ELLIVANGER & BARRY'S 
The Elberta Peach. 
This variety originated in Georgia some years ago. and has proved to be one of the most valuable 
for that region. It is also highly spoken of in other parts of the country. Here in New York State it 
has done remarkably well, and is considered highly promising. Large, yellow; quality good. Ripens 
about with Crawford’s Late here. 25c. 
The Columbus Gooseberry. 
This is one of the most valuable introductions of recent years in small fruits, and it fully sustains 
the high opinion first formed of it, as will be seen from the reports given below from high and com¬ 
petent authority. It was introduced by us a few years ago. The fruit is of largest size, handsome, of 
a greenish yellow color, and the quality is excellent. The plant is vigorous and productive and does 
not mildew. It merits a place in every garden. 50 cents each, $4 per doz. 
The editor of the Rural New-)'orker says: “It is the best variety yet introduced and seems close to a 
perfect Gooseberry for our climate.” 
Again, in the issue of the same paper, July 21, 1894, he says: “There seems little to be said that has not 
already been said respecting Gooseberries at the Rural Grounds. Columbus is, this season, all that it was last. 
We have three bushes all laden—overladen—with large, smooth berries, as large as the average foreign kinds. 
There is not a trace of mildew upon either fruit or foliage, and the Columbus seems to us this year, as last, the 
best variety in the market for those with whom the foreign kinds do not thrive.” 
THE COLUMBUS IN CANADA. 
From the Canadian Horticulturist , January, 1895. A correspondent writes: “ I planted this variety in the 
spring of 1893. They fruited that year, just enough to show the form and quality. This year the bushes were 
heavily loaded, and the fruit was of the best quality, very large in size, oval in shape, quite smooth, and greenish 
yellow in color. It is greatly superior to the Industry. No trace of mildew, and a most abundant bearer.” 
THE W1NCHELL GRAPE. (Reduced.) 
The Winchell Grape. 
The earliest white grape ( identical with Green Mountain). This white grape has been thoroughly 
tested for several years in our vineyard, and it has proved so satisfactory in all respects that we can 
recommend it with the utmost confidence to our customers. It combines hardiness, fruitfulness, vigor, 
good size, and excellent quality. 
Though not the largest, yet both berry and cluster are of good size, and the flavor is excellent, 
ranking in this respect as a grape of the first class. In time of ripening it may be described as very
