Matthews— It is a cross between Elberta and Smock, 

 showing a parentage of both- The fruit is oi large 

 size, above medium ; shaped similar to Elberta, but a 

 little longer. 



In the section where it originated, a noted fruit man 

 says it is the most valuable succession to Elberta so 

 far introduced. In comparison it is a size larger and 

 far superior in quality while its bearing and ship- 

 ping 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 red, 

 flesh yellow, firm and of excellent quality. Perfect 

 freestone.

 juicy and rich. I,ast of August.

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 if fellows 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 Elber- 

 ta. As this valuable variety comes from the home of 

 the Elberta, fruit growers should not hesitate to make 

 a thorough trial of this at once.
