64 FRUIT FARMING 



bushels in the short year 1909, and marketed them 

 from the tree direct at a good price ; large prices 

 have been made at orchard auctions. October — 

 December. 



25. Bismarck — Tree compact and pendulous. This 

 never fails to crop heavily, and the large fruits sell 

 equally well from the tree or stored. Best in a warm 

 soil in the South ; it does not colour well in the 

 Midlands. November, keeping till January. 



26. Norfolk Beauty — Growth free and branching, a 

 valuable Apple, bearing freely in many parts, of 

 splendid cooking quality, fruits globular, very large, 

 pale yellow, very fine, keeping well until Christmas ; 

 tree requires to be well pruned as it makes much 

 thin wood. 



27. Royal Jubilee — Introduced by my firm, of a rich 

 golden yellow, keeping till January, or may be sold 

 from the tree direct; a great bearer; tree compact, 

 medium size ; blossoms late, and so can be planted 

 in districts liable to late frosts ; while by its late 

 leafage it escapes the winter moth. 



28. Tower of Glamis — Tree spreading; a valuable 

 orchard kind ; fruit large and heavy ; a good regular 

 bearer when 10 years old; vigorous. November — 

 January. 



29. Alfriston — Tree compact and hardy in growth, 

 good as orchard or bush tree ; stores well ; fruit large. 

 January. 



30. Lane's Prince Albert — Wonderful for crop and 

 beauty, keeping well till March; best as a plantation 

 tree. Tlie finest large late Apple for Dwarf trees.
