SELECT LIST OF PEACHES. The following is a select list of Peaches, ripening from May 15 to November, according to location and climate, and we do not hesitate to say the collection can- not be surpassed, if equalled, in the Southern or border States. Varieties are arranged below in order of ripening as near as possible for Middle North Carolina. In South Carolina and Georgia they will ripen from six to ten days earlier; in Ala- bama and Mississippi from ten days to two weeks or more earlier. North of North Carolina they ripen later; in Virginia from four days to a week later; ten days to three weeks later in Maryland and Delaware; about five weeks later in Northern New Jersey, and five to six weeks later in New York State. Note the time of ripen- ing of certain varieties in your section; compare same with our Catalogue and you can then tell the difference in time of ripening at the different places.
