20 HARRISON'S NURSERIES, BERLIN, MD. 



Carman— A peach of North China type that promises great value. The or- 

 iginator says it is either a seedling of or sister to Elberta i tree or same habit of 

 growth, only has larger and darger colored foliage. Tree hardy and productive, 

 and fruit practically rot proof, as original tree, standing in lo^-, wet ground, has 

 perfected its fruit two seasons, while other vari^-ties all about have rotted entire- 

 ly. Carman is described as larjje, broad oval in torm, pointed; skin yellowish 

 white, dotted and flushed red; fl-sh creams white, slightly tinged red, of a 

 sprightly vinous flavor. The Rural Xew-YorRer tirst described it some years 

 ago as an extra large, yellow peach, like Elberta, only ti\e weeks earlier ; it 

 certainly is of Elberta type, but it is not strictly a yellow, neither is it white. 

 The Texas Farm and Ranch sa\ s: ''Carman peach is of iartie size, oblong, re- 

 sembling Elberta, and is the best flavored early peach we know; the skin is 

 tough, and it is jast the peach to ship a long distance.^' The a^ove is J. H.

 ■crops In the Connecticut we have a tree that is a vigorous gsow r and a heavy 

 annual bearer, with iruit bud- so hardv that it never fails to produce a crop, even 

 in New England- The fruit itself is all that can be desired, large and handsome,
