tion.

flesh tender, fine flavor and quite juicy. August.

creamy white with red cheek, sweet, rich and juicy. August. 
Early Crawford. A large yellow quality peach. September.

- . New Jersey Experiment Station; already

juicy, tender, sweet, and freestone. 
Hale-Haven A large new yellow freestone; developed at 
- Michigan Experiment Station, by crossing the 
two popular varieties, J. H. Hale and South Haven. Its high 
color even before complete ripening, gives it great market 
value because of the advantage of premature picking, pack¬ 
ing, and shipping without loss. It tests very high for hardi¬ 
ness and production ; and is in truth, a splendid profitable 
variety — richly colored and flavored. Ready two weeks be¬ 
fore Elberta.

days earlier, with superior flavor. Color a beautiful golden 
yellow, with deep carmine blush. A good shipper.

ductive. September.

delicious flavor ; keeping and shipping well. Aug. 10th.

Salwey’s more profitable two weeks later picking.

Shippers' Late Red A new peach of large round shape, 
- beautifully surfaced with red, tena¬ 
cious. Flesh yellow, sweet, juicy, and of pleasing flavor.

- ■— — ular, prolific; cheek yellow with one red 
blotch. Flesh yellow, juicy and delicious.

PEARS 
Will grow on almost 
any good soil but 
thrive best in a rather 
heavy clay or loam. 
Standards planted 18 
to 20 feet apart, are 
best for permanent 
orchards; dwarfs at 
10-foot intervals, for 
fruit gardens or small 
lots. Dwarfs must be 
planted deep enough 
to cover the junction 
of Pear and Quince 
2 or 3 inches. All can 
be supplied as stand¬ 
ards, and all varieties 
starred (*) can also 
be supplied as dwarf.
