Crawfords Early has long held its place at the head of the list of peaches both for home useand for market. Its beautiful golden color, its large size, its free stone and rich flavor all unitein giving it a just claim to this position. Its buds are a little more tender than those of someother varieties, and, consequently, many growers hesitate to plant it, but where high cultivationand plenty of fertilizer is given, fine crops of luscious fruit have resulted.
