Deciduous Fruits Department 
PEACHES, continued 
iags, rich, juicy, very sweet and of remarkably 
tine fla\or ; freestone. Ripens June 25 to July 
5. We consider this variety, originated and in¬ 
troduced by ourselves several years ago, as one 
of the very best of the numerous good 
varieties that have originated from the 
I loney. 
TRIUMPH. (Per.) Ripens with Alex¬ 
ander, blooms late, d'lie tree makes a 
strong growth, bears young, and yields 
abundantly. The fruit is of large size, 
with very small pit. Skin yellow, nearly 
covered witli red, dark crimson in the 
sun. Flesh bright yellow, free when 
fully ripe, and of excellent fla\or. 
VICTOR. (N. C.and 
Sp.) In 1897 this ex¬ 
traordinarily early new 
variety ripened its 
whole crop of fruit 
between May Sand 16, 
on the originator’s 
grounds, in S m i t h 
county, Texas. Fruit 
medium to large, of 
pleasant subacid 
flavor ; semi - cling. 
The tree is a vigorous, 
compact grower and a 
heavy annual bearer. 
The originator claims 
that it is uniformly 
ten days earlier than 
Sneed, which makes it 
undoubtedly the earli¬ 
est variety in exist- 
salmon to dark red on side next the sun ; flesh 
yellowish white, red at the stone, juicy, melting, 
sweet; of good quality ; free. Ripens w ith the 
Peen-to. A seedling of Peen-to, supposed to 
be crossed with Honey. Waldo is not only a 
free and regular 
bearer, but it is 
also a high-colored, 
attractive fruit. 
The (luality of the 
fruit is far superior 
to the Alexander 
and other earp- 
Peaches of parallel 
and higher lati¬ 
tudes and, being a 
Waldo Peaches 
ence. 
VICTORIA. (Sp.) \Try large, nearly round; 
skin yellow ; flesh yellow, juicy, sweet and of 
excellent flavor; free. August 5 to 10. One 
of the best varieties of native origin, well worthy 
of a place in every southern Peach orchard. 
WADDELL. (X. C.) ITuit medium to large, 
oblong ; skin rich creamy white, nearly covered 
with red ; flesh white, firm, rich and sweet ; 
freestone. \Try prolific. Ripens June i to 10. 
WALDO. (P.-to.) Medium size, roundish 
(.)hlong ; skin highly colored, varying from liglit 
freestone, is preferred in market. In flavor it 
has the good qualities of the Peen-to varieties, 
without a trace of the bitter tang many of the 
latter are apt to have under ordinary condi¬ 
tions, This valuable Peach is not restricted to 
this district in its adaptability ; ■ it stands with 
the first and best of the very early sorts south¬ 
ward throughout the state. In the Gulf-coast 
section of Texas and Lower Louisiana it gives 
promise of being one of the most valuable and 
desirable varieties, and has given good results 
in the West Indian Islands. 
PLUMS 
Japanese Plums are adapted throughout a vast territory of the I’nited States, and there are 
already extensive and profitable orchards iit many and widely separated sections. In the 
extreme I.ower South the pure Japanese type is being suiiplanted by cross-bred varieties. Of these
