Proper Variety Selections Will Lead To Greater Profits 
MUTSU (1039) A new Yellow Delicious type apple 
from Japan that is highly resistant to russetting. Fruits 
are generally larger than Yellow Delicious and with 
coarser flesh. A possible replacement for Yellow Delicious 
because of its resistance to spray injury, late keeping 
qualities, vigorous growth of tree, and larger fruit. Pollen 
sterile — will not pollinate. 
POCOMOKE (1040) An excellent seedling found by 
Mr. Paul Sanguinetti of Yineland, N. J. Fruits are large, 
bright red in color, and smooth finished. Ripening date 
is near the end of Delicious and before Stayman. Our 
main interest in this new variety is its apparent drought 
resistance. The tree is vigorous, healthy, bears early, and 
annually. It seems to have the ability to size fruit well in 
the severest of drought conditions. Why not try some in 
our trouble areas?

EARLY RED STAYMAN (Neipling's) (1041) Colors 
100% all over the apple, from 10 to 20 days before 
the regular Stayman. Growers can pick the entire crop at 
one picking, if desired, and avoid losses. Cold storage tests 
show it will keep through to following May and come out 
with less scald, more flavor and more snap than any other 
type Stayman. 
NORTHERN SPY (1042) Large, roundish conical, 
often flattened, slightly ribbed; handsomely striped with 
red. Flavor rich, aromatic, mild sub-acid, fine. Keeps 
through winter and late into spring. 
TURLEY (1043) The trees resemble Stayman and are 
vigorous, rapid growers, productive and early bearing. 
The apples average large to very large; skin smooth, 
coloring a bright attractive red over the entire apple. 
Flesh is firm; quality is good but cannot be classed as a 
high dessert apple. The value of this apple lies in the fact 
hat it will not crack under normal conditions. 
COLORA RED YORK (1044) Earlier coloring, ear- 
lier picking, greater profits. The tree of Colora Red York 
has the same rugged characteristics as the old York 
Imperial, but will color 100% over the entire tree under 
most conditions. The Colora Red York can be picked 
from one to two weeks earlier than regular York. The 
entire crop can be picked at one time if desired. We do 
not know of any other type that will give the grower 
such attractive apples as the Colora Red York produces. 
EARLY RED STAYMAN (Neipling's) 
RED YORKING (1045) Another red sport of York 
Imperial that has merit. We offer this variety to our cus- 
tomers who have experienced more success with Red 
Yorking than Colora Red York because of site condi- 
tions, etc. 
MELROSE (1046) A new late-keeping winter apple 
that is a cross of Jonathan and Delicious. Tree blooms 
later than either parent. Fruits ripen just before Stay- 
man, keep well in cold storage until April, and so far 
have proven free of Jonathan spot. 
Fruits are well covered with an attractive carmine 
and have a live yellow undertone. Fruits larger than 
Jonathan — firm, crisp, juicy, not as tart as Jonathan or 
as sweet as Delicious. Excellent cooking and dessert 
quality. 
Tree bears moderately young, is upright, spreading, 
with good crotch angles, and develops to a reasonably 
large size.

BOUNTIFUL IMPROVED WINESAP 
OUBLE RED STAYMAN— 201 Type (1047) One 
of the newer introductions which has found favor 
with some growers. Trees and fruit characteristics 
similar to Blaxtayman except that it has a more brilliant 
color which lays on earlier and does not get the dark 
often found in some Stayman types. 
RUBY (1048) A promising late-keeping apple. Ruby 
has great eye appeal because of its striking, brilliant 
over-all carmine-red. The tree resembles Rome in 
growth, bears early and produces annually. Blooms 
about with Gallia and just after Delicious. Picking date 
is about with Rome or just before Stayman. The flavor 
is good, surpassing that of Rome Beauty. It is some- 
what juicy, neither sharp nor sweet but pleasingly mild; 
cooking does not detract from the flavor but seems 
to improve it ; whether baked or stewed, the flesh has 
tendency to hold its shape well. Fruits hold well in 
storage into April and May, being less susceptible to 
scald than Rome Beauty.
