Excerpt from A Study of the Cause of "Buttons" In the J. H. Hale Peach These defects were indeed serious in a variety which seemed so promising in the initial tests. Expressions of enthusiasm in the early writings, such as the million dollar peach and Elberta is doomed, soon gave way to adverse criticism when it became apparent that, because of low yield, this variety was not so profitable as it had promised even tho it did command a high price in the market. It is only fair to state, however, in support of the high estimate placed upon its merits after the first tests, that Culpepper and Caldwell found it to rank above all other commercial freestones grown in the East in retaining its firmness after picking and in holding together in the can ning process. The production of aborted anthers and buttons by this variety would not be so serious were it not for the fact that it also falls Short of some of the other varieties in hardiness of fruit bud and in vigor of growth. Because of these Shortcomings, J. H. Hale has not been set so extensively in commercial orchards in the last decade as previously. Nevertheless the unusually attractive appearance and carrying quality of the fruit still make it a favorite in the fancy trade, especially when distance shipments are involved.
