HARRISON'S NURSERIES, BERLIN, MD. 



FRANCES— In this new variety 

 we believe we have won which is 

 equal to the old standard Elberta in 

 every respect and ripens after it. 

 This new peach is destined to be- 

 come as popular as Elberta, which 

 it follows closely after ripening. 

 By the time the latter is done the 

 Frances is ready for shipment. It 

 thus prevents the occurrence of a 

 break in the suc- 

 cession and reach- 

 es market at a 

 time when peach- 

 es command the 

 highest price, be- 

 cause the beauti- 

 ful Elberta has 

 created the de- 

 mand. It is one 

 of the handsom- 

 est peaches evex* 

 grown, being of a 

 beautiful shade 

 of yellow,covered 

 [most entirely 

 with brilliant red. 

 In size it ii about 

 the equal of El- 

 l:)erta, average 

 specimens meas- 

 uring nine inches 

 in circumference. 

 It is very produc- 

 tive ; the originator cut a branch 

 nine inches long on which were 

 growing nine full sized peaches. 

 The cut shows the Frances full size. 

 and gives a good idea of its beauti- 

 ful shape. It is a true freestone, 

 with particularly solid tiesh, and a§ 

 a '"shipper" is absolutely without a 

 rival. Price 2o(p each, $3.50 j)er doz- 

 en, $10.00 per 100. June buds at 

 half price.
