The successful orchardist selects his varieties from those known 

 to be superior and chooses the best strain of each variety 



from the original tree from 

 Mr. A. H. Hetaerle of Ro- 

 chester, New York, the origi- 

 nator. Popular in Western 

 New York and Michigan. 



SLAPPEY. Yellow, freestone, 

 medium to large size, beauti- 

 fully red colored, rich, juicy 

 and extra good flavor. Good 

 commercial variety for nearby 

 markets and one of the best 

 early yellow freestone peaches. 



Belle of Georgia — Best white peach — marvelous 

 heavy cropper — dependable — popular 



Early Midseason Varieties 



CHAMPION. White, freestone, very large, 

 creamy white with red cheek, sweet, juicy; 

 very high flavor. Champion has lost its 

 past commercial importance because it will 

 not carry satisfactorily under refrigera- 

 tion, but as a home garden or a roadside 

 peach, it is one of the best. Tree is hardy, 

 large grower and productive. 



CRAWFORD'S EARLY. Yellow, freestone, 

 large size, juicy, sweet flavored, highly 

 prized for canning. Tree strong grower 

 and prolific bearer. One of the old-time 

 commercial varieties, which has been ex- 

 tensively planted in years past, but now 

 mainly a home market fruit. 



^^ Midseason Varieties 



BELLE OF GEORGIA (Belle). 



White, freestone, large size, 

 avor — and most attractive in color 



and shape, with a light red 

 cheek; flesh white, firm and 

 delicious; extra fine flavor 

 and generally considered as the highest 

 flavored peach grown. Trees grow quickly 

 and shapely; are hardy and bear bumper 

 crops annually; one of the heaviest con- 

 sistent commercial bearers. One of the 

 best long-distance shippers. Its highly at- 

 tractive coloring with large size and won- 

 derful carrying qualities and unusual pleas- 

 ing flavor have won Belle of Georgia the 

 national reputation of being the best white 

 peach. Packs well in the standard six- 

 gallon carriers, also bushels and half 

 bushels. Always brings the highest market 

 prices during its season. Our Belle of 

 Georgia are propagated from the original 

 strain; the buds being selected and sent 

 us by a relative of the late Mr. L. A. Rumph 

 of Marshallville, Georgia, who was the 

 originator of this famous variety. 



EARLY ELBERTA. Ripens about a week 

 to ten days earlier than Elberta; yellow, 

 freestone, large, somewhat similar to 

 Elberta, but a trifle better flavor. Its 

 earliness is its most attractive feature 

 and is being planted more or less in 

 commercial orchards. Excellent home 

 orchard peach. 



Fitzgerald. Yellow, freestone, large, good. 



Mountain Rose. White, freestone, large, 

 round, white with much red in several 

 shades, juicy, rich, tender, sweet. Old- 

 time favorite. 



ROCHESTER, Yellow, freestone, large, 

 covered with mottled red blush; flesh 

 yellow stained v/ith red at pit, very good 

 quality, prolific bearer. One of the best 

 early midseason yellow freestone peaches 

 for nearby markets, and highly desirable 

 for canning. Our buds came direct 



Harrisons' Original Strain of Elberta always bears 

 bumper crops. Best strain known
