TRADE-MARK 
You can cash in on those early-market profits with this new, 
very early, yellow peach of top saleable quality. Here are a few of 
the unique commercial advantages of Gold Dust Peach. The greatest 
advantage is its exceptional early-ripening date. The fruit matures 
in early June, a few days later than Florence Peach, two weeks 
earlier than Red Haven, and thirty days earlier than Kim Elberta 
(Early Elberta) ( July Elberta), which is the direct parent of 
Gold Dust. 
The fruit has ideal selling appeal! It has good size for an early 
bearer, averaging 23¢ to 234 inches in diameter when properly 
thinned. It has a desirable shape, being a perfectly symmetrical 
sphere. The flesh is good, solid-yellow color, clear to the pit. Prac- 
tically all other good early peaches are white fleshed. The pit is 
relatively small in size. It has a highly colored skin with attractive 
red mottling over the yellow. In outer appearance it greatly 
resembles Red Haven. The skin is very smooth with practically no 
fuzz or down. 
The flavor of the fruit is indeed unique for such an early ripener! 
Gold Dust has a juicy, crisp flesh with a very pleasing, mild, non- 
acid flavor.
