A few of tlie hardiest varieties of good quality, most reliable for 
New England, ripening in order named. All freestones except 
Triumph, which is partially free. 
Triumph. Ripens with Alexander ; large, yellow, handsome, 
and of good quality. We do not advise setting it largely. 
Early Rivers. White, with pink cheek. Flesh rich and 
melting. 
Carman. Said to be “rot and curculio-proof, as large and pro- 
ductive as Elberta, as early as Early Rivers, of good quality and a 
fine shipper.” A Peach with so many exalted qualities deserves a 
trial in a limited way. 
Mountain Rose. Of finest quality ; large, white with red 
cheek ; productive and very popular in market. 
Champion. Similar to Oldmixon, but two weeks earlier; more 
inclined to rot and slightly inclined to cling. 
Connecticut. A large yellow Peach, ripening just ahead of 
Early Crawford. Very hardy, and of the best quality. Sure to 
become a popular local Peach, if not for general cultivation. 
Fitzgerald. Of Canadian origin. Said to be large in size, of 
magnificent quality, very early, a splendid shipper, exceedingly 
hardy and productive, and a perfect freestone. Four Peaches 
weighed two 
pounds. 
Early Craw- 
ford. Very large, 
yellow; good 
quality. A very 
popular Peach. 
Reeves’ Fa- 
vorite. A very 
large yellow 
Peach of finest 
quality. Until the 
introduction of 
Elberta, has been 
our most profit- 
able yellow va- 
riety. 
Foster. An 
extra large yellow 
variety, but has 
been inclined to 
rot with us, and . 
very slightly in- '• 
dined to cling. Conntcticu.
