J . Jti . X"l A Ls Ci — Midseason 



EXTRA LARGE SIZE 



Yellow, freestone, extra large, beautiful red coloring, firm and 

 of the highest quality and enticing flavor. J. H. Hale ' ripens 

 about two or three days prior to Elberta. 



Hales are too large to properly pack in six-gallon carriers, but 

 they make the most attractive and commanding appearance 

 when packed ring-faced, in bushel and half -bushel baskets. The 

 Hale quickly made a national reputation and is a strong competi- 

 tor of the Elberta, being just about as good 'a shipper as Elberta. 



BRINGS HIGHEST MARKET PRICES 



Prices on J. H. Hale and Elberta with a large national crop 

 are about the same, but on a short crop year Hales usually sell 

 from 25c to 50c and sometimes 75c more per bushel on large 

 wholesale markets. 



ORIGINAL STRAIN J. H. HALE 



Our Hales are propagated direct from the original strain, the 

 variety being originated by the late J. H. Hale of South Glas- 

 tonbury, Connecticut and Fort Valley, Georgia, who at one time 

 was the Peach King of America. There are many types and 

 strains of J. H. Hale grown, but the only one worthy of com- 

 mercial importance is the original strain, which is the extra 

 large, round, highly colored peach. The original strain neces- 

 sitates cross-pollenization and it is necessary, for proper results, 

 to plant a few Belle of Georgia or Hiley along with Hale for 

 cross-pollenization. 



The tree is somewhat dwarf, a moderate grower and should be 

 planted on the richest, best, well drained soil available. The 

 Hale needs more cultivation and fertilization than most varieties. 



Hale is the second most extensively planted yellow peach, 

 only being surpassed by Elberta. Hale is a ranking member of 

 the five greatest peaches in America. 



J. H. Hale peaches often 

 weigh one pound. Large size 

 commercial peach always 

 commanding highest market 

 prices

MIDSEASON LATE VARIETIES 



CRAWFORD LATE. Yellow, freestone, superb in 

 size and shape; splendid, yellow, with broad dark 

 red cheek; flesh deep yellow, juicy and melting, 

 rich, winy flavor. One of the best late sorts. 

 Tree vigorous, hardy and sure bearing, coming 

 at a time when the midseason peaches are over, 

 this variety is eagerly bought up for canning 

 and preserving, and brings highest prices. Being 

 such a remarkably good shipper, it reaches the 

 market in first class condition. An old com- 

 mercial favorite. 



Frances. Yellow, freestone, medium to large size; 

 good quality. 



Roberta (Augbert). A comparatively new variety 



of great merit. Resembles the Elberta in many 



respects, but ripens about a week to ten days 



later. An excellent sort to prolong the Elberta 



. season. 



Shippers' Late Red. Yellow, freestone, large, round, 

 bulkier than Elberta, with an attractive red col- 

 oring which is catchy to the eye. Flesh is yellow, 

 juicy, sweet and pleasing flavor. Trees are very 

 hardy, good growers, bear young, sure croppers, 

 and prolific bearers. Promising new late com- 

 mercial variety and excellent home sort. 



Wilma. Yellow, freestone, large, good red color, 

 somewhat similar to its parent, Elberta.
