OUR TREES ARE AMERICA’S NO. 1 VALUE 

SHIPPERS LATE RED (13a) 
A Favorite Wherever Planted 
Hard To Equal As A Large, Productive, Hand- 
some Peach To Follow Elberta. 
A large, very highly colored attractive red, yellow 
fleshed freestone and good quality peach of distinct 
Hale type. Ripens just after Elberta and J. H. Hale. 
A good shipping peach, extremely productive. Very 
hardy and its beauty and size enables it to bring top 
prices on the markets. This splendid variety should 
be planted more extensively as we know of no 
variety we can recommend more highly for a peach 
to follow the Elberta. 
Much confusion exists regarding the various 
strains of this variety. We are growing the true 
type as determined by comparison with fruit in U. S. 
D. A. test orchards, which is known as the Hale type. 
GAGE ELBERTA (3b) 
A Disease Resistant Bud Sport of The Famous 
Elberta Peach, Which We Can Recommend Highly. 
Recommended for resistance to bacterium 
pruni. The tree grows as thrifty as the Elberta 
and looks much like the old time Elberta. Gage 
Elberta blooms from two to four days after 
Elberta and apparently has a very strong blos- 
som setting a crop of fruit under unfavorable 
conditions. The fruit is so near like the Elberta 
that only an expert can distinguish the differ- 
ence. It ripens two to three days later than 
Elberta. 
This variety is proving well adapted to 
Southern conditions in the trial planting at 
Columbia and Clemson, South Carolina and is 
to be preferred over the Elberta in many 
respects. 
THE BRACKETT PEACH (18) 
PROVING A GREAT COMMERCTAL PEACH 
This is a comparatively new variety in some sec- 
tions, but has been tried and proven one of the most 
profitable peaches in the South and Central areas. Its 
season is about five days after Elberta, with a beau- 
tiful orange-yellow skin tinged with carmine. Flesh 
is a deep yellow and much lighter flavored than 
Elberta. This peach sizes up well under heavy crops 
and is equal to Elberta as a shipper. <A perfect free- 
stone and a real peach. 
Introduced by us in 1925, 
HOPE FARM (14) originating on Hope Farm, 
Bergen County, New Jersey, home of the late Mr. 
Collingwood, editor of Rural New Yorker, farm paper. 
A large, white-fleshed freestone peach of superior 
quality. Follows Elberta about five days in ripening. 
Partially self-fertile. Extremely hardy in bud. Pro- 
ving a favorite and filling a need for a good white 
peach to follow Belle of Georgia.

Gemmers Late Elberta (15) 
RINGS THE BELL—A WINNER 
Now fruiting over a wide area, growers every- 
where marvel at its fruiting ability, size, beauty 
and quality. 
Beautiful color, large size, excellent quality, fine 
shipping and keeping ability combine in GEM- 
MERS LATE ELBERTA to make it one of the 
most promising varieties we have ever observed 
to follow the Elberta season. Gemmers late 
Elberta has what it takes to become a leader of 
its season. 
Originating in the orchards of Mr. Conrad Gemmer, 
Sussex, N. J., we have observed this peach for several 
years and it seems superior in appearance, size, qual- 
ity and shipping ability to any other peach we now 

have to follow Elberta. It is a typical Elberta in 
fruit and tree characteristics. It ripens 8 to 12 days 
after Elberta, just following Shippers Late Red and 
before Lizzie and Salberta. There is a place here for 
a good Elberta type peach and we believe Gemmers 
Late Elberta will fill it. N. J. Experiment Station 
has grown Gemmers for several years and seem fav- 
orably impressed with its performance at New Bruns- 
wick. Fruits are very uniform, large, well covered 
with a brilliant red on an attractive golden yellow, 
almost fuzzless, having a smooth tough skin. Flesh 
very firm, being slightly tinged with red about the 
pit but red does not extend into the golden yellow 
flesh. Originating at Sussex, N. J., well up in the 
Mountains where many varieties of peaches fail to 
stand the climatic conditions should recommend 
GEMMERS as a hardy variety both in tree and bud. 
WE RECOMMEND “GEMMERS LATHE HLBERTA” 
FOR TRIAL IN ALL PEACH SECTIONS WHERE 
YOU WISH TO CONTINUE THE ELBERTA SEHA- 
SON WITH A RBHAL PEACH. 
LIZZIE (16) 
SIZE — FIRMNESS — FINE COLOR — EXCELLENT 
QUALITY COMBINE TO MAKE THIS PEACH A FAV- 
ORITE TO FOLLOW GEMMERS LATE ELBERTA 
The origin of this peach has not been fully deter- 
mined yet it has been very successfully grown by 
commercial orchardists of N. J., Conn., and in sev- 
eral Southern states. It is a distinct Elberta type 
peach, very large, freestone, having a fine yellow 
flesh and the peach ripens slowly after being taken 
off the tree. It ripens from 12 to 16 days after 
Elberta, colors well with a handsome red over a deep 
yellow undertone. The tree is thrifty, hardy, heavy 
bearer of regular crops. Some growers consider it 
the best of our present list of real late peaches.

the Bountiful Ridge Way, many trees now over 6 ft. tall. 
No fertilizer of any kind was used in the growing of these 
trees. They are living results of, That Good Bountiful Ridge 
Soil—proper crop rotation before planting the seedlings and 
proper care (The Bountiful Ridge Way) during the growing 
season. This added up means “Planter Success.’’
