[APPLE Trees 



Have A Reputation Backed By Over 80 Years Production Experience 



^WILLIAMS' EARLY RED (3a) Among the earUest 

 to ripen and the largest of all early apples, a better name 

 for it is "Big Red Apple." Flesh is white, juicy and slight- 

 ly tart, tender and crisp. A very good one, like Transpar- 

 ent bears heavily on young trees. 



J EARLY MclNTOSH (4) Mcintosh Hybrid being al- 

 most red in color, very crisp. A thrifty grower and a reg- 

 ular bearer. Your opportunity to have the Mcintosh type 

 as a very early apple. Cash in on the popularity of the 

 Mcintosh by growing Early Mcintosh for your markets. 



STARR (4a) Om 



Can be picked over 



fine yellowish color; a great bearer and a valuable mar 



ket variety; comes into fruiting very young. 



>f the finest early apples grown, 

 long period of time; large and of a 



SUMMER RAMBO (8) Lar.ge, flat, streamed red and 

 yellow, very tender, juicy and fine flavored. Tree very 

 vigorous semi-spreading grower, hardy aind productive. 



SKYLINE SUPREME DELICIOUS (8a) 



See full description on page 20. See color illustration on 

 cover page. 



/ IMP. ALL RED MclNTOSH (8b) 



Earlier Coloring — Solid Red — Fancy Fruits 



A special selected strain of the famous Mcintosh apple, 

 coloring a soUd red without a trace of stripe. Without 

 question this is the finest type of Mcintosh that has come 

 to our attention and will say that if you are not getting 

 sufficient color on your present plantings of Mcintosh you 

 should make your new plantings of this Improved Type 

 this year. 



^ SUMMER CHAMPION (4b) a bright red apple rip- 

 ening in mid-summer with good size and fair quality. The 

 trees bear early and produce heavy crops. We feel this 

 fine looking apple should have a place in most plantings 

 of summer apples. It is good for local and distant markets. 



J RED GRAVENSTINE (5) This favorite of many years 

 as a summer apple of fine quality and shipping ability is 

 now offered in a Red Strain. Large well colored with 

 slightly yellow flesh, fine quality. Tree vigorous and pro- 

 ductive. Ripens somewhat irregular and should be picked 

 ' several times. 



-^ BEACON (5a) A highly colored, eariy apple with ex- 

 cellent eating and shipping qualities. Ripens just before 

 Wealthy and after Williams Early Red. The tree is vigor- 

 ous, healthy, and a heavy producer. Fruit hangs well and 

 can be picked over a long period of time to get the best 

 size and color. Averages 2/2 inch fruit vkdth normal crop. 



BLAZE (5b) A new Jonathan type apple ripening about 

 3/2 weeks earlier than Jonathan. Fruit is medium in size, 

 attractively blushed with red over golden yellow, and 

 somewhat less tart than Jonathan. Tree is upright, 

 spreading, vigorous, and productive. Blooms two days af- 

 ter Jonathan. 



V MILTON (6) Typical Mcintosh, coloring full red; very 

 good quality, about equal to Mcintosh, being same tex- 

 tured apple. Tree hardy and vigorous. Ripens three to 

 four weeks before Mcintosh or just before Wealthy. 



RED WARRIOR {6a) -p^g t^ee is vigorous, well form- 

 ed similar to Mcintosh and bears regularly. The fruit is 

 large, normally averaging better than three inches. The 

 skin is smooth and colored a brilliant red from stem to 

 calyx, and does not bruise easily. Its ripening season is 

 about with Wealthy or a little earlier. It is sub-acid in 

 flavor and is an excellent cooking apple. The apple is 

 shaped nearly like a Stayman. 



NIAGARA {6b) Ne^ 1962 introduction from New 

 York which provides a Mcintosh type apple about two 

 weeks earlier. In appearance, flavor, and tree habit, Ni- 

 agara is very similar to Mcintosh. Its desirable picking 

 season and similarity to Mcintosh should help its com- 

 mercial acceptance. 



WEALTHY (7) This beautiful, moderate sized, bril- 

 liant red apple is of fine quality; one of the best of its 

 season. It is a relatively good keeper, and owing to the 

 hardiness of the tree, its adaptability to cold climates and 

 early bearing habits, it can be profitable as a filler. 



The Famous Mcintosh Apple 



LOBO (9) About same season as the Mcintosh, larger 

 apple and colors a more full red than regular Mcintosh. 

 Extra good quality. Tree equal to Mcintosh. Comes 

 highly recommended to replace the regular Mcintosh for 

 the Middle Atlantic and Southern growers. 



^ CORTLAND (9a) 



Noted For Vigor and Productivity 



Cortland is an improved Mcintosh type. The fruits of 

 the two varieties are similar but those of Cortland are 

 more oblate, average larger, and are more uniform in 

 size; they have more color and the red is lighter and 

 brighter and the striping and splashes are laid on differ- 

 ently: the taste of Cortland can hardly be distinguished 

 from that of Mcintosh; the flesh is firmer but just as 

 juicy; the apples do not drop so readily and ship better. 



'WAYNE (9b) Result of a cross of N. W. Greening X 

 Red Spy introduced in 1962 by New York. It matures 

 with Cortland, is of large size, and colored a solid scarlet 

 blush. Flesh texture and flavor is very similar to Northern 

 Spy. Trees bear early am' annually, bloom late. Wayne 

 is a first class apple for sauce, frozen, and canned slice 

 packs. 



^SMOKE HOUSE (10) Comes into bearing moderately 

 young. It has a thin skin of yellow, striped with rather 

 a dull red and is very attractive. A favorite of the home 

 orchard.
