Mikado 
Tree medium in growth, fruit ripens 
first week in August, attractive yellow 
with red cheek. Semi-cling ; flesh juicy ; 
a good early sort. 
V aliant 
Introduced a few years ago by the Horticultural Station, 
Vineland, Ontario, has proved very promising and might well 
be described as an improved Elberta. The tree is vigorous and 
productive; the fruit is large, roundish oblate, an attractive 
yellow color, with red blush; flesh medium firm and juicy, 
very good quality; freestone. About two weeks ahead of 
Elberta. 
Eclipse 
Originated at the New Jersey Experiment Station as a seed¬ 
ling of Belle. It is a yellow freestone peach which ripens 
about a week before Elberta and about two weeks after Golden 
Jubilee. It has a deep red blush on a yellow background 
which is attractive; quality is good; fruit is medium to large; 
very hardy. 
Oriole 
Another variety from the New Jersey 
Station is ready by the middle of Au¬ 
gust, a week after Marigold, and about 
a week ahead of Rochester. The tree is 
large and very productive. The fruit is 
medium to large in size, roundish, yel¬ 
low, very good in quality, and a free¬ 
stone. 
New Hope Farm 
A good shipping white-fleshed sort 
with yellow outside with red blush, very 
prolific freestone; ten days earlier than 
Elbertas. 
Radiance 
Also originated at the New Jersey 
Station ; white ; freestone; high quality ; 
slightly softer than Cumberland and 
lacks uniformity of size. Hardy ; ripens 
just after but overlaps Carman. 
The HARDEE Peach Variety 
The fruit is a yellow freestone peach, having a thick skin, and in size, color, 
texture and juiciness of flesh, and general appearance resembling Elberta, 
except that it has a more prominent tip, and that it is more elongated than 
Elberta or other known varieties of peaches ripening at about the same time. 
The fruit is a deep yellow color with a striking red cheek. The flesh is yellow. 
The flavor is distinct with a very decided peach taste. 
The fruit’s shipping and keeping qualities are good. It is a good all-pur¬ 
pose Peach, having fine qualifications for dessert, cooking, and canning. It 
is good for home use and is also a good market Peach. A DELICIOUS HIGH 
QUALITY YELLOW FREESTONE PEACH WITH OUTSTANDING “BUD” 
AND “WOOD” HARDINESS. Ripens in Northern Ohio, about Sept. 10. 
The particular feature of the original tree, which was considered most 
important was its steady bearing, sure-cropping characteristic, and this, 
with the other characteristics above described, has been reproduced in the 
reproductions by budding. These reproductions have been tested under 
government observation. The resistance of the tree, leaves, and fruit, re¬ 
spectively, to insects and disease is good. It has resisted well the dry seasons 
encountered, and is particularly resistent to cold. Accordingly, the hardiness 
of this variety in its resistance to cold is an outstanding characteristic.

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

Hung-aria’s Best. Original tree of this has not failed in 
bearing throughout a long term of years, thus assuring us 
of its hardiness. Valuable to us of the North, who appreciate 
growing our own Apricots. Tree grows to immense size ; fruit 
large, good quality, beautifully colored deep yellow ; yellow 
flesh, very fine flavor. Plant 25 to 30 feet apart. 
Superb. This variety excels in productiveness and bears where 
others fail. We think it the best sort for the North where it 
does well; large, well-colored fruit.
