FRUIT AND ORNAMENTAL NURSERY STOCK 



PEACHES, continued 

 /^ A "n "lyr a lyr Ripens third week in July. 

 v/XXJ^lTLx^XM • This is a favorite variety 

 with many growers, as it 



is one of the most profitable ever introduced. 



The returns from a successful Carman 



orchard are almost beyond belief, and the 



fruit stands shipping so well that it 



always reaches market in prime condi- 

 tion, and its handsome appearance 



causes it to bring the highest prices. 



The fruit is remarkably attractive and 



luscious; large and broad, oval-shaped, 



yellowish white; flesh creamy white, 



red with tinge, spicy and good. Can 



be grown on land that is too low and 



wet for many sorts. Tree is a vig- 

 orous grower, hardy under some of 



the most unfavorable conditions 



and bears freely every year. Free. 



CHAIR'S CHOICE. 



Ripens September 1. Extra large; 

 deep yellow, with red cheek; flesh 

 firm, sweetest and richest grapey 

 flavor; a satisfactory and all-round 

 Peach for general planting. Trees 

 make strong, sturdy growth, and 

 bear big crops. Free. 



CHAMPION. Ripens Au- 



■ gust 1 . Fruit 

 large, creamy white, with red cheek; 

 sweet, juicy, very high quality. 

 Good shipper; its fault, if it has 

 one, is that it is too tender. Free. 

 One of the showiest Peaches in our 

 sample orchard and one that sells 

 for a good price. The tree is hardy 

 and productive, and it is a valuable Peach for either 

 the home or the commercial orchard. 



Crawford's Late Peach (natural size) 



Carman Peaches. Aren't they fine specimens? 



CRAWFORD'S EARLY. Ripens July 28-Aug. 10. 

 Tree vigorous and very productive. Good size; 

 yellow; juicy, sweet-flavored. Free, One of the 

 standards for early ripening in commercial orchards, 

 as the tree is hardy and vigorous, and bears freely. 



CRAWFO RD'S LATE, pens Sep- 



■ tember 1. One 



of the best late sorts. Superb in size and shape; 

 si)lendid yellow, with broad, dark red cheek; flesh 

 deep yellow, juicy and melting, rich, winy 

 flavor. Free. Coming in at a time when the 

 early Peaches are over, this variety is eagerly 

 sought up for canning and preserving, and 

 brings the highest prices. By many it is 

 considered the best of all late yellow Peaches, 

 and, being such a remarkably good shipper, 

 it reaches market in thoroughly first-class 

 condition. The trees are vigorous in growth, 

 can be depended on to produce good crops 

 and to fruit almost every year. In a word, 

 it is an important commercial Peach. 



DENTON. Ripens Aug. 25-Sept. 1. 

 Resembles the Elberta, but not quite so 

 large. Free. 



EASTON CLING. Ripens Sept. 10-25. 

 Fruit large, round; the white skin is tinged 

 with red blush; quality good. Cling. 



EDGEMONT BEAUTY. Resembles Late 



Crawford, ripening at same time. Fruit 



large, yellow with red cheek. Tree hardy and free. 



There is a wonderful advantage in purchasing and 

 planting Harrisons' Peach trees; every tree is grown 

 here at Berlin, and is budded fiom parents that have 

 been tested in our trial orchards, and proved of the 

 highest value for either home or commercial planting.
