Admiral Dewev The Admiral Dewey is without question one of the best 
* of the early fruiting varieties of peaches. Its chief 
value lies in its being a fine shipping fruit for either local or distant markets. 
The tree is a strong grower, hardy and very productive. The fruit is large, 
uniform, bright yellow in color, blushed on sunny side. The flesh is yellow 
to the pit and of very high quality. This is the earliest yellow freestone and 
is highly prized for dessert purposes. Ripens middle of June. 
Elberta 
Albright Cling T^ is variety was originated by Mr. Albright, near Placer- 
. . vine, California and is a great favorite among canners 
especially in the San Joaquin valley. It ripens about the first week in August 
thus enabling the canners to make a more continuous run. 
The tree is a strong vigorous grower and a good bearer. The fruit is very 
large and uniform in size, yellow in color, having a bright red cheek on the 
sunny side. Its quality and flavor are of the best. 
Alexander The Alexander peach has the reputation of being the best 
t # known and most widely grown of the early fruiting varieties, 
lhe fruit is medium to large in size and very uniform in shape. The skin is 
of a greenish white color, partly covered with a deep red; the flesh is white, 
juicy and of good flavor. We highly recommend the planting of this variety to 
those who wish to supply their local markets, as well as to all who intend 
planting in family orchards. Rioens about the 10th of June. 
Bilyeu Late J° those desiring a superb freestone peach which is suitable 
for table use or for furnishing local markets, late in the sea¬ 
son we do not hesitate in recommending the Bilyeu Late. 
The tree is an exceptionally strong grower bearing fruits of large, uni¬ 
form size, greenish white in color, blushed red on sunny side. The flesh 
is white and of fine flavor. Ripens October 15th. 
Blood Cling This cling is quite commonly known among fruit growers 
as the Indian Cling, and is highly prized for pickling and the 
making of preserves. The flesh is very red and preserves made from this 
variety present an attractive appearance.
