Summerrose—is a large, attractive, white-fleshed freestone of high quality. 
It is in season about with Halehaven. The tree is vigorous and productive. 
Sunhigh—is a large, highly-colored, bright, firm, smooth peach which ripens 
a few days before Halehaven. It is a freestone with attractive yellow flesh 
and its quality ranks among the best of the new peaches recommended for 
trial in New York. It is as hardy as Elberta. 
Triogem—is a yellow freestone peach, oval in shape and ripens about two days 
after Golden Jubilee or three weeks before Elberta. The fruit is highly 
colored, has short pubescence and is very attractive. The flesh is firm and 
the variety stands handling much better than Golden Jubilee in addition to 
having much better quality. The trees are productive and require thorough 
thinning. Triogem is very good for freezing. 
The following varieties are introductions from U. S. D. A. 
Coronet—is a very attractive, yellow-fleshed, early peach. The quality is ex- 
ceptionally good for its season which is four and one-half weeks before 
Elberta. This new variety appears to be vigorous and productive. 
Dixired—is a highly colored early peach which ripens in the season of Mikado 
or about five weeks before Elberta. It is very firm for such an early peach 
and the quality is good. It is a clingstone. The tree is vigorous and pro- 
ductive. 
Southland—is a yellow-fleshed freestone of good quality, although the flesh 
tends to be slightly coarse. It ripens just before Halehaven. 
The three varieties of peaches described below originated at the Horticultural 
Experiment Station, Vineland, Ontario, Canada. 
Erlyvee—is a very early yellow-fleshed peach from the Vineland Station, 
obtained from a seed of an open-pollinated Golden Jubilee. It ripens about 
a week earlier than Mikado and is a freestone when dead ripe. The quality 
is good for such an early peach. Its main fault is that its skin is very tender 
and requires careful handling. 
Valiant—is a seedling of Elberta. The fruit is large, roundish oblate, yellow 
blushed with red, with firm juicy flesh of very good quality; a freestone. The 
trees are productive. It is in season by the first of September or about two 
weeks ahead of Elberta. Noteworthy because of earliness and rich delectable 
flavor. 
Veteran—is large, round, yellow fleshed, usually a freestone and far superior 
to Elberta in quality. The fruit freezes well. Since it ripens a few days later 
than Valiant, it makes a desirable sort to follow that variety. It is a pro- 
ductive variety and hardy in bud. 
APRICOTS 
It is recommended that at least two varieties be planted closely in order 
to induce better fruitfulness.
