NORTHWESTERN GREENING (iOd) A fine, large, 
green cooking apple that is being demanded by growers 
and processors once again. Trees are vigorous and quite 
hardy. The fruits are of good flavor, very smooth and 
attractive. This fine apple matures just before Yellow 
Delicious but can be picked over a long period of time 
with good results. 
YELLOW DELICIOUS (11 ) This apple is famous for 
its unique quality, embracing a combination of flavors 
which is hard to equal. This, combined with the fine, 
firm-textured flesh of the apple and the beautiful golden 
yellow skin, at once attracts the eye of the consuming 
public. The tree, while not a large growing type, is 
thrifty and extremely productive, coming into fruiting 
and giving an abundant crop while very young.

- NUGGET i: 
SPUR TYPE YELLOW DELICIOUS (11a) 
A new spur-type Yellow Delicious apple. Fruits are 
borne in profusion all over the trees at a young age. 
Fruits are similar in every way to Yellow Delicious. We 
have found no evidence that Nugget is any more or less 
susceptible to russetting than regular Yellow Delicious. 
Trees of Nugget are normally semi-dwarf — about one- 
half the size of regular trees. They are hardy, very 
productive, and easy to manage. Pollen is good and they 
may be interplanted with SkySpur Red Delicious for 
pollinating purposes. 
Trees of Nugget are on standard rootstocks this year. 
This fine new spur-type Yellow Delicious will allow 
you to make extensive plantings of well anchored trees 
that will be small at maturity. See special Price List 
for one year trees on standard rootstock onlv.

SUNGOLD (lib) A russet-free apple resembling Yel- 
low Del. found in New Jersey. Sungold is much the same 
quality, appearance, and shape as Yellow Delicious. 
Fruits ripen at the same time as Yellow Delicious and 
must be handled in the same way. Trees are vigorous, 
bear young, and are more spurred than Yellow Deli- 
cious. -Sungold is a good pollinator. 
MACOUN (11c) Very highly colored, having no 
stripe. Same quality as Mcintosh, same textured fruit, 
hangs to the tree better than Mcintosh and ripens one 
to two weeks after Cortland. Tree about equal to 
Mcintosh, a regular bearer, and strongly recommended 
to lengthen the Mcintosh season. 
RICH 
MCHARED DELICIOUS (lid) The best of the red 
sports of Delicious. It has superb quality, beautiful 
bright red color without stripe, and excellent shape, 
Trees are hardy, vigorous, and produce large annual 
crops. Fruits of Richared are large, very handsome, and 
good. They ripen all over the tree weeks earlier than 
regular Delicious. Richared is your best bet for eleva- 
tions over 100 feet. An excellent storage apple, too. 
DOU 
NUGGET 
)OUBLE RED DELICIOUS (lie) Another sport of 
Delicious that ripens with a stripe. It is your best bet 
for an early coloring Delicious at low elevations. When 
planted in areas over 100 feet, it tends to get too dark 
and is not as handsome as Richared. It bears young and 
produces large crops of fine, beautiful Delicious apples. 
Very similar to Starking. 
Dear Sirs: 
They are the finest looking trees I have ever received, 
and I am so pleased to get them before any danger of 
frost damage came up. 
Thank you so very much for all the trouble you have 
taken about my order. I can certainly recommend your 
nursery stock and service to anyone, and will order 
any trees I need in the future from you.
