Inter-State s Original Strain 
-—The Finest White Peach 
Polly originated at the Iowa Experiment Station, Ames, and was 
sent to Mr. J. W. Carter, one of Iowa’s leading orchardists. It 
started bearing in 1920 and BORE A FULL CROP EVERY 
YEAR FOR TWELVE YEARS. Then by mistake the original 
tree was destroyed. However some young trees had been propa¬ 
gated from the original. Even in the terrific drought of 1934 these 
young trees produced a good crop of fine fruit which was sold 
right at the orchard for $2.00 a bushel to customers who had 
placed their order ONE YEAR IN ADVANCE. For nearly 20 
years Polly has been tested. Every winter it has withstood below 
zero weather, as cold as 20 below. 
The fruit is large, beautifully blushed—a perfect free-stone, 
ripening a few days before Elberta. The flesh is white, juicy, but 
firm and full of the richest, most luscious flavor. All who have 
been fortunate enough to taste Pollv, agree that IT IS THE 
FINEST FLAVORED PEACH THEY EVER ATE. When 
canned it stays firm and you ladies know that makes the sauce i 
look so much nicer. Polly is best for home use and local markets 
as it will not stand long shipping. The tree is a healthy, very i 
vigorous grower of semi-spreading upright form with strong ' 
branches. It is a heavy, regular bearer. i 
PLANT POLLY—NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST 
You folks living in the north even where it gets as cold as 15 
below zero, even colder occasionally, can now raise your own 
peaches as Polly is so much hardier. But we want to emphasize 
this fact—POLLY IS NOT A PEACH JUST FOR THE NORTH. 
IT IS A PEACH FOR THE SOUTH, THE EAST, THE WEST. 
The fruit has such a wonderful flavor and is produced so abun¬ 
dantly, that it is an outstanding peach even where other varieties 
can be grown. POLLY IS THE FINEST WHITE PEACH. 
Mrs. Seef Van Orsdoll, Cof- 
fevville, Kansas, wrote us 
April 19, 1937—“The Polly 
Peach that we set last spring, 
43^ feet tall, now has about 
20 peaches on it. Sungold 
only 3 feet tall has 9.” 
Polly was introduced exclus¬ 
ively by the Inter-State Nurs¬ 
eries in the spring of 1934. 
You will get the Original- 
strain from us.
