Leader of all Peaches and the greatest commercial variety on the 
market; 50% ot the Peaches planted are Elberta. In all probability 
no Peach will succeed over so wide a range of territory as this kind; 
it will thrive where any Peach can be grown. A beautiful Peach of 
good quality, not only the best orchard variety but also valuable 
for planting in the garden. Elberta is hardier in bud than many 
varieties, therefore a more uniform cropper. It is large, yellow with 
red cheek, juicy, high flavor. Flesh yellow; freestone. Season medi- 
um early following quickly upon Early Crawford. Sept. 15th—20th.

Marvelous new Peach, a result of crossing the famous 
J. H. Hale with South Haven. A large, beautiful col- 
ored, yellow fleshed Peach, ripens approximately 10 days 
to 2 weeks ahead of Elberta. Perfect freestone, strong 
grower, good shipper, and a prolific, heavy bearer. The 
tree is hardy and fruit is of the highest quality. Has extremely high 
color which is present several days before the fruit ripens, thus 
allowing early picking for distant shipments. Should be included 
in every planting. September 1st—5th 
Peaches can be grown on any soil that will 
produce the average yield of farm crops and 
are especially adapted to the lighter soils. 
Careful cultivation and intelligent pruning 
will work wonders in the production of 
Peaches. If properly cared for, the trees are 
sure to bring in a handsome return on your 
investment. As in other fruits it is impera- 
tive, however, that your trees are of the best 
stock. It is very important that wood 
growth on Peach trees is well ripened and 
that they have a good and sufficient quan- 
tity of fibrous roots, so they will withstand 
the hot sun and drought that may occur 
after planting. 
Dates after each description indicate ap- 
proximate ripening season in Western 
New York. Season varies in different sec- 
tions of the East, but this will give you 
an approximate idea when to expect the 
fruit to be ripe.
