ADMIKAT. UEWEY- 

 Introduced by J.D.Huested, 

 the Avell-known originator, 

 amongst other varieties of 

 Huested's Early,EarlyMich- 

 igan and Triumph peaches. 

 He has devoted many years 

 to scientific crossing and 

 breeding for improved vari- 

 eties. Every new kind in- 

 troduced by him has stood 

 the test of practical trial, 

 and maintained all the 

 merits claimed for them. 

 His latest introduction, 

 "Admiral Dewey," marks as

great an advance in early 

 peaches as did the Triumph, 

 and while that variety is 

 proving even better than 

 ever claimed for it. Admiral 

 Dewey possesses many im- 

 portant points of superior- 

 ity. It is a perfect freestone; ripens with the Triumph; flesh is yellow, of uniform color and 

 texture to pit. Has better form and brighter color on the surface; is equally hardy and pro- 

 ductive. The tree is a strong symmetrical grower, and as near perfection as we can obtain in 

 a single variety. Price— One-year No. 1, 2^<f each; $2.50 dozen; $10.00 per 100. June buds hai£ 

 price. 



The most magnificent mid-summer peach is Elberta.
