Brackett Is a New Recognized Commercial Variety 
Captain Edc —Mid-season, yellow, freestone, large. 
Cumberland —Early, white, semi-freestone, new variety. 
CARMAN —Early, white, semi-freestone, medium size, being a 
remarkably attractive and luscious peach, oval shaped, yel¬ 
lowish white with bright red cheek; flesh creamy white, spicy 
and good flavor. Tree is very hardy, strong grower and the 
heaviest producer of the early varieties, also a sure cropper. 
Carman stands shipping so well that it reaches the market 
in prime condition and with its handsome appearance causes 
it to bring satisfactory prices. 
CHAMPION —Early, mid-season. White, freestone, very large, 
creamy white with red cheek, sweet, juicy; very high flavor, 
good shipper when properly grown; its fault, if anything, is 
that it is too tender. Reason why Champion has lost its past 
commercial importance is that it will not carry satisfactorily 
under refrigeration in cars for four to seven days, but as a 
home garden or a roadside peach, it is one of the best. Tree 
is hardy, large grower and productive. 
Crawford's Early — Mid-season, yellow, freestone, large size, 
juicy, sweet flavored, highly prized for canning. Tree strong 
grower and prolific bearer. One of the old time commercial 
varieties, which has been extensively planted in years past 
but now mainly a home market fruit. 
CRAW FORD LATE —Late, yellow, freestone, superb in size 
and shape; splendid yellow, with broad dark red cheek; flesh 
deep yellow, juicy and melting, rich, winy flavor. One of 
the best late sorts. Tree vigorous, hardy and sure bearing, 
coming at a time when the mid-season peaches are over, 
this variety is eagerly bought up for canning and preserving, 
and brings highest prices. Being such a remarkably good 
shipper, it reaches the market in first class condition. An 
old commercial favorite.
