OLD MIXON PEACH. 
OLD MIXON. This is a fine, large, ex- 
ceedingly productive variety, succeeding well 
in all localities and well deserving of the high 
favor in which it is held as an orchard vari- 
ety. Skin yellowish white with a red cheek; 
flesh white but red at the stone; tender, rich 
and excellent. Our strain of this variety is 
the best to be had, and were grown frorn a 
tree more than fifty years old, now standing 
in a healthy condition on the ground of J. 
W. Kerr of Denton, Md. September 10th. 
BEQUETT FREE. Large; skin greenish 
white, blushed and marbled with red; flesh 
white and of fine quality. It is a certain and 
heavy bearer and the fruit is all large. Just 
about like the Elberta except it is white. 
September 10th. 
BELLE OF GEORGIA. A large white peach 
with beautiful red cheeks, one of our most 
hardy and reliable bearers, and regarded as a 
most valuable, standard, commercial variety 
by all experienced growers. Tree a rapid 
grower and comes into bearing early. Sep- 
tember 10th. 
"Grand for family or market, most reliable white fleshed peach known." 
ELBERTA. Here is the King of Market Peaches! An exceedingly large, light-colored 
yellow peach with red cheek. Flesh yellow. This is truly a fine peach, noted for its large 
size and fine appearance. The tree is vigorous and very productive. No other peach has 
made such a name for shipping and none is cultivated more extensively. It is the ideal 
market peach, and a royal fruit. The fruit market has never yet had too many of this 
sort. A perfect freestone. Commercial growers have made more money on this variety 
than on all others. September 10th to 15th. 
STUMP. A large, roundish white peach with red cheek; a valuable commercial variety. 
There has been considerable confusion regarding this variety, some planters having a 
strain ripening with Old Mixon, but ours were grown from healthy bearing trees, npemng 
after Elberta. September 10th to 15th. 
CRAWFORD'S LATE. A standard 
sort, of large size, considered by 
some the best of its season, and as a 
yellow fleshed peach, unequaled in 
quality. September 15th to 20th. 
FRANCES. A large yellow peach 
ripening just after Elberta. By 
time the latter is done Frances is 
ready for shipment and this pre- 
vents the occurrence of a break in 
the succession and reaches the mar- 
ket at a time when peaches are in 
great demand. It is a very hand- 
some peach. September 15th to 
20th. 
"A very handsome and promis- 
ing peach, especially for market." — 
Ohio Exp. Station, Bulletin 170. 
"Hardy, vigorous and produc- 
tive, large, handsome and of good 
quality; ripens just 
which is a valuable 
favor."— £. H. Riehl
