RIO OSO'GEM 
A Tremendous Money-Maker for Growers 
Commercially speaking, Elberta “just “about ends the Peach dedl*each year, consequently growers for sev- 
eral generations have been anxiously looking for a late ripening, yellow, freestone Peach of large size, high 
red color and good flavor, to extend their shipping season, and <Q@¥e. eventually found it in the newly dis- 
covered marvelous Rio-Oso-Gem. This new variety has been awarded U. S. Plant.Patent No. 84 of the U. S. 
Patent Office. 
Ripens Two Weeks Later Than Elberta 
The Rio-Oso-Gem would be ‘a Peach of commercial 
importance when ripening at any time during the 
Peach season, but it is very fortunate that it ripens 
two weeks later than Elberta, which puts it at a time 
when there is no other variety of commercial im- 
portance as a competitor, and fills a long looked-for 
gap in commercial production, ripening when the 
markets are clamoring for Peaches—this variety has 
sold at very much higher prices than Elberta and 
J. H. Hale. To prolong your Peach shipping season, 
we highly recommend to you planting the Rio-Oso- 
Gem. Harrisons have planted several thousand Rio- 
Oso-Gem in their own famous orchards. We have the 
utmost faith in the Rio-Oso-Gem, and we will also 
make future plantings of this remarkable Peach.
