 cellent variety for canners.

I'ELLOW^ RARERIPE— Large, deep yellow, melting and good, with a rich flavor. Last 

 of August. ■*' 



WARD'S LATE— A fine variety, ripening last of August; vigorous and productive; fruit 

 rather large; skin white, with a fine crimson cheek; flesh white, juicy, melting and excellent; 

 valuable for canning and for market purposes. 



DENTON— The fruit resembles that of Elberta, but is a full week to ten days later in 

 season. So far it has proven remarkably certain as a bearer, bearing when all other kinds fail. 

 Is equally as large as Elberta, and even more reliably productive. 



CHRISTIANA— A new, very large, fine looking yellow peach, ripening between Crawford 

 Late and Smock. Its large size, handsome appearance and time of ripening combine to make it 

 a very valuable peach. 



EMMA — Described by the originator as being very large, yellow with light crimson cheek 

 flesh yellow, fine grained, very juicy; quality among the best, a freestone. In maturity it fol- 

 lows immediately after Elberta, Where this peach has been shipped to the market it has 

 always commanded an extra price over the other varieties. It is better in quality than Elberta. 

 As this valuable variety comes from the home of the Elberta, fruit growers should not hes- 

 itate to make a thorough trial of this at once. We believe that is is a variety that will do well 

 with us. 



FRANCES— See description, page 12. 



MATTHEWS— We received a sample of this fruit two years ago and to say the least it 

 Tvas one of the finest peaches of its season we have ever seen grow. It is a cross between El- 

 Ijerta and Smock, showing a parentage of both. The fruit is of large size, above medium; shaped 

 similar to Elberta but a little longer. 



In the section where it was originated, a noted fruit man says it is the most valuable suc- 

 cession to Elberta so far introduced. In comparison it is a size larger and far superior in 

 <iuality, while its bearing and shipping qualities are just as good. Its season of ripening is 

 three weeks later than Elberta, which still adds to its value. Skin golden yellow, streaked with 

 ired; flesh yellow, firm and of excellent flavor. Perfect freestone. The original tree of Mat- 

 thew's Beauty has been in bearing for eight years and missed but one crop in that time, keep- 

 ing up its high standard one year with another. 



NEWLINGTON CLING— Large to very large. Red, juicy and rich. Last of August. 



GOLD MINE— See description, page 12. 



PERRY'S KED CLING— Fruit large to the largest, flesh white, skin red next to the sun, 

 high flavor. For canning purposes it is simply superb. Tree vigorous and heavy grower. Last 

 of August.
