HOLDRIDGE’S BOOK OF BERRIES—1940 
PEACH TREES 
We are offering for sale this year three kinds of peach 
trees. These are all Northern grown trees and will do well for 
you in your own garden or on your farm. 
Now is the time to plant trees to replace those which have 
passed the bearing age. Those who plant trees this year will 
have fruit three years from now when there may be a scarcity 
of fine peaches. 
We have three varieties this spring which will fill the needs 
of most gardens and farms. 
CHAMPION—This is a large white peach. There is noth¬ 
ing that will beat in flavor this very fine peach. It is freestone 
and ripens a short time before Elberta. 
GOLDEN JUBILEE—This is one of the outstanding newer 
varieties of peaches. It is a yellow freestone peach and bears 
almost four weeks before Elberta. With us it is one of the 
first peaches to bear and we have had fine yellow peaches to 
eat and sell, while most peach growers have only white peaches 
to sell. Don’t fail to include a few of this variety in your order. 
ELBERTA—This is the old standard variety of peaches. 
It is the best canning peach and the best for your main crops. 
It will bear tremendous crops of fine yellow freestone peaches 
year after year. We have some fine trees of this variety to sell.

Dear Sirs: 
Peach trees that I purchased from you in 1939 were fine. 
Lived in spite of very dry season and put on good thrifty growth. 
Will be sending in order for more very soon.
