A CATALOG OF NEW FRUITS 
The following varieties are introductions from Michigan Experiment Station. 
Fairhaven—is in season about with Sunhigh or two and one-half weeks before 
Elberta. This yellow-fleshed freestone has very fine quality and is very 
attractive. The trees are vigorous and tend to over bear if not well thinned. 
Halehaven—is rapidly becoming a standard peach variety. It is a yellow free- 
stone that ripens two weeks before Elberta. It is attractive, large and of 
good quality. It withstands handling well. The tree is vigorous, productive 
and hardy. 
Redhaven—is a highly colored, yellow-fleshed, freestone peach ripening a few 
days before Golden Jubilee or about with Oriole. It has good fruit quality 
and its flesh is very firm for an early peach. The trees set heavy crops and 
require early and thorough thinning or undersized fruit may result. The tree 
is vigorous and hardy. Redhaven is very slow to oxidize and excellent for 
freezing. 
The following varieties are introductions of merit from the New Jersey Experi- 
ment Station: 
Afterglow—is a large yellow-fleshed freestone which ripens a few days later 
than Elberta. It is a high quality peach which looks promising to extend 
the peach season. 
Jerseyland—tripens about one week ahead of Golden Jubilee. The fruit is very 
dark red, yellow-fleshed and firm for an early peach. Reported as a freestone 
in New Jersey but clings at Geneva unless dead ripe. As hardy in bud as 
Redhaven and about the same season. 
Marigold—is an early peach that has filled a niche between the Mikado and 
Oriole. In shape, color, 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. The tree is productive and hardy. 
Oriole—is in season about a week after Marigold and a week ahead of Golden 
Jubilee. The tree is vigorous and productive. The fruit is medium to large 
in size, roundish, yellow, very good in quality, and a freestone. Its flesh has 
a greenish tinge that impairs its appearance. Oriole is notable for its hardi- 
ness. 
Raritan Rose—is a white-fleshed freestone peach. The fruit is large and 
round-oval in shape. It is well washed with red color and attractive. The 
flesh is of good quality and considerably firmer than that of Cumberland 
which it is designed to replace. It ripens a few days before Golden Jubilee. 
The tree is productive and hardy. 
Redrose—is another white-fleshed peach. The fruit, which ripens about ten 
days after Raritan 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. This is a very productive variety.
