PEACHES 
for every locality 
Most Profitable for 
Home or Market 
One must have seen a number of Peach trees in bearing state 
In order to realize how much fruit they are able to produce, 
and how large a profit can be had from even a small planting. 
There are no peaches as good as those you grow at home, and 
If you select the right varieties, suitable for your locality you 
will have crops pretty regular. For the orchard I do not recom¬ 
mend the planting of Peach seedlings, the space is too valuable 
to take chances with seedlings. Plant only budded varieties in 
your orchard, then you know what you will have. Plant 16 by 
16 or 18 by 18 feet apart. Or use peaches as fillers in your 
apple orchard.

nhflmniori (Freestone.) Fruit fairly large, creamy white 
^ixcbxxxjuxuxx with red cheek. The flavor is excellent, sweet, 
rich and juicy, white-meated. It stood a temperature of 18 
degrees below zero and produced an abundant crop the follow¬ 
ing season. I can say of Champion that it is the hardiest 
freestone peach I have ever known, and for years I have sold 
more Champion peach trees than of any other variety of peach. 
For Nebraska and any place in the Middle West I highly recom¬ 
mend the Champion. August. 
nvnwfm’rl ’o "Parltr (Freestone.) A good market peach, 
t/iOiWlUiU o shell Ly fruit very large, oblong, yellow with 
showy red cheek. Flesh yellow, juicy and sweet. A good 
bearer. Ripens in August. 
Flhprtn (Freestone.) Probably the best known market 
peach. Fruit large, yellow with red cheek, flesh 
yellow, firm, juicy, good quality. I can hardly recommend it 
for Nebraska. It does well in Michigan and Ohio, and espe¬ 
cially in the South. Ripens in August. 
E’firlv ’R’Vhprfq (Freestone.) A little larger than the El- 
xjcxxxjr xjxuox ia berta, but otherwise the same except that 
It ripens earlier when yellow freestones are scare and bring a 
good price. I can recommend it highly for Southern Illinois, 
Indiana, Southern half of Missouri and Kansas and from there 
south. For the Middle West it is not quite hardy enough. 
lrl (Freestone.) In hardiness and productiveness 
x. ibXigoiaxu just as good as the Champion, however, flesh 
Is yellow. My father used to say “wherever Champion and 
Fitzgerald are not hardy you waste your time trying another 
variety.” Ripens in August. 
TTph+Vi Plincr (Clingstone.) Large and round, white, juicy 
Xioaiiil and fj ne quality. Best peach for pickles, 
reasonably hardy here. Ripens in October. 
Planting 
Instructions 
Fill in with good 
top-soil all around 
the roots and up to 
within a few inches 
from the surface of 
the ground. Then 
pour in a bucket full 
of water. Let the 
water soak away. 
Later finish cover¬ 
ing the hole with 
loose soil. The latter 
makes the best 
mulch. 
T?pH "RirrJ Semi-cling. Thia 
iWCU. -Dll U i s a new variety, 
medium early. Very hardy, and 
the quality is very good. Will 
make a fine fruit for home use 
or market. I have never grown 
this tree to bearing size. An 
oldtime friend of mine told me 
about this peach to be unsur¬ 
passed in hardiness, quality and 
productiveness for the Middle 
West. 
Belle of Georgia f t r onT 
Very large, white with red 
cheek, flesh white, firm and of 
excellent flavor. Hardy most 
anywhere south of here. Ripens 
a few days ahead of Elberta. 
J. H. HALE 
J. H. Hale 
(Freestone.) Larger than the Elberta, almost 
round, the color is rich golden yellow covered 
with carmine. Skin thick and almost smooth (without fuzz) 
Flesh dark yellow, fine grained and firm, parting easily from 
the pit. The tree is hardier than Elberta, in fact there are a 
good many J. H. Hale trees in the southern half of Nebraska 
bearing well. Next to the Champion this is my best seller 
Ripens end of August. 
Mayflower 
(Semi-cling.) Ripens well ahead of Elberta, 
u - -- -- really the earliest white-meated market 
peach. It is of good size, good quality, and has a beautiful red 
color even before it ripens. Blooms rather late and is about as 
hardy as Alexander Early. Ripens early in July. 
■RnpllPRtpr (Freestone.) Fruit very large, yellow, sweet. 
xiUUlCDliCt juicy and of delicious flavor. It keeps well and 
makes a fine shipper. This is one of the recent novelties, and 
is gaining in popularity. Ripens middle of August. 
Cn/vp (Freestone.) Very hardy and an abundant bearer. 
fruit about the size of Elberta, dark yellow with deep 
crimson blush. Flesh yellow, very firm, juicy, quality as good 
as the best. It ripens after all other peaches are gone, here 
first of October. This gives Sage a special value for the 
market grower. I do not have this tree every year, have a fair 
supply on hand this season. Sage is scarce. Only 4 to 6 fool 
trees at 75c each; 3 for $2.10. 
Rio Oso Gem 
(New Freestone.) A patented va¬ 
riety. It is no doubt the finest look¬ 
ing peach I have ever seen. Extra large, perfect in 
quality, and makes a wonderful shipper. Market grow¬ 
ers make no mistake in planting this tree. Therefore, 
makes a good combination with Hale for a long bearing 
season. I have nice trees, all 2 to 3 foot size for 58c 
each, prepaid. 
PEACH SEEDLINGS 
These little trees are grown from seeds, some of them will 
bear fruit that can be used, some people plant them in wind¬ 
breaks together with Apricot Seedlings. The Apricot Seedling 
is sure to bring good fruit, while some of the Peach Seedlings 
may just make small peaches. Peach Seedlings grow rapidly 
1 do not recommend planting Peach Seedlings as fruit trees 
in the orchard. On such a place a budded peach should be 
planted. Price: 12-24 inch (not less than 10 sold), 10 for $0.60; 
25 for $1.25; 100 for $3.90. 2-3 foot. 10 for 85c; 25 for $1.50, 
postpaid. 
NECTARINE 
A Smooth-Skin Peach 
There is little difference between a Nectarine and a 
Peach. The Nectarine is about as large as a medium 
size peach; they have a wax-like appearance and are per¬ 
fectly smooth. The excellent eating qualities of the Nec¬ 
tarine makes it a desirable fruit for the home garden. 
I recommend it for the Southeast Nebraska, and from 
here south. Can furnish your choice New White and 
Red Roman Nectarines. Both good varieties. Price: 4-6 
foot nice trees, 70c each; 3 for $1.90.
