OUR TREES ARE AMERICA'S NO. 1 VALUE SHIPPERS LATE RED d^a) (Bountiful Strain) Best of the Hale type Shippers Late Red. A Large, productive, handsome peach recommended to follow Elberta. Brings high prices. A large, very highly colored attractive red, yelloAv fleshed freestone and good quality peach of distinct Hale type. Ripens just after Elberta and J. H. Hale. A good shipping peach, extremely productive. Very hardy and its beauty and size enables it to bring top prices on the markets. This splendid variety should be planted more extensively as we know of no variety we can recommend more highly for a peach to follow the Elberta. Much confusion exists regarding the various strains of this A^ariety. We are growing the true type as determined by comparison with fruit in U. S. D. A. test orchards, which is known as the Hale type. NOTE: SHirPEBS RED—Trees avail- able on Nematode Resistant Root Stock. $.10 extra per tree. See Page 20. GAGE ELBERTA (i3b) MR. PLANTER: Don't pass up Gage, it has everything a peach should have—size, quality and beauty. A Disease Resistant Bud Sport of the Famous Elberta Peach, Which We Recom- mend Highly. Recommended for resistance to bacterium pruni. The tree grows as thrifty as the Elberta and looks much like the old time Elberta. Gage El- berta blooms from two to four days after Elberta and apparently has a very strong blossom setting a crop of fruit under unfavorable conditions. The fruit is so near like the Elberta that only an expert can distinguish the difference. Ripens two to three days later than Elberta. This variety is proving well adapted to Southern con- ditions in the trial planting at Columbia and Clemson, South Carolina and is to be preferred over the Elberta in many respects.
