SECOND-EARLY PEACHES, continued 
RED BIRD (Early Wheeler). Cling. 
Early June. A large and beautiful Peach. 
Only fair eating quality but stands shipping 
well and generally brings top prices on the 
markets. 
EARLY SUMMER PEACHES 
CARMAN. Semi-cling. June 20 to 30. Of 
good size; yellowish white, dotted and 
flushed with red; excellent flavor and 
quality. Bears young, fruits heavily, and 
should be thinned. 
OLDEN) JUBILEE. Free. Late June. A 
rather new variety introduced by the New 
Jersey Experiment Station. A yellow free- 
stone similar to Elberta, but much earlier— 
in fact, earlier than Hiley. We have tested 
it thoroughly and recommend it for home 
or orchard planting. 
HALE HAVEN. A most popular introduc- 
tion. A handsome yellow-fleshed, red free- 
stone Peach ripening between Golden 
Jubilee and Hiley. A heavy producer with 
a deliciously sweet flavor. Recommended 
for ether home or commercial plantings. 
HILEY (Early Belle). Free; white-fleshed. 
July 1 to 5. Fruit of good size; dotted pink 
on under side and brilliant red next to sun. 
Quality the best of its season and surpassed 
by few Peaches of any season. Handles and 
carries well and is splendid for all purposes. 
Fruit should be thinned early in May. 
SULLIVAN ELBERTA. We consider 
this the finest of all the new Peaches. 
Exactly like the regular Elberta, 
with all its virtues and all its faults, 
but ripens a week or ten days earlier, 
right after Hiley. 
EARLY HILEY. June 20 to 25. Of 
exactly the same fine quality as 
Hiley, but ripens about ten days 
earlier. 
MIDSUMMER PEACHES 
BELLE OF GEORGIA. Free. July 
5 to 15. Very large; skin faint pink, 
rich red in sun; flesh fine-gratned, 
white, tender, and of best quality. 
A fine all-round midsummer Peach. 
CHINESE CLING.: Cling. July 20 
to 25. A favorite of large size; 
creamy white, with beautiful blush; 
flesh high quality. 
ELBERTA. Free. July 10 to 25. 
Large; skin reddish yellow, faintly 
striped with dull red; flesh yellow, of 
good quality. Tree is vigorous, 
hardy, and long lived. As many Elbertas 
are grown in Georgia orchards as all other 
varieties combined.

MIDSUMMER PEACHES, continued 
INDIAN. Cling. August 1 to 10. Medium, 
round; dingy red with red veins; flesh 
dull red. 
J.H. HALE. Free. Late July. Nearly round; 
skin yellow with glowing red on upper 
side and very little fuzz; flesh yellow, of 
good quality. Red lands are recommended 
for this Peach. 
AUTUMN PEACHES 
WHITE ENGLISH (Heath Cling). Cling. 
Latter part of September. Of good size; 
skin between white and yellow; flesh white, 
firm, fine-textured, juicy, and of excellent 
flavor. 
Fruit Trees a Safe Investment 
_ There is an increasing demand for 
fruits—good fruits. For more than a 
decade the fruit market was almost 
stationary. In most parts of the country 
orchards were utterly neglected, and 
younger orchards were only partially 
cared for. AIIl this meant smaller crops, 
and a greatly reduced quantity of quality 
fruit. During the past two or three years 
the demand has increased, and the trend 
is upward. Land should now be put into 
an orchard of peaches or apples. Light 
inter-cropping ought to pay all carrying 
charges until the trees come into bearing. 
You then have a safe and profitable in- 
vestment.
