Among the blanches of business which

"STUMP THE WORLD" PEACH.
There is a general impression that this
very popular variety of peach, so exten
sively supplied to Philadelphia markets
from New Jersey, is a native ofthat .State.
But a correspondent of The Wettern Ag
riculturitt gives the following account of
its origin : "I see that some of our West
ern horticulturists credit the 'Slump the
World'peach to New Jersey. The fol
lowing is the correct history of its origin,
so far as known : A party of us had be
a deer hunt north of Coldwater,
Branch county, Michigan, when night
overtaking us, we stopped with James
Barney for Llio night. In the morning he
showed us a seedling peach tree. It
was standing in his meadow, between the
roots of a very large oak stump (over
three feet across). At the time It was
shown us (September 7) there were but
two peaches oil it ; he said there had been
about a dozen. In shape they closely re
sembled a large lemon ; in color they re
sembled a deep colored sweet orange,with
but very little furze upon them,
peaches were weighed in presence of nine
other persons besides myself, and the
weight put down at thirty-three ounces.
I cut all of the wood that would do for
buds,and sent, them to A. Frost & Co., of
Rochester, N. V., with a description.
They called it'the Stump Peach;' after
it bore they called it 'Stumpof the World.'
The original tree did not leaf out the
next spring."
