PEACHES FOR CANNING AND EATING 
COLD-RESISTING DRY WEATHER 
VARIETIES 
The peach is a great tree for dry cli¬ 
mates. These varieties are hardy, pro¬ 
ductive, and early bearing. These usually 
come into bearing in three years. 
The finest flavored and best peaches 
are those picked fresh from your own 
orchard trees. Just think, only a few 
cents a tree now and one crop pays for 
the tree many times over. These are the 
hardy abundant fruiting varieties. Plant 
only 15 feet apart. Use them as fillers in 
apple orchards until the apples come into 
bearing. 3 to 4 ft. 25c each tin lots of 25). 
Elberta Peach 
BELLE OF GEORGIA —A creamy white 
peach with a beautiful crimson cheek, 
grown largely for a commercial peach, 
but should be in every home orchard. 
The trees are hardy, vigorous, and 
very productive. Not quite as good a 
quality as Champion. Ripens a few 
days before Champion. 
CARMEN—It is a real white peach and 
ripens before other white peaches. 
Very hardy in the bud, niissing frost 
when others fail. You will like this 
peach. Freestone and good canner. 
CHAMPION —Considered the highest in 
quality of all white peaches. Flesh 
tender and juicy, with pleasant flavor. 
Skin is a creamy white with splashes 
of carmine and red. Tree is vigorous, 
healthy and productive. Ripens in late 
August or early September. 
CHINESE CLING —A large globe- 
shaped, creamy white peach with red 
cheek. The best of all clings in our 
opinion. Ripens around first of Sep¬ 
tember. 
ELBERTA —The standard market peach 
of the entire country. Very large 
Yellow with red blush; flesh is yellow, 
tender and juicy; very highly flavored. 
Rank, vigorous grower. Does well in 
all peach growing sections. Ripens 
middle of September. 
HENRIETTA CLING —Yellow with a 
crimson blush. A large firm, juicy 
peach of most pleasing flavor. Ripens 
about September 20th.

INDIAN BLOOD CLING—A very large 
cling peach, one of the best for pick¬ 
ling and preserving. Ripens about 
September first. 
JAPAN BLOOD DWARF —This peach 
cannot be recommended too highly. 
It is Japanese origin. The tree does 
not grow large. It is a heavy bearer 
and should be thinned when heavy 
loaded with fruit. The fruit is of a 
dark red and red flesh. Juice is blood 
red. Looks like beets when canned. 
Freestone. Bears young. It is best 
early peach we have ever grown. No 
orchard is complete without this peach. 
J. H. HALE—It ripens a few days ahead 
of Elberta. It is a deep golden color 
overlaid with bright carmine and of 
the best of quality. Whether in home 
orchard or commercial orchard, you 
should plant some Hale. 
MAYFLOWER — Very early, ripening 
about June 10th. Large, very attrac¬ 
tive, as it is a bright red. Flesh yellow. 
Semi-cling. Bears young. 
RED BIRD CLING—A creamy white 
peach, almost covered with red. Large, 
hardy, and good. An extra early good 
cling. Ripens about July first. Tbp 
same as Early Wheeler. 
We especially recommend the varieties 
underscored.
