PEACHES 
for Qanning and Bating 
Hardiest Dry Weather Varieties 
Peaches picked fresh from your own orchard are 
the finest flavored and best. Only a few cents a tree 
now* and one crop of fruit pays for the tree many 
times over. Plant only 15 ft. apart. Use as fillers in 
apple orchards until your apples come into bearing. 
They usually come into bearing within 3 years. 
Polly—Most Delicious of All 
Polly is the outstanding' hardy 
lege. The Carter Orchards, at Glenwood, Iowa, tested Polly, the tree pro¬ 
ducing the first crop in 1920. For 10 years out of the next 12, Polly pro¬ 
duced a big crop every year. Judged on its orchard performance, Polly is 
probably our hardiest peach. 
Large size fruit, 2% to 3 inches in diameter, a pale, creamy-white over¬ 
laid with a deep red blush, freestone, white meated, juicy and of the high¬ 
est quality; ripens about the middle of August. 
ELBERTA. This tree is a heavy bearer. Ripens in early September. 
Freestone, large yellow with red cheek. Keeps well. Flesh is yellow. 
CHAMPION. Has a wonderful flavor, large fruit, white meated. Ripens 
in August. Very hardy in the Central States.

ROCHESTER—Hardiest of All 
Three years ago when many peach trees were 
killed out through temperatures of 30 below zero, 
Rochester came through and produced a big fruit 
crop the next year. Commercial peach growers 
are finding Rochester their biggest money-maker. 
It’s sweet and highly flavored. Ripens early in 
the season. The fruit is an orange yellow blushed 
deep dark red. The skin is thick and tough, mak¬ 
ing it a good shipping peach. It keeps well, too. 
It’s juicy, extremely hardy and starts bearing 
early, producing a big crop every year. 
The flesh is yellow stained with red near 
the pit. 
MAYFLOWER—Earliest of All 
Ripens in the middle of July. Blooms 
late, escaping late frosts. Is often called 
“The Frostproof Peach.’’ Bears young, 
has good size and fine color, being red 
all over. Almost a freestone. If you 
have trouble growing peaches, try May¬ 
flower.
