ductive. Fruit is of the Belle type, medium to large in size and very at- 
tractive; flesh medium firm, good or above in quality, and free from the

and flavor it resembles Arp, but while Arp is very stringy in texture and 
a strong cling, Marigold is a semi-cling with tender flesh and follows 
Mikado by a few days. 
Oriole—is in season about a week after Marigold and a week ahead of Gold- 
en Jubilee. The tree is vigorous and productive. The fruit is medium to 
large in size, roundish, yellow, very good in quality, and a freestone. It

H. Hale with Delicious. The fruit, which ripens about ten days after Rari- 
tan Rose or just before Halehaven, is of good size, highly colored and of 
firm texture. Its quality is far superior to other white-fleshed peaches 
ripening in its season or earlier.

Slappey. It is a large, highly-colored, bright, firm, smooth peach which
