FIVE NEW PEACHES—SPECIAL. 
We herewith offer for the first time, some new peaches that are the result of a 
special line of work, which we have carried on for several years past, namely: the 
planting of selected seed from selected seedlings of particular strains or types of peaches. 
The origin of the five varieties herewith offered, was from the planting by us in 
1887 of a large number of seed from improved seedlings of the Honey Peach , in which 
the parent seedlings had already shown a marked deviation from the type, and as a 
result we have some varieties that are a surprise to all those who have seen them, 
including ourselves. The fruit from over two hundred seedlings of the above men¬ 
tioned origin was carefully tested by us in 1891, direct from the trees planted in our 
own orchards, and eleven trees (out of the two hundred) were marked with num¬ 
bers as being especially valuable. From these eleven trees we have, this year, 
made a still further careful selection and reduced the number to five, all of which 
are possessed of genuine and individual merit, and to which we do not hesitate 
to attach our name. We wish to say, however, that the names and num¬ 
bers under which these peaches will be sold during the coming winter, is only a 
temporary arrangement, as we want our customers to help give these fine peaches 
some suitable names, and offer them liberal inducements to do so, as follows:
