BABCOCK: Popular home orchard variety as well as commercial market 
peach. Tree is a strong grower and a heavy producer. Fruit is beautiful red 
color, flesh non-acid, honey sweet. A delicious table peach. Ripens early 
July. 
’ *ELBERTA: Most widely known and widely grown peach in the United States. 
In California it is used extensively for fresh shipment, canning and drying. 
The fruit is large, yellow, and of good flavor. Trees strong growers and 
heavy producers. 
~ *FAY ELBERTA: Finest of the Elberta types. Large fruit is yellow with a heavy 
red blush on the cheek. Flesh finer and sweeter than the ordinary Elberta. 
Small pit. Fruit dries heavier than Elberta. Ripens a few days later than 
Elberta. Finest home canning variety, an excellent commercial fruit for freez- 
ing, shipping and drying. 
‘FLORENCE: Early, red blushed, white, semi-freestone of good flavor. Medium 
to large size. Suitable for local market and home use. Early June. 
FIDLER: A good late summer peach. Ripens ten to fifteen days after Salway. 
Yellow flesh is firm with a pleasing flavor. An excellent dessert peach that 
ripens when other peaches are off the market. 
\ FISHER: (Plant Patent No. 233.) Few new peaches have the outstanding fea- 
tures of the Fisher. It has two important shipping qualities in its roundness 
and firmness. Unsurpassed for eating fresh. Fine “peachy” flavor, smooth 
texture. Ripens six weeks ahead of Elberta. Splendid for home orchard. (Add 
20c royalty.) Ripens June. 
J. H. HALE: A widely planted shipping peach. Fruit is large in size, beautiful 
in appearance, with an almost fuzzless skin, overspread with deep crimson. 
The flesh is yellow, red at the pit, unusually firm. An excellent shipping peach, 
and in big demand for home canning. Ripens just after Elberta. 
INDIAN FREE: Large, round, yellow fruit, deep red at stone. Rather tart until 
fully ripe. Good for shipping and home use. Requires pollination. Late July. 
*KIM EARLY ELBERTA: Similar in appearance to Elberta but ripens a month 
earlier. Fruit medium size, almost round, yellow with red cheek. Flesh yellow 
and firm. Best early commercial shipping variety. 
~LOVELL: Used extensively for shipping, drying and canning. Most popular 
for its drying qualities. It has a good reputation for sizing up well, and having 
a “narrow” drying ratio. One of its outstanding merits is the vigor and high 
productivity of the tree. Ripens late August. 
MILLER’S LATE: The latest ripening freestone, and a good peach for the home 
orchard in warmer sections. Fruit is medium to large, of good quality and 
a heavy bearer.

ELBERTA FREESTONE PEACHES 
“MUIR: Ripens late August. Unexcelled for drying. Contains more sugar than 
any other variety. Very large fruit, clear yellow to the pit. 
_\ NECTAR: (Ripens late June-July.) The finest early white-fleshed freestones we 
“have ever seen. It has size, beautiful coloring, a distinctive flavor with a 
delightful suggestion of nectarine tang and a wonderfully appetizing aroma.

family orchard. 
‘\ RED RAVEN: A new early yellow freestone of medium size. Good color, firm 
flesh. Good shipper. Late June. 
SALWAY: A fine reliable, yellow freestone, ripening in late summer when 
good peaches are scarce. Large fruit with deep yellow flesh, very juicy, 
melting and rich. Late September. 
\. STRAWBERRY FREE: A dandy early white peach. Creamy white skin, partly 
covered with a dark red. White flesh with a tendency to be quite red at the 
pit; tender and juicy. Splendid table peach for home orchard plantings. Early 
July.
