Bud selection from Harrisons' bearing orchards has produced fruits of superior 

 strains, resulting in ideal color and extra heavy producers and sure croppers 



J. H. Hale. Yellow. Very large in size and globu- 

 lar in shape. Skin is thick, smooth and without 

 fuzz. Flesh deep yellow, fine grain, firm, excel- 

 lent quality. Good shipper. Ripens immedi- 

 ately after Elberta. 



New Prolific. Yellow, freestone, large, productive. 



Old Mixon Free. White, freestone, large with bright 

 red cheek, tender, rich, excellent fiavor. 



Ray. White, freestone, large, most attractive red 

 blush of delicate shade, juicy, delicious, tender 

 and excellent flavor. Trees are exceedingly 

 strong growers, shapely and symmetrical, a regu- 

 lar bearer of big crops and generally considered 

 as the heaviest, most consistent cropper known. 

 Plant Ray for nearby markets and roadside 

 stands, as its fine, attractive appearance and high 

 flavor sell it on sight. 



MIDSEASON LATE VARIETIES 



BRACKET! 



Brackett is a comparatively new commer- 

 cial peach in some sections but wherever 

 tried it has given uniformly good results. 

 During the past twenty years we have planted 

 many thousands of this variety in our own 

 orchards and they have given good results. 



Brackett Is a Three-point Winner — In 



Color, In Size, In Quality 



The fruit is rich yellow, with dark carmine 

 cheek. The size runs fully as large or larger 

 than Elberta and fruits weighing five to six 

 ounces are common. Flesh is deep yellow, ex- 

 tremely juicy and is absolutely freestone. The 

 fruit is much better flavored than Elberta. 



Popular on the Markets 



Brackett commands the highest price on 

 the markets and often outsells Elberta 

 twenty-five to fifty cents per bushel. We 

 believe the grower who needs a peach that 

 ripens slightly later than Elberta will make 

 no mistake in planting Brackett. 



Plant Harrisons' Original Strain 



HARRISONS were the first to popularize 

 this great variety and distribute throughout 

 the peach growing sections. We offer trees 

 that are propagated direct from the original 

 strain and they are sure to produce results. 



PRUNING NEWLY PLANTED 

 FRUIT TREES 



The limbs of fruit trees should be cut back 

 approximately two-thirds when planted. Remove 

 all surplus branches from the trees leaving three 

 to five main branches as a basis for the head. Al- 

 ways prune to an outside bud thus insuring out- 

 ward growth. By cutting back severely as men- 

 tioned it will cause the trees to put out a dense 

 growth the first year and will result in a much 

 more satisfactory tree. Trees that do not have 

 any side branches should be cut back to a height 

 of approximately 2 to 2^2 feet from the ground. 

 With trees that do have side branches these 

 branches should be cut back to approximately two 

 buds per stem. 



CRAWFORD LATE. Yellow, 

 freestone, superb in size and 

 shape; splendid yellow, with 

 broad dark red cheek; flesh 

 deep yellow, juicy and melt- 

 ing, rich, winy fiavor. One of 

 the best late sorts. Tree vigor- 

 ous, 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. Be- 

 ing such a remarkably good 

 shipper, it reaches the market 

 in first class condition. An old 

 commercial favorite. 



Frances. Yellow, freestone, me- 

 dium to large size; good qual- 

 ity.
