RED HAVEN. Our limited supply of the Red 
Haven does not justify the space in our cat~ 
alogue that this new variety merits. Intro- 
duced by the Michigan State Experiment 
Station. Bright red coloring on a yellow 
background; smooth, almost fuzzless. Firm 
flesh; fruit ripens uniformly. Trees are 
strong growers and prolific bearers. Fruit 
should be thinned for best results. Has pro-

eties were Winter killed. Ripens about five 
days before the Golden Jubilee, which up to 
this time has been the leading commercial 
Peach of its season. 10c. per tree extra.
