The indications are that Georgia’s
peach crop will be a very large one.
Mr. J. H. Hale, one of the largest
growers of the Fort Valley district,
thinks that it will amount to 2,000 car
loads. In the Fort Valley district there
are about 675,000 peach trees in bear
ing and in the Marshallville district
about 600,000. There are many other
localities in the state where the peach
is grown for market, but the Fort Val
ley and Marshallville orchards are the
leading ones. The principal peach
grown is the Elberta, which ripens
early.
