As a result of the intensive breeding program 
conducted during the past few years by many 
state and federal research agencies, several prom- 
ising early-ripening, yellow-fleshed varieties of 
peaches have been introduced. They are superior 
to the older, white-fleshed varieties, such as May- 
flower, Early Wheeler and Early Rose and should 
entirely replace them in a few years. The demand 
for early peaches of high quality has far exceeded 
the supply in recent years, partly due to the de- 
velopment of the modern supermarket where tree- 
ripe peaches can be displayed to full advantage. 
We are listing peaches in order of ripening. 
Each peach will be fully described as to whether 
it is freestone or cling, as to home or commercial 
use, etc. As a rule a good commercial is equally 
as good for home use. We are offering only the 
best of peaches this year and you can not go 
wrong to plant any listed as they are all winners 
in every field. Our motto is grow and offer only 
the best so that you will have a satisfied customer. 
So when you make your selections from this list 
of peaches you can be assured you are getting the 
best the peach industry has to offer you. 
“SMAYFLOWER .. . Ripens last of May. One of 
the earliest ripening peaches, medium sized white 
overcast with red clingstone peach. Good only 
for an early peach for home use. 
DIXIE RED ... Since the Elberta is the standard 
among peaches and one everyone knows we will 
give ripening dates in contrast to Elberta. The 
Dixie Red ripens about 42 days ahead of the 
Elberta, making it an early June peach. Very 
prolific. Clingstone, flesh yellow and about three- 
fourths of the surface covered with an attractive 
red blush. Good all around peach, both com- 
mercially and home use. Brought highest price 
on the market this year. Don’t overlook the Dixie 
Red, one of the best. Chilling 1050 hours. 
“\ CARDINAL ... Cardinal ripens six and one-half 
weeks before Elberta or about June Ist in this 
area. It is only medium sized but seems to have 
commercial possibilities due to its very early 
ripening date. The fruit is round, a clingstone and 
has an attractive red blush covering a bright yel- 
low background. The yellow flesh is very firm 
and of good flavor for a peach ripening so early 
in the season. Cardinal should not be planted on 
a commercial basis very far south or east of 
Stephenville as 900 hours of chilling 45° or lower
