BRAY'S RARERIPE. "If you 
are located where peach buds 
are very liable to winter kill, 
plant some of these, for they 
are very hardy in bud, and 
need to be thinned. White 
with red on sunny side; free- 
stone, flesh fine grained. Heavjr 
bearer. October 1st to 5th. ' 
— L. E. Covert, New York. 
IRON MOUNTAIN. "Size 
large, shape oblong or egg 
shape, color pure white, some- 
times having a slight blush. It 
is perfect freestone and has as 
good quality as any white 
peach ever grown. Season 
September 20th to October 
10th, according to season and 
soil." — /. H. Black & Son. 
CHAIR'S CHOICE. Much like 
Late Crawford, but a week la- 
ter in ripening, and like Late 
Crawford, needs a rich, strong 
soil to do its best. In western 
New York, these varieties are 
regarded as among the most STEVENS' RARERIPE 
profitable commercial sorts, 
Tsut they are generally unprofitable in this section. September 25th. 
WILLETT. This peach we have not fruited, but it is described as a very large yellow 
peach of the Late Crawford type. We received our buds from Mr. Willett and they are 
the genuine. 
"Its hardiness in bud, beauty, excellent shipping quality, and special adaptability^ 
for all purposes make it one of the most promising varieties for the commercial grower. ' 
— Dept. of Agriculture. 
"It is more than good." — W. L. McKay, New York. 
SMOCK. Medium to large, light orange yellow, with red cheek; flesh yellow, rich, 
excellent quality. October 1st. 
MATTHEW'S BEAUTY. This peach is said to be a cross between Elberta and Smock. 
The fruit is large and ripens about two or three weeks after Elberta. As it grows in this 
section, the fruit is large, green in color. The tree a shy bearer and not considered a de- 
sirable variety. 
STEVEN'S RARERIPE. Large, white peach with red cheek. Tree hardy in bud and a 
good bearer. Steven's is regarded by growers in the Hudson River section as one of the 
l>est commercial varieties, and has been planted largely by some of the best posted growers 
in Connecticut the last few years. We fruited this variety this season and thought very 
highly of it. It was certainly best in quality of any peach we ever saw of its season. Septem- 
ber 25th to 30th. 
"High quality, heavy and regular bearer." — L. E. Covert, New York. 
"The favorite variety in the Hudson Valley to follow Elberta, ripening a week or ten 
days later. A good shipper. Is often held in cold storage eighteen to twenty-one days 
■without loss, when its fine appearance insures top prices." — E.W. Barnes, New York. 
SALWAY. A large, round, deep yellow peach with dull red cheek ; flesh firm and rich. 
In this latitude needs to be planted on early light soil. October 1st to 5th. 
"Produces more blossom buds than most varieties which are winter hardy, nearly 
always needs thinning of fruit." — E. W. Barnes, New York. 
"Produces a crop when other varieties fail." — L. E. Covert, New York. 
EMPEROR. Very large, yellow fleshed; skin a beautiful yellow with red cheek.
