THE COUNTRY HOME [CHAPTER 
apples, to be as ornamental for the lawn as any tree 
that the world affords. I would select for early 
varieties Paul’s Imperial and Whitney, and for late - 
varieties Dartmouth and Hyslop. In another 
chapter I have something to say about the use of 
crab-apple trees for windbreaks. They not only 
serve admirably when used for this purpose, but 
they have the additional value of furnishing a large 
amount of fruit for market and for cider, and for a 
much favored jelly. 
I shall venture to add a list of apples for a strictly 
Northern section, beyond the apple belt. You will 
be safe in selecting Tetofsky, Wolf River, Pewau- 
kee, Gideon, Northwestern Greening, Yellow 
Transparent, Wealthy, Longfield, Fameuse, and 
Duchess of Oldenburg. These will prove to be in 
the main entirely hardy in the Dakotas, Wyoming, 
and Montana. For a section below the regular 
apple belt, a good list may be made out as follows: 
Yellow Transparent, Duchess of Oldenburg, 
Early Joe, Primate, Golden Sweet, Early Straw- 
berry, Fall Wine, Fall Pippin, Gravenstein, Jacob’s 
Sweet, Jonathan, Northern Spy, Porter, Shiawassie 
Beauty, Grimes Golden, White Pippin, Stark. 
York Imperial, Stayman’s Winesap, and Mam-
