach on the market. It is easily 

 the best shipping white Peach of its season, ranking 

 almost with Elberta in this respect. Because of its many 

 desirable qualities, it has become standard in the large 

 commercial orchards, and you can find few orchai-dists 

 of any importance who do not have a block of Belle in 

 their orchards. These men know from experience just 

 what varieties pay best and endorse it highly. 



VALIANT. Early midseason. Seedling 

 of Elberta. Yellow freestone, pro- 

 ductive. 



EARLY ELBERTA. Early midseason. Yellow, freestone, large, lemon-yellow with 

 G dark cast, blush with vivid red. Beautiful appearance, high quality, being 

 somewhat similar to Elberta, although a trifle better flavor, rich golden tender 

 flesh, yet firm and has a delightful flovor; excellent for canning.
