> 
type, though it ripens about two weeks ahead of _ 
Elberta. It is a freestone peach with yellow meat 
and highly colored skin. It ripens over a period of 
near two weeks, which makes it very fine for local : 
marketing. 
Hale Haven. Ripens Nout midway between 
Golden Jubilee and Elberta. Has the large size and 
round shape of the J. H. Hale, is a perfect freestone, 
and has a tough skin that makes it one of the best 
shipping varieties. Yellow fleshed and highly col-

ping quality and larger size, make it one of the very 
best for commercial planting. The tree is an ex- 
cellent grower.

ripens at least two weeks earlier. White with red 
cheek. White, juicy flesh. Good shipper.

Elberta. More roundish and slightly sweeter.

July.

orous and productive; very valuable. Ripens dur- 
ing August. At the head of the list for commercial

Elberta, which it follows about one week. The 
fruit is large, colored red, with yellow flesh and 
freestone. Fruit is firm and ships well. A desir- 
able variety. 
Gage Elberta. This comparatively recent intro- 
duction came from an Illinois orchard from a bud 
sport of Elberta, and in its years of trial has proven 
highly disease resistant. Tree has many charac- 
teristics of the Elberta, but is more spreading in 
habit of growth. Blooms come later than those of 
Elberta, and fruit ripens about 5 days after Elberta. 
Heath Cling. One of the old favorites. A late, 
white clingstone peach that keeps well when re- ~ 
moved from tree. Excellent for cooking whole as © 
stone gives no bad flavor. Ripens in September.
