r 



CRAWFORD'S LATE. A late, large yellow ■ 

 peach with deep red cheek. Flesh very yellow .. * 

 and juicy. Very good flavor, freestone, and ** 

 red at pit. 



ROBERTA. A rather new variety that is be- 

 coming popular when once fruited. About ten 

 days later than Elberta, which it resembles in 

 some respects. Fruit attractive, of good quality, 

 and freestone. 



HEATH CLING, a very late peach and of extia 

 large size with creamy white flesh, round with led 

 blush, very firm, and juicy. It is a favorite for 

 canning and pickling. Just the variety for that 

 Home Orchard. 



SHIPPERS LATE RED. Late yellow peach with 

 attractive red blush. Extra hardy, good cropper; trees 

 fruiting very young. A very high quality peach of the 

 Hale type, also freestone. We recommend it to follow 

 Elberta. Good for home and commercial markets.

 Elberta type. Color very good, also quality. Ripens week 



to ten days 

 later than 

 ^ Roberta.

Extra Heavy 5-6 Ft. Peach 



BRACKET! 



EXTRA LARGE, LATE YELLOW PEACH 



This excellent variety has proven itself as a leading com- 

 mercial peach to follow Elberta. In size it averages as 

 large or larger than Elberta. Flesh a deep yellow, of 

 excellent quality and flavor. Trees fruit at an early age 

 and very productive. A perfect Freestone peach. If you 

 are looking for a peach to ripen five to eight days after 

 Elberta you will make no mistake in planting Brackett. 



BRACKETT BRINGS TOP PRICES 



In checking our market reports on peaches, we find 

 Brackett at the top, bringing fancy prices and often top- 

 ping the famous Elberta 25c a bushel. Townsend's 

 Brackett trees are propagated from one of the largest 

 and heaviest yielding Brackett orchards in the East — a 

 strain far above the average. They cost no more than 

 just ordinary trees. 



•TOWNSENDS' FRUIT TREES ARE FIBROUS ROOTED

 more fibrous roots than the stock grown at Townsends'. 

 These facts are acknowledged by some of the largest 

 commercial orchardist, who have visited our nurseries at : 

 digging time. Such trees start new growth quickly, fruit 

 earlier. Such trees are sure fire money makers.
