DELICIOUS PEACHES 
The Peach requires a well drained moderately rich soil. Warm sandy loam is considered the 
most ideal, but hundreds of the best orchards in the Ohio peach belt are on heavy clay and others 
on heavy black loam. If you want the best all round Peaches, for home use or market, and varieties 
that will produce fruit and lots of it and trees that will stand the most severe winters, and bear 
when others fail, we have them in the following seven varieties of Special Mentioa. 
VARIETIES OF SPECIAL MENTION 
These with the excei)tion of the Hale and 
Wilma were introduced by us. some of them 
over 20 years ago. and are varieties of local 
origin here in the peach'belt of Northern Ohio. 
They have stood the test of time both in com¬ 
mercial orchards as well as in small home or¬ 
chards, and have given the greatest of results 
whenever we have sold them. They have far 
surpassed our expectations and our claims for 
them. 
We recommend the Briner, named from the 
man from whose orchard we first got buds, for 
large size, uniformity, freedom from disease, na¬ 
ture of foliage, and above all quality. As large 
as Filberta and 100 per cent better. As hardy 
as Klberta and all leading varieties. 
We recommend the other three for extreme 
hardiness both of tree and in bud. For fine qual¬ 
ity and for being extra heavy and sure bearers. 
Fully as hardy, even if not more so, as Crosby 
or (rolddrop, jtist as heavy bearers and as good 
flavor, and much larger. 
could find a stray peach still left as he said 
whenever he wanted a good peach to eat for 
himself he always took a Heidelburg if he could 
get it, and that he considered it the best flavor¬ 
ed peach that he had over grown. And the rich¬ 
est, when canned. 
We cannot recommend these varieties too high¬ 
ly. If you want varieties that will bear when 
most others fail, trees that will stand the win¬ 
ters, trees that will do well on heavy soil, that 
will produce fruit, and lots of it, and of good 
size do not fail to plant them. 
^••.—BRINER — Yellow free stone of finest quality; 
large and is always evenly distributed over the 
tree so that there is very few small peaches 
mixed in. Tree of low branching habit, with 
the small, dark green typo of foliage which is 
uot subject to curl leaf. Equal to Elberta in 
size and superior in quality. Ripens a few days 
learlier than Elberta and stands shipping ordin- 
hiry distances well. 
In 1915 we saw several orchards of several 
hundred trees each in the Ohio peach belt, of 
Day’s Nonpariel, loaded to the ground with 
highly colored fruit, and the size of the latter 
was a surprise, evtm to us. A large per cent 
would grade AA. and the balance A, and in one 
orchard of about 100 trees, which wert» heavily 
loaded last year, and as a consequence not quite 
as full this year, almost every peach would grade 
extra fancy, and was as large as any Elberta 
the grower had had. They were on good ground 
and well cared for. The grower had, however, 
set two rows of them next to his Elberta orchard 
on the side toward a sw^imp for the reason that 
they would stand the lower and heavier soil bet¬ 
ter than Elberta or most anything else. 
In another orchard of several thousand trees., 
just at the close of the Elberta season, when 
someone wanted a real good peach to eat. the 
owner told him that he would go over to his 
Heidelburg orchard, where they had finished 
picking some ten days before and see if we 
\J DAY — Another heavy bearer of the very finest 
peaches, and a very hardy tree; yellow free¬ 
stone and colors up well on the tree. Originated 
in our orchard. One large peach grower says: 
“I would rather lose any other variety in my 
orchard than the Day’s Nonpariel.” Good size, 
but should be thinned for market growing. 
Ripens between Late Crawford and Smock. 
J. H. HALE— This is the new variety advertised 
so extensively and sold in immense numbers 
throughout the country in the last three years. 
Claimed to bo a few days earlier than Elberta, 
larger, and better, and just as good a bearer 
as that variety. \Ve offer fine trees at an ordi¬ 
nary price. \ 
>* > - HE IDELBHRG- -The peach i>ar-excellence for 
home use; yellow freestone of good size; de¬ 
licious flavor and small pit; hardy tree and 
heavy bearer. A splendid market variety and 
stands shipping well. Ripens just after Early 
Crawford.
