This year we are out to get a bigger share of the apple mar- 

 ket because this year we think we will have a bigger crop. 



This year we think we can go further under the banner of 

 "This is Mcintosh Country." 



This year we have something new for retail stores, and we in- 

 tend to see most of them. 



This year we have new advertising. 



This year we have a premium offer. 



So, help us to help you. The next time someone asks you 



where you are from, tell them Mister "I'm from Mcintosh Country 



You'll be surprised how many consumers recognize you.

 will still be available through farmer cooperatives and the Wild-
