PEACHES, continued 
der by ten days. The first Georgia ship- 
ments are always Sneeds. This year, a late 
season, the first shipment left Georgia May 
23 — they were Sneeds. 
Stonewall Jackson. Very similar to Gen. 
Lee in size and quality ; about one week 
later. 
Susquehanna. Large ; yellow, with red 
cheek; flesh yellow, rich, juicy, fine flavor. 
Fine for canning. Ripens last of July. 
Stump the World. Very large, white, 
with bright crimson cheek ; flesh white, 
juicy, well flavored ; freestone. An excellent 
market sort. August 1 to 10. 
Stinson’s October. Large ; white, with 
red cheek; flesh white and of good flavor; 
clingstone. The last to bear and one of 
the very best late Peaches. Middle of 
October. 
Thurber. Large ; white, with crimson 
cheek ; flesh very juicy, vinous, with a deli- 
cate aroma. A seedling of Chinese Cling, 
but a freestone, resembling the parent in 
size and beauty. Middle to last of July. 
Triumph. Recent. An early, yellow- 
fleshed freestone (when fully ripe) Peach. 
Medium to large ; skin orange-yellow, well 
covered with a rich carmine ; flesh juicy, 
melting, slightly subacid ; good quality. 
Ripens with Alexander. Of particular value 
as a shipper because, aside from its carrying 
well, its yellow color, well marked with car- 
mine, and very attractive appearance, make 
it well received in market among the early 
Peaches. 
Wager. Large ; yellow-fleshed, of fine 
flavor ; a valuable variety for canning. 
Ripens last of July. 
Wheatland. Large ; golden yellow with 
crimson coloring in the sun ; flesh yellow, 
firm, juicy, sweet, excellent ; freestone. 
Ripens about July 10. 
Wonderful. Very large ; yellow flesh, 
firm, good ; good shipper for late market ; 
freestone. End of August. 
CHERRIES 
T HE Duke and Morello varieties are well adapted to northern Mississippi, 
Alabama, Georgia, the western Carolinas, Kentucky and Tennessee ; farther 
South they are a failure. In the territory mentioned they are very profitable, 
almost always bearing a full crop and finding ready sale. The Hearts and Bigar- 
reaus are very uncertain, and we do not recommend them. All varieties ripen 
here during May into the middle of June. 
Prices, first-class, well-branched, thrifty trees, 4 to 5 feet, 25 cents each, $2 for 10, 
$15 per 100; special quotations on larger quantities
