Peaches 
First-class trees, 4- to 6 feet, 15 cts. each, SI. 25 per doz., S8 per 
IOO; second size trees, 3 to 4 feet, 10 cts. each, $1 per doz., 
S6 per 100. 
We recommend the first-sized trees as the most satisfactory to 
buy. The crop grown on one tree will often pay the extra price 
on one hundred. 
A few of the 
hardiest varieties 
of good quality, 
most reliable for 
New England, 
ripening in the 
order named. All 
freestones except 
Sneed, Alexander 
and Hynes’ Sur- 
prise. 
Sneed. The 
earliest Peach to 
ripen in Connec- 
ticut — the only 
claim it has on 
propagators. 
Alexander. As 
handsome as a 
picture. Occa- 
sionally softens 
below the skin 
before rotting. cabman pbach. 
Caught at this 
time, it is good to eat. White, wholly overlaid with red, if not 
shaded. 
Early Rivers. White, with pink cheek. The beginning of satis- 
factory eating in northern Peaches. 
Triumph. Variable in size, homely in color, and as good to eat 
as it is homely to look at. Rots two weeks before it ripens. 
Hynes’ Surprise. When we have this Peach it is delicious, ot 
good size, and handsome. White, nearly overlaid with red. 
Badly subject to rot. 
Carman. As large as Mountain Rose and ten days earlier. 
Hardy, productive, of good quality, a good shipper. White, with 
rosy cheek. The best recent introduction among Peaches which 
we have fruited. 
Waddell. Similar to Carman, but smaller with larger seed. May 
prove a better shipper, having less flesh to bruise. 
Belle of Georgia. Handsome white Peach with red cheek. 
Connecticut. As we have seen this Peach in the past it has im- 
pressed us very favorably, but as it fruited with us the past season 
it appeared like an enlarged and extra woolly edition of Crosby, 
and about two weeks earlier.
