Belle of Georgia — best white peach — marvelous flavor — 

 heavy CTcpper — dependable — popular 



Prospers North and South 

 Few peaches are as well adapted tc different 

 soils and climatic conditions as Belle of Georgia. 

 Although it originated in the South and still pro- 

 duces large crops for many Southern Orehardists, 

 it has been equally successful in the North and 

 West, and we highly recommend it as a profitable 

 variety 



Withstands Coldest Winters 

 The tree is a strong grower with an open top: 

 very vigorous. Bears heavy crops when very 

 young, even at three years. Tree is very hardy 

 in fruit bud and will bear a bumper crop of 

 peaches when other varieties will fail, after going 

 through a severe winter. 



Plant Harrisons' Super-Strain 

 Belle of Georgia Trees 



Harrisons, in their commercial peach orchards 

 over a long period of years, have grown a larger 

 number of carloads and truck loads of Belle of 

 Georgia peaches than any other orchardist in the 

 Nation. Through the process of "bud selection" 

 Harrisons, over a period of many years, have been 

 able to aid Nature, consequently have developed 

 from the original strain which we received from 

 Mr. L. A. Rumph. Marshallville, Georgia, origi- 

 nator of this famous variety, insuring in our fa- 

 mous Harrisons' Super-Strain Belle of Georgia 

 peach trees, which is the finest type, the hardiest 

 and the most productive available. Elicit praise 

 from all who know it because of the great beauty 

 of its fruit at its best — it is one of the glories cf 

 the Peach World. 



Finest Flavored Peach 



Belle of Georgia excels all other varieties in 

 its supreme flavor for fresh eating at the time of 

 picking from the tree. The Belfe of Georgia is 

 the most popular and preferred variety on account 

 of its exquisite flavor. For canning purposes the 

 Belle of Georgia is the best variety known, even 

 chrugh it is a white peach — as the general ccn- 

 sensus of opinion among house":-es is that you 

 can only can a yellow peach. We suggest that 

 you try canning Belle of Georsia and compare 

 it with other varieties — and in the future you 

 will demand Belle of Georsia for vour canning 

 creracicns

 ists in the sections which were visited by the 

 bitter sub-zero winters of more or less duration, 

 found in several cases that Belle of Georgia was 

 the only variety of peach which came through 

 the winter with sufficient number of live fruit
