A SERIES OF ATTRACTIVE, EARLY, YELLOW PEACHES 
The Early and Late Crawford varieties of peaches which originated in 
New Jersey before 1850 became famous throughout the country for their 
attractive appearance and edible quality. They do not, however, meet the 
requirements of long distance shipping because of their tender skin and 
flesh. 
Systematic breeding carried on at the New Jersey Agricultural Expert- 
ment Station since 1919, has produced several promising new varieties 
with most of the good characters of the Crawfords and better adapted to 
present day requirements. 
Among these promising new varieties are four early yellow fleshed 
seedlings, all ripening before Golden Jubilee. They will not be named or 
released for general propagation until they have been more widely tested. 
However, trees are available now through the New Jersey Peach Council 
under wthemintroductionmrumipers: Nee} 0, ae Nome) Pel) 7 een ee ee TC 
N. J. 135. This provides an exceptional opportunity to secure trees of the 
most promising extra early yellow fleshed varieties of peaches developed 
at the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station during the last 35 years. 
LOCAL MARKET OR HOME ORCHARD VARIETIES 
Neral 53. 
An attractive, yellow fleshed, peach of medium size and exceptional 
edible quality for its season. It ripened at New Brunswick on July 14, 1945, 
or about a week before Red Bird, and over two weeks before Golden Jubilee. 
It is hardy, almost free when ripe, but too small under average conditions 
to meet the requirements of the wholesale market. It is promising for 
local markets and home orchards because of its bright red color, high 
quality, and early maturity. 
NE TE. ahoW/ 
A bright, attractive, yellow fleshed peach of good quality. It is larger 
than N. J. 133 and ripens about a week later. It is somewhat firmer than 
Golden Jubilee, hardier than Elberta, and the tree is a strong, vigorous 
grower. It should make an ideal variety for the home orchard or local 
market.
