I ALL RED DELICIOUS —Has the same size, flavor and shape as the common Deli¬ 
cious, but this variety is a deep bright red, which completely covers the apple. 
Flesh is very white, crisp and very juicy. Heavy bearer. 
YELLOW DELICIOUS —Fruit golden yellow; flesh pure white; very crisp and juicy; 
very fine quality. Tree bears young with enormous crops. The old fruit growers 
claim this is the peak in apples. 
JONATHAN —Medium, nearly covered with brilliant stripes of lively red; very showy, 
juicy, excellent; trees spreading and slender; bears early. November to February. 
Apple trees are easy to grow. They thrive in almost every climate and soil. The 
Apple is the King of Fruits. Never were all conditions more favorable for the person 
who would plant an acreage of fruit for market purposes. A few acres of fruit with 
reasonably good care, will bring a larger cash income per acre than anything one 
can grow.

ELBERTA —-The great American market peach; produces big, profitable crops. Fruit 
large, bright, attractive, yellow with crimson shading; flesh firm and of good 
quality. Will ripen perfectly when picked green. One of the best for home or 
market use. Free stone. September. 
CHAMPION —Fruit large, delicious, sweet, juicy; skin creamy white, with red cheek; 
handsome, hardy and productive, and a good shipper; adhering slightly to the 
stone. White flesh. August 15th.

and shipping well; skin prettily blushed and mottled. Strong growing and hardy, 
an annual and prolific cropper, ripening about August 10th. 
SOUTH HAVEN —^One of the newer peaches grown much in Michigan. It stands our 
cold winters better than any of the other varieties. Flesh golden yellow; rich and 
sweet; firm, excellent shipper and keeper; freestone; ripens 2 to 3 weeks ahead of 
the Elberta. Tree is hardy, healthy and is a vigorous grower and heavy producer. 
HALE-HAVEN —This is a cross of the J. H Hale and the South Haven, which de¬ 
velops a very large Peach of the Hale type and with the hardiness of the South 
Haven. We do not believe that Hale-Haven is quite as hardy as the South Haven; 
the fruit, however, is much larger Try a few trees of this new variety.

stone. A good shipping variety.
