ELBERTA 



THE WORLD'S GREATEST AND BEST 

 MONEY-MAKING PEACH 



Mid-season, yellow, freestone. Fruit is large to extra large; 

 golden yellow, with brilliant shades of red; firm, juicy, rich, 

 sweet and good flavor. Elberta has the greatest interna- 

 tional reputation of any peach. It has been the standard 

 for all other peaches almost since the date of its introduc- 

 tion. The coloring of Elberta is practically perfect. The 

 rich, yellow skin is almost entirely covered with dark red 

 blush upon the sunny side. This attractive appearance and 

 the uniform large size serve to sell it almost on sight. 



Harrisons' Original Strain of Elberta Always Bears Bumper Crops 



The Best Commercial Variety 



Tree is vigorous, very hardy, sturdy, thrives in widely dif- 

 ferent localities. Elberta is hardier in bud than most varie- 

 ties, and is a uniform prolific bearer. You can always de- 

 pend on Elberta for a sure cropper. 



Elberta Is the Best Long-Distance Shipper 



The large fruit, being uniform in size and shape, along with 

 its high attractive red color and firmness, also its ability to 

 stand shipments of three thousand or more miles under 

 refrigeration in cars for two to three weeks before being 

 consumed, but with stamina enough to still look its best, 

 has won Elberta the reputation of being a peach without a 

 peer and the variety which is always in favor and strong 

 demand with the buying public, therefore demanding the 

 highest possible market prices. Elberta is by far the best 

 canning peach.
