Hieley (Early Bell)— This seedling of Bell of
Georgia, one of the best of all peaches of North China
type, the kind that are among our most hardy, is much
like its parent in size, color and beauty, having the
same vigor of tree and hardiness of fruit buds, but
riiiens its fruit nearly a mouth earlier, thus giving us
a large,. rich, creamy white peach, with rich blush on
sunny side, at a season when in former years we had
only small semi-cling varieties of poor quality. Early
Bell is aslarge as Stump, as beautiful as Old Mixon, of
fine quality and a good shipper. July 15th.
Triumph — Very early yellow freestone peach, ripen-
ing with Alexander. Blooms late, has large flowers,
is a sure and abundant bearer and makes a very strong
growth. The fruit is small with a very small pit, and
is indeed beautiful. Surface is yellow, nearly covered
with red and dark crimson in the sun. Flesh bright
yellow, free when fully ripe and of excellent flavor.
Admiral Dewey — It is a perfect freestone; ripens
with the Triumph ; flesh is yellow , of uniform texture
and color to pit. Has better form and brighter color
on the surface ; is equally hardy and productive. The
tree is a strong symmetrical grower, and as near per-
fection as we can obtain in a single variety. Origina-
