resembling this variety. Its color is 
pale-yellow, covered for the most part 
with a deep blush, while the skin is 
very tough; the flesh is quite juicy and 
tender with a fine flavor, and a free-

delicious, sweet, rich and juicy; very- 
hardy, productive. August. Free. 
Chinese Cling — This type has of late 
years produced several improved seed- 
lings, which, although not all attaining 
the enormous size of the original va- 
riety, are, however, of better flavor 
and less predisposed to decay, and of 
less straggling habit of growth.

son; succeeds the Crawford’s Early;

planted.

Lowell, Mass. Tree low, spreading, 
willowy habit of growth; fruit buds

side; perfect freestone; pit small; flesh 
yellow, juicy, tender, sweet and rich. 
Early Canada — Originated at Jordan, 
Canada. As early as the earliest. Of 
good size, of firm quality and hand- 
some appearance. Its earliness, origin, 
and the fact that the flesh cleaves 
from the stone almost as freely as with 
the later varieties, creates an unusual 
demand for trees of this variety.

with a delicate pink cheek; flesh melt- 
ing, with a remarkably rich flavor. 
Larger and ten days later than Alex- 
ander. One of the finest peaches for

ket! Ripens with Crawford’s Early.

ville, Ontario, where it stands the win- 
ters perfectly, and for the past four

know of. Quality first-class, freestone, 
and we recommend it with entire con- 
fidence.
