PEACH TREES—Continued 
Hale-Haven. A large new yellow freestone; developed at 
Michigan Experiment Station, by crossing the two popular 
varieties, J. H. Hale and South Haven. Its high color even 
before complete ripening, gives great market value because 
of the advantage of premature picking, packing, and ship¬ 
ping without loss. It tests very high for hardiness and pro¬ 
duction ; and is in truth, a splendid, profitable variety— 
richly colored and flavored. Ready two weeks before Elberta. 
Heath Cling*. White clingstone, very large, used for pickling 
and canning with stone in, good flavor. Ripens in October. 
SJ. H. Hale. Enormous size, ripens 5 days earlier than 
Elberta. .A beautiful round golden yellow Peach, has won¬ 
derful flavor, keeps well and is an all-around wonderful 
market sort for planting. 
Xemon Free, Lemon shape and color, light yellow inside; 
extra good for canning, one of the best bearers in existence, 
very hardy in all climates. A good sort for commercial 
plantings. 
Marig*Old. Introduced a few years ago by the New Jersey 
Experiment Station, ripens about 5 days after Mikado. Its 
tree is large and productive and its fruit resembles Mikado 
in size and appearance, but is better in quality and nearly 
a freestone. 
Mayflower. Bright red cheeked, the only July Peach that is 
well colored. Inclined to overbear, should always be thinned. 
Mikado. (June Elberta.) Semi-clingstone, ripens 30 days 
ahead of Elberta. Yellow with red cheek ; quality excellent, 
makes good Peach for early roadside trade; very productive 
and hardy. 
Oriole. Another variety from the New Jersey Station, is 
ready by the middle of August, a week after Marigold, and 
about a week ahead of Rochester. The tree is large and 
very productive. The fruit is medium to large in size, 
roundish, yellow, very good in quality, and a freestone. 
Radiance. Also originated at the New Jersey Station ; white; 
freestone; high quality; slightly softer than Cumberland 
and lacks uniformity of size. Hardy; ripens just after but 
overlaps Carman. 
Rochester. Called the best early yellow freestone. Ripens 
about August 10th. Large, very free stone; tree strong 
grower; sells remarkably on the market; tree comes into 
bearing young and is prolific. We call it one of the best 
sorts for orchard planting. 
Salberta. A highly successful cross between Salwey and 
Elberta, conserving the size and quality of the Elberta and 
the lateness of the Salwey, making it a truly wonderful 
Peach; it has been used in Northern Ohio successfully and 
pleases all who have tried it. September, late. 
Salwey*. Best late Peach sold on market, yellow, large and 
prolific ; tree hardy and vigorous grower; flesh juicy, rich, 
sweet. Ripens October 1st. 
Shippers’ Late Red. (Big Red.) A new Peach with several 
distinctive claims. Of good round shape, bulkier than El¬ 
berta, so beautifully surfaced with red it attracts the eye. 
The flesh is yellow, sweet, juicy and of pleasing flavor; 
freestone. Bears young, annually and abundantly; the tree 
is very hardy. Its greatest commercial advantage—aside 
from supreme quality—lies in its ability to stick on the tree 
much longer than most sorts, thus many times saving the 
entire crop where lack of time, continued rains or glutted 
markets create wastage. 
South Haven. (Early Ohio.) These two are identical. This 
Peach is a success, injecting into the market a valuable sort. 
Comes in a barren period preceding the Elberta, better than 
average in size, globular, dependable bearer, hardy and pro¬ 
lific. Meat is deep yellow, juicy and delicious, outside at¬ 
tractive deep yellow with red cheek. This is one of the best 
sorts for market. 
Vedette. A seedling of Elberta of Canadian 
origin. Ripens about 3 weeks before Elberta 
or just before South Haven. The tree is pro¬ 
ductive and the fruit large, roundish oval, yel¬ 
low fleshed and a freestone. We recommend it 
for trial. 
Valiant. A seedling of Elberta of Canadian 
origin. A large yellow-fleshed, high-colored 
Peach, ripening just after Vedette. Very hardy 
and productive. Same season as South Haven. 
Wilma. (Late Elberta.) A seedling of the El¬ 
berta, about 10 days later, in shape a trifle 
rounder, colors up better, has better flavor, and 
has the advantage of coming when Elberta is 
gone.
