The Nation's Choice for Fine Fruit Trees of Proven Merit 
SKYLINE SUPREME RED DELICIOUS (1020) 
/ 
/ Early Coloring - Early Ripening 
SKYLINE SUPREME is a true sport Starking that is 
particularly outstanding because of its early coloring 
and early ripening habits. Fruits of Skyline Supreme 
reach full color and maturity several weeks earlier 
than Richared and Starking, and many days earlier than 
most recently introduced early coloring types. They 
color equally well in all areas of the tree. The well 
colored, completely blush red fruits are ready to pick 
at the same time as the red sports of Mcintosh. 
Skyline Supreme exhibits a strong habit toward the 
sheep-nosed condition prevalent among western grown 
Delicious. Trees are vigorous, bear young, and set large 
crops of large, highly colored fruits. Blossoms are simi- 
lar to other types of Red Delicious and appear at the 
same time. Pollination is needed for best results. 
Trees of Skyline Supreme are normally regular size. 
See pages 28 and 29 for controlled size trees. 
IMP. ALL RED MclNTOSH (1021) Our own special 
selected strain of the famous Mcintosh apple. Known in 
some areas as Imperial Mcintosh, this fine apple brings 
the grower excellent blush-red color, large size, and con- 
sistent crops. This is the finest red strain of Mcintosh we 
,have ever seen. 
LOBO (1022) About same season as Mcintosh, with a 
larger apple that colors a more full red than regular 
Mcintosh. Extra good quality. Tree equal to Mcintosh. 
Comes highly recommended to replace the regular 
Mcintosh for Middle Atlantic and southern growers. 
CORTLAND (1023) 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 differently. 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. 
IMP. ALL RED JONATHAN (1024) This is a special 
bud-selected strain of the famous Jonathan apple. We 
have tested it in every section of the country, in trial 
plots and commercial orchards, for more than twenty 
years and have found it superior in most all cases. 
Highly colored Jonathan apples bring the fancy prices. 
Use this fine, proven red strain of Jonathan for replant- 
ing and new planting work. We are sure it will satisfy 
your needs.

RIMES GOLDEN (1025) An apple of the highest 
quality. It is one of the fancy dessert apples and ranks 
with Delicious and Jonathan on the market. Medium to 
large, bright yellow; flesh fine grained, juicy, with a very 
pleasing spicy flavor. The tree is hardy, grows upright 
and is quite disease resistant. Highly recommended and 
widely planted to pollinate self-sterile varieties. 
IDARED (1026) A cross between Wagner and Jonathan. 
Its season is with or a little later than Jonathan. Fruits 
are medium to large. Stems medium long, slender; cavity 
broad, deep; calyx small, basin shallow. Strikingly beau- 
tiful bright red color. Skin smooth, medium thick, waxen; 
dots sparse, inconspicuous ; rich yellow under-color. 
Fruits hold form as well as Rome when baking. Creamy 
white, smooth-textured flesh. Tree form resembles 
Jonathan, more upright, spreading, seems rather resistant 
^to/blight. A regular bearer. 
SPARTAN (1027) A very attractive Mcintosh type 
ripening about a week later than Mcintosh. Flesh is 
firm and dessert quality is good. Storage life is weeks 
longer than Mcintosh. We recommend it for trial, where 
a Mcintosh type that can be picked later and stored 
longer is desired. Trees available on semi-dwarf rootstock 
,only. 
TWENTY OUNCE (1028) Fruit exceptionally large, 
juicy and crisp, sub-acid; color green, with slight blush 
and red stripe. Tree thrifty and very productive, gener- 
' ally recognized as our best summer baking apple. 
OPALESCENT (1029) Very large, brilliant dark red 
all over. Tree bears when young; very prolific. Average 
quality. Its size and beauty recommend it for planting 
in central and northern areas. 
SHENANDOAH-VPI 2 (1057) This new variety is a 
seedling of Winesap crossed with opalescent which ripens 
about 10 days before Delicious. The fruits have color re- 
sembling Winesap, are smooth and symmetrical. The flesh 
is firm, crisp, juicy, and with good flavor. Primarily a pro- 
cessing apple, it is also exceptable for fresh use. Trees are 
^y/gorous, produce many spurs, and size their crop well. 
PACIFIC GOLD (1030) Pacific Gold originated as a 
chance seedling in southwest Oregon and was introduced 
in the late 40's by J. E. Miller of California. The tree 
is moderate in size, with well-spaced, strong, wide- 
angled limbs. It bears when young and yields heavy 
crops annually. The fruit of Pacific Gold is large, with 
crisp, tender flesh, quite sweet, and of fine dessert 
quality. The skin is yellow, looking much like Yellow 
Delicious and Mutsu. The season is late fall or early 
winter. Pacific Gold keeps well in storage and should 
be tried in areas where russetting is a problem with 
Yellow Delicious.
