PEACHES 
Our peach trees are propagated from bud wood from heavy 
producing strains. And endorsed and passed on by our state 
inspectors as being free from the VIRUS DISEASE. 
Numerous plantings made from our trees have shown a pro- 
duction of a bushel each on 2-year-old trees and up to 3 bushels 
on 3-year-old trees. 
NOTICE the report given in this catalog by Ernest C. Brunk. 
SEMI-FREESTONE 
Mayflower—The earliest of all, medium sized, creamy white, 
mottled with red, semi freestone, white, juicy flesh. Late May. 
CLINGSTONE VARIETIES 
Indian C.iing—A medium to small blood red peach, red meat, the 
finest peach available for pickling. 
Orange Cling—Fruit large; yellow rich, sugary, vinous flavor. 
The tree a heavy bearer, hardy. 
Lemon Cling—Large sized lemon color. 
the best canners for the clings. 
Triumph—One of the earliest yellow meated varieties. While 
it is a Cling it has a wonderful flavor and is especially adapted 
to the early fresh fruit market. An abundant bearer. 
FREESTONE PEACHES 
EARLY VARIETIES 
Golden Jubilee—One of the finest new varieties. The fruit ripens 
about a week earlier than the Rochester. The fruit is large in 
size, golden yellow with red blush. Yellow flesh of extra fine 
quality, fine grained, juicy, extra fine flavor. Excellent quality, 
acclaimed one of the best shipping varieties on the market. 
Excellent for canning which distinguishes it from others of 
the early varieties. A freestone and in a position to get com- 
mand of the early market and command the premium in price. 
Essentially an extra early Elberta. 
Massasoit—An excellent new freestone similar to Rochester in 
appearance but of firmer texture and later to ripen. It is espe- 
cially popular in the Hood River district; it has proven a fine, 
profitable commercial peach. 
Oriole—A very early yellow meated freestone of commercial 
quality. Highly recommended. 
Rochester—One of the varieties that has proven itself as one of 
the first freestone peaches to reach the market. Large golden 
yellow with heavy covering of crimson; firm, juicy, sweet. This 
is an exceptionally prolific variety with a tree that can stand 
up under its abundant load of golden fruit. 
Early Crawford—One of the old stand-bys in the early mid-season 
group. It has all the characteristics that gratify the taste. 
Large rich yellow, with red blush and markings. Vigorous and 
very productive. Freestone. 
July Hale—A Lafayette introduction, originated in Boise Valley, 
Idaho. A more highly colored and slightly smaller J. H. Hale, 
otherwise identical. Ripens from July 10 to 15. An excep- 
tional heavy and sure bearer. We have a very limited supply 
of this remarkable, early ripening freestone. Promises to be 
one of the most profitable of all varieties commercially. Sold 
Out. Will be available for delivery fall of 1947. 
MID-SEASON 
Champion—Large round, quite regular; yellow-white with red 
cheek; white meat with red at the pit. One of the best in qual- 
ity and a general favorite of great hardiness. 
Charlotte—A sport of the Early Crawford ripening 10 days to two 
weeks later than the Crawford. Similar in texture and descrip- 
tion to the Crawford but of better quality. Freestone. 
South Haven—One of the new peaches of outstanding quality. 
Golden yellow color, with beautiful red cheek. Freestone. 
The flesh is golden yellow, fine grained, firm, rich and sweet, 
ripens two weeks or more ahead of the Elberta, coming into a 
new and open market. The tree is hardy and an early producer, 
and a heavy yielder. Some canning authorities rank the South 
Haven with the J. H. Hale as a canner but coming on the early 
market. 
Hale Haven—Unsurpassed for flavor, size, quality and beauty; 
the leading commercial peach ripening in season between the 
Golden Jubilee and Early Elberta. This luscious, firm, fine 
grained, golden meated freestone, colors a brilliant red with 
a yellow background; size and shape comparable to the J. H. 
Hale, unexcelled for canning, shipping and quick freezing; 
exceptionally hardy and a heavy producer. 
Fine quality, one of 

Red Haven—A recent introduction of the Haven peach varieties 
somewhat smaller than its parent, the Hale Haven, but more 
highly colored, very firm and almost fuzzless. A very heavy 
producer, ripening about 5 days earlier than the Golden Jubi- 
lee. A valuable commercial freestone peach. 
Slappy—Fruit yellow, a good keeper; increasing in demand as a 
canner; excellent flavor, fine grained. Hardy, best medium 
early yellow freestone. 
LATER VARIETIES 
J. H. Hale—Very large round peach; yellow with carmine touch; 
very firm one of the best commercial varieties with the leading 
canning markets at its command. Freestone. 
Improved or Late -Hale—Comes into ripening just as the J. H. 
Hale season closes, thereby continuing the Hale season about 
10 days. Identical with J. H. Hale in color and other respects 
except a considerable larger, hence brings premium prices. 
Also trees are rampant growers and prolific annual bearers. 
Plant this variety for larger profits. 
Elberta—One of the finest of all varieties. Freestone. Good 
sized; oval, yellow fruit with red cheek, well favored, consistent 
bearer. A good canner and an attractive fruit for stand use. 
Improved Early Eiberta—One of the best commercial freestone 
varieties for canning and quick freezing. Color, deep golden 
yellow, covered with a red blush on side exposed to the sun. 
Shape and size compares favorably with the standard Elberta, 
however, fruit ripens about 10 days earlier. Firm in texture, 
an excellent shipper and unexcelled for quality. 
Valiant—A medium sized, firm, yellow meated freestone. Very 
similar to the J. H. Hale in shape, ripens with the Hale Haven 
and similar in color. Trees hardy and heavy in production, 
excellent for quick freezing. 
Muir—Late August, fruit very large; skin yellow, easily peeled. 
Meat yellow, mild and tender. Freestone. One of the supreme 
canning varieties. A good bearer and quite resistant to curl 
leaf. 
Countess Late Elberta—ldentical to the Elberta but ripens about 
two weeks later, which makes it a very valuable peach for 
the later markets. 
Late Crawford—Large roundish oval, yellow with heavy red 
blush, flesh yellow, with red at the pit; freestone. Very fine 
flavor and quality. Ist to 1Oth of September. 
Salway—One of the latest peaches. Round greenish yellow skin, 
yellow meat, firm, tendency towards being dry of juice. Valu- 
able for the !ate market. 
Krummel—An extremely late commercial variety. Excellent 
shipper. Fruit large, almost round, deep yellow with a carmine 
blush, fine grained and firm. 
APRICOTS 
Blenheim—Above medium size, oval shaped, deep orange. Flesh 
full yellow, juicy, fine flavored. 
Moorpark—Fruit large, round. Yellow blushed red in color. The 
flesh is quite firm, bright orange, freestone. Fine commercial 
cot. 
Mormon (Chinese )—Very similar to Tilton in color, texture and 
ripening period. Especially adaptable for cold sections. 
Tilton—Large in size, somewhat flat, orange color. Prolific 
bearer, being considered the most prolific of any apricot. 
Either for canning or drying. 
Wenatchee—Large. Resembles the Moorpark but is much su- 
perior. 
Would like to place my order for 50 No. 1 Improved 
Elberta peach trees for February delivery. 
The 800 Elberta trees you sold us in February, 1941 
bore 800 bushels in 1943 and were the talk of the country.

I have planted some Brooks apricots, which are just 
starting to bear. The fruit is large and has a fine flavor 
and are solid enough to stand handling. If I plant any 
more apricots they will be Brooks.
