 Benefits 



Fruit is large to extra 

 large; golden yellow with 

 brilliant shades of red; firm, 

 juicy, rich, sweet and good 

 flavor. Elberta has the great- 

 est international reputation 

 of any peach. It has been the 

 standard for all other peaches 

 almost since the date of its 

 introduction. The coloring of 

 Elberta is practically perfect. 

 The rich, yellow skin is al- 

 most entirely covered with 



dark red blush upon the sunny side. This attractive appearance and the uniform large 

 size serve to sell it almost on sight. 



Stamina — Uniformity — Best Canning - — Premium Prices 



Public Demand 



The large fruit, being uniform in size and shape, along with its high, attractive red 

 color and firmness, also its ability to stand shipments of three thousand or more miles 

 under refrigeration in cars for two or three weeks before being consumed, but with 

 stamina enough to still look its best, has won Elberta the reputation of being a peach 

 without a peer and the variety which is always in favor and strong demand with the 

 buying public, therefore demanding the highest possible market prices. Elberta is 

 by far the best canning peach. 



Save Disappointment — Plant Only Original Strain Elberta 



Today, there are more than seven distinct types and strains of Elberta, bearing fruit in the orchards of 

 this country. To compare the various sizes, shapes, texture and red coloring of these Elberta with those 

 grown "on original strain trees" gives sufficient reason why they sold in 1938 at a premium of 50c to 75c 

 per bushel on the New York and other leading fruit markets. 



They Cost No More 



Why plant degenerated strains of Elberta when you can plant Harrisons' 

 heavy yielding original strain trees. They can be purchased at the lowest 

 price that high quality trees can be produced for. It is true trees, size by 

 size, can be produced cheaper by budding them from non-fruiting trees in 

 the nursery row, but this method causes degeneration. Trees grown in this 

 manner will be lighter croppers and require a longer time in coming into 

 bearing. 



Thousands Acclaim the Superiority of 

 Harrison-Grown Trees 



Harrisons' pride themselves in propagating from the original Elberta strain, buds of 

 which were personally cut by the late Senator Orlando Harrison from the original 

 Elberta mother tree in the Rumph orchard in 1889. 



We have two commercial orchards, now 36 years old, of these wonderful original 

 strain Elberta. Besides yielding bumper crops annually, they are the source of our 

 present supply of original strain buds for the new young trees. 



For years our Elberta peaches have been the background of handsome peach profits. 

 ^.You can do the same if you plant Harrisons' original strain Elberta — it's your best bet. 



America's No. 1 Peach — Elberta. There ore more Elberta peach trees 

 in bearing than any other variety on earth.
