HIELEY. 



Hieley (Early Bell)— This seedling of Bell of 

 Georgia, one of the best of all peaches of North China 

 type, the kind that are among our most hardy, is much 

 like its parent in size, color and beauty, having the 

 same vigor of tree and hardiness of fruit buds, but 

 ripens its fruit nearly a month earlier, thus giving us 

 a large, rich, cream v white peach, with rich blush on 

 sunny side, at a season when in former years we had 

 only small semi-cling varieties of poor quality. Early 

 Bell is as large as Stump, as beautiful as Old Mixon, of 

 fine quality and a good shipper. July 15th. Price 2~c. 

 each; $2.30 per dozen: $10.00 per 100. June buds half 

 price. 



Stinson's— We hive observed the want of a late 

 peach for the Southern markets, and have been for 

 some years trying to secure a variety that would fill 

 this want, as we have alwavs noticed that about the 

 time our crop of peaches is exhausted everybody in 

 the South is wanting peaches. We have secured the 

 Stinson's October, a variety which originated near 

 Meridian, Mississippi, and think it fills the bib It isa 

 clingstone peach of large size, white with red cheek. 

 Out of a package of that fruit sent us about the middle 

 of September we kept specimens four weeks in good 

 condition. It would ship any distance and is of good 

 flavor. We think it a very desirable variety. Origin- 

 ator's description. Price 2 : c. each: ?2.50 per dozen: 

 $10 00 per 100. June buds at half price. 



Everbearing — A decided novelty. New: produces 

 a successive crop of fruit, ripening all along from July 

 till September. Fruit creamy, with mottled and 

 striped with light purple and pink veins. Oblong in 



shape and tapering toward the apex; flesh, white 

 juicy and of excellent flavor, Freestone. Itisclaimed 

 that it will produce fruit for three months in succession 

 and blossoms at different periods. Price 25c. each; 

 >-.- per dozen; $10.00 per 100. June buds half price. 



Victor — One of the earliest varieties known, of 

 medium size, ripening before Sneed. A seedling of the 

 Chinese Cling, crossed with Spanish blood. Ripens in 

 Southern Texas from May 8th to loth. For an extra 

 early variety plant the Victor. Price 25c each; f.. 

 per dozen; $10.00 per 100. June buds at half price. 



Frances — In this new variety we believe we have 

 one which is equal to the old standard Elberta in every 

 respect and ripens after it This new peach is destined 

 to become as popular as Elberta, which it follows 

 clo-ely after ripening. By the time the latter is done 

 the Frances is ready for shipment. It thus prevent> 

 the occurrence of a break in the succession and reaches 

 market at a time when peaches command highest 

 price, because the beautiful Elberta has created the 

 demand. It is one of the handsomest peaches ever 

 gr.->wn. being of a beautiful shade of yellow, covered 

 almost entirelv with brilliant red. In size it is about 

 the equal of Elberta, average specimens measuring 

 nine inches in circumference. It is very productive: 

 the originator cut a branch nine inches long on which 

 were growing nine full si zed peaches. It is a true free- 

 stone, with particularly solid flesh, and as a "shipper" 

 is absolutely without a rival. Originator's description.
