PEACHES, continued 
BRACKETT. ^ peach of the Smock type. The fruit is large to^ 
J very large, oblong in form, with pointed apex. An aver¬ 
age specimen weighed 5^ ounces. The color is orange-yellow, mottled with: 
carmine, and darker carmine cheek; the mottlings indicate the Chinese strain,. 
The flesh is deep yellow, juicy, and highly flavored. Ripens after Elberta. A 
grower in Georgia claims that Brackett brings him 50 cents a bushel more 
than other varieties. It seems to be one of the most valuable new sorts. (See- 
special prices for Brackett, page 23.) 
BELLE (Belle of Georgia). Ripens early in August. Fruit 
___ very large and most attractive in color and shape, 
with a light red cheek; flesh white, firm and delicious; the 
quality is fine. The Belle of Georgia has become one of the 
standard varieties in the big commercial orchards of the' 
United States, as it stands shipping to all markets in such a —. 
way that it invariably brings the best prices. In many respects it is equal to 
Elberta. 
CARMAN. Ripens third week in July. This is a favorite variety with 
- -;- many grower^ as it is one of the most profitable in its season 
of ripening ever introduced. The returns from a successful Carman orchard 
are almost beyond belief, and the fruit stands shipping- so well that it always 
reaches market m prime condition. The fruity is remarkably attractive and 
luscious, large and broad, oval-shaped, yellowish white, flesh creamy white 
red with tinge, spicy and good; free. This is a valuable early Peach.
