Crawford's Early. The true Crawford's Early, of which we have a large, guar- anteed stock, is a most valuable market Peach. It is a magnificent, yellow-fleshed fruit, of large size and highly colored. This variety was almost extinct, but it has been revived better than ever. Many growers have been raising a small, yellow- fleshed Peach and calling it Crawford's Early, by which they have done great injus- tice to this splendid fruit. Moderate grower and extremely productive. Freestone. Peninsula Yellow One of the best bearers in the yellow family ; originated in Wicomico county, Maryland. Large when not too full; colors high, and ripens in advance of Oldmixon. Is one of the most profitable Peaches grown ; best results are obtained by thinning. Mary's Choice. Not a very heavy bearer, but makes up in quality what it lacks in quantity. Large yellow freestone, with red cheek. A truly "fancy " Peach, especially for careful growers. Reeves' Favorite.
