  THE 
  FULLFILLMENT 
  OF 
  THE 
  FRUIT 
  GROWER'S 
  WISH— 
  A 
  SOLID 
  BRIGHT 
  RED 
  APPLE 
  WITH 
  

   STAYMANS 
  QUALITY 
  AND 
  THE 
  SAME 
  HARDY 
  AND 
  PRODUCTIVE 
  

   CHARACTERISTICS 
  

  

  First 
  offered 
  by 
  the 
  Bountiful 
  Ridge 
  Nurseries 
  in 
  the 
  Spring 
  of 
  1930, 
  and 
  we 
  consider 
  it 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  most 
  val- 
  

   uable 
  apples 
  of 
  recent 
  introduction 
  to 
  the 
  Eastern 
  fruit 
  grower. 
  See 
  inside 
  front 
  cover 
  page 
  for 
  color 
  illustration. 
  

  

  The 
  fruit 
  is 
  equally 
  as 
  large 
  or 
  larger 
  than 
  the 
  regular 
  Staymans. 
  The 
  tree 
  is 
  equally 
  as 
  thrifty 
  as 
  the 
  old 
  

   Staymans. 
  The 
  apple 
  has 
  a 
  slightly 
  tougher 
  skin, 
  which 
  tends 
  to 
  make 
  it 
  keep 
  better 
  in 
  storage 
  and 
  carry 
  bet- 
  

   ter 
  to 
  the 
  markets. 
  The 
  apple 
  will 
  not 
  scald 
  in 
  storage 
  as 
  readily 
  because 
  of 
  its 
  clear 
  bright 
  red 
  color 
  without 
  any 
  

   stripe. 
  The 
  apple 
  has 
  the 
  same 
  shape 
  as 
  the 
  old 
  type 
  of 
  Staymans 
  Winesap. 
  Because 
  of 
  its 
  solid 
  red 
  color 
  you 
  

   can 
  pick 
  this 
  apple 
  earlier 
  if 
  desired 
  and 
  seek 
  the 
  export 
  markets 
  with 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  best 
  quality 
  apples 
  now 
  in 
  cul- 
  

   tivation. 
  Because 
  of 
  its 
  solid 
  red 
  color 
  you 
  can 
  harvest 
  almost 
  100% 
  extra 
  fancy 
  grade 
  and 
  fancy 
  grade 
  apples. 
  

   Can 
  you 
  as 
  a 
  planter 
  disregard 
  these 
  natural 
  advantages 
  which 
  nature 
  has 
  contributed 
  to 
  our 
  progressive 
  age? 
  

   We 
  give 
  a 
  brief 
  history 
  of 
  this 
  wonderful 
  apple. 
  

  

  The 
  management 
  of 
  the 
  Bountiful 
  Ridge 
  Nurseries 
  

   are 
  proud 
  of 
  the 
  privilege 
  to 
  offer 
  their 
  patrons 
  another 
  

   Blood 
  Red 
  apple 
  as 
  a 
  companion 
  to 
  the 
  Blood 
  Red 
  De- 
  

   licious. 
  This 
  apple 
  was 
  found 
  among 
  a 
  planting 
  of 
  75 
  

   Staymans 
  Winesap 
  trees 
  planted 
  in 
  1906. 
  Prom 
  the 
  

   start 
  it 
  has 
  produced 
  apples 
  which 
  were 
  in 
  sharp 
  con- 
  

   trast 
  with 
  apples 
  from 
  the 
  other 
  STAYMANS 
  WINESAP 
  

   trees. 
  The 
  tree 
  was 
  a 
  typical 
  STAYMANS 
  WINESAP 
  

   tree 
  in 
  every 
  way, 
  having 
  the 
  same 
  type 
  of 
  foliage 
  and 
  

   habits 
  of 
  growth, 
  but 
  the 
  fruit 
  was 
  a 
  SOLID 
  BLOOD 
  

   RED, 
  without 
  a 
  trace 
  of 
  stripe, 
  over 
  the 
  entire 
  tree. 
  It 
  

   was 
  also 
  noticed 
  that 
  it 
  got 
  this 
  very 
  attractive 
  color 
  

   at 
  least 
  ten 
  days 
  before 
  the 
  other 
  Staymans 
  Winesaps 
  

   in 
  the 
  same 
  orchard 
  began 
  to 
  color 
  any 
  noticeable 
  

   amount, 
  even 
  though 
  the 
  fruit 
  came 
  to 
  maturity 
  at 
  ap- 
  

   proximately 
  the 
  same 
  time. 
  

  

  Realizing 
  the 
  advantages 
  of 
  this 
  Blood 
  Red 
  color 
  of 
  

   the 
  apple 
  and 
  still 
  retaining 
  the 
  full 
  quality 
  of 
  the 
  old 
  

   Staymans, 
  tests 
  were 
  made 
  to 
  be 
  sure 
  the 
  tree 
  would 
  

   reproduce 
  true 
  to 
  type. 
  We 
  top-worked 
  some 
  trees 
  in 
  

  

  the 
  orchard 
  and 
  set 
  buds 
  in 
  the 
  nursery 
  for 
  three 
  years, 
  

   taking 
  buds 
  from 
  grafts 
  set 
  the 
  first 
  year 
  from 
  the 
  orig- 
  

   inal 
  tree 
  and 
  the 
  folloAving 
  year 
  we 
  took 
  buds 
  and 
  

   grafts 
  from 
  these 
  and 
  worked 
  them 
  on 
  other 
  trees, 
  

   bringing 
  them 
  to 
  fruiting 
  as 
  soon 
  as 
  possible. 
  Our 
  

   every 
  hope 
  was 
  fulfilled 
  when 
  these 
  top-worked 
  trees 
  

   came 
  into 
  fruiting 
  and 
  proved 
  thac 
  the 
  full 
  red 
  color 
  of 
  

   the 
  fruit 
  would 
  carry 
  through 
  to 
  coming 
  generations 
  of 
  

   trees 
  and 
  give 
  to 
  the 
  fruit-growing 
  world 
  a 
  BLOOD 
  

   RED 
  STAYMANS 
  WINESAP 
  APPLE. 
  This 
  will 
  mean 
  

   millions 
  of 
  dollars 
  in 
  time 
  to 
  come 
  to 
  the 
  fruit 
  grower, 
  

   for 
  with 
  its 
  BLOOD 
  RED 
  COLOR 
  the 
  apple 
  brought 
  

   with 
  it 
  a 
  thicker 
  and 
  tougher 
  skin. 
  

  

  Continued 
  tests 
  have 
  proven 
  that 
  the 
  Blaxtayman 
  col- 
  

   ors 
  a 
  beautiful 
  solid 
  RED 
  all 
  over 
  without 
  a 
  trace 
  of 
  a 
  

   stripe. 
  That 
  it 
  is 
  crisp 
  and 
  juicy 
  and 
  that 
  it 
  has 
  the 
  

   same 
  excellent 
  flavor 
  as 
  the 
  Staymans 
  Winesap. 
  That 
  

   the 
  Blaxtayman 
  has 
  a 
  firmer 
  texture 
  and 
  a 
  thicker 
  skin 
  

   than 
  the 
  regular 
  Staymans, 
  which 
  enables 
  the 
  grower 
  

   to 
  pick 
  it 
  earlier 
  and 
  keep 
  it 
  longer. 
  It 
  has 
  everything 
  

   to 
  recommend 
  it. 
  

  

  A 
  Mcintosh 
  Type 
  Apple 
  for 
  the 
  Entire 
  Year 
  

  

  Can 
  be 
  had 
  by 
  selecting 
  from 
  these 
  varieties 
  

  

  An 
  example 
  of 
  how 
  up-to-date 
  our

  are. 
  We 
  strive 
  to

  McINTOSH 
  RED 
  — 
  We 
  have 
  improved 
  our 
  strain 
  of 
  

   Mcintosh 
  through 
  bud 
  selection 
  and 
  are 
  able 
  to 
  offer 
  

   our 
  patrons 
  trees 
  which 
  have 
  reproduced 
  a 
  solid 
  red 
  

   Mcintosh 
  type 
  of 
  fruit. 
  Other 
  Nurseries 
  are 
  offering 
  

   these 
  at 
  advanced 
  prices. 
  We 
  made 
  our 
  bud 
  selections 
  

   more 
  than 
  six 
  years 
  ago 
  and 
  are 
  pleased 
  to 
  give 
  our 
  

   patrons 
  the 
  advantage 
  of 
  this 
  improved 
  Mcintosh

   out 
  additional

  CORTLAND 
  — 
  A 
  cross 
  between 
  Ben 
  Davis 
  and 
  Mcin- 
  

   tosh, 
  ripening 
  two 
  to 
  four 
  weeks 
  later 
  than 
  Mcintosh. 
  

   About 
  equal 
  in 
  size, 
  colors 
  well, 
  same 
  textured 
  fruit, 
  

   but 
  not 
  quite 
  as 
  good 
  quality. 
  It's 
  main 
  quality 
  is 
  that 
  

   it 
  hangs 
  to 
  the 
  tree 
  'till 
  it 
  is 
  well 
  colored 
  and 
  will 
  sell 
  

   as 
  Mcintosh 
  on 
  the 
  markets. 
  

  

  MACOUN 
  — 
  Very 
  highly 
  colored,, 
  having 
  no 
  stripe. 
  

   Same 
  quality 
  as 
  Mcintosh, 
  same 
  textured 
  fruit, 
  hangs 
  to 
  

   the 
  tree 
  better 
  than 
  Mcintosh, 
  and 
  ripens 
  two 
  to 
  three 
  

   weeks 
  after 
  Cortland 
  Tree 
  about 
  equal 
  to 
  Mcintosh, 
  

   a 
  regular 
  bearer, 
  and 
  strongly 
  recommended 
  to 
  length- 
  

   en 
  the 
  Mcintosh 
  season 
  and 
  give 
  the 
  Middle 
  Atlantic 
  

   and 
  Southern 
  growers 
  a 
  Mcintosh 
  type 
  fruit 
  they 
  can 
  

   grow 
  successfully. 
  For 
  the 
  first 
  time 
  since 
  listing 
  the 
  

   Macoun 
  variety 
  we 
  believe 
  we 
  have 
  an 
  ample 
  supply 
  of 
  

   trees 
  of 
  this 
  variety. 
  No 
  grower 
  of 
  the 
  Mcintosh 
  type 
  

   of 
  fruit 
  can 
  ignore 
  the 
  merits

  The 
  advantages 
  of 
  either 
  growing 
  highly 
  colored 
  fruit 
  or 
  growing 
  green 
  colored 
  apples 
  in 
  the 
  past 
  few 
  years 
  

   has 
  been 
  clearly 
  demonstrated 
  to 
  all 
  growers, 
  and 
  it 
  is 
  with 
  this 
  in 
  mind 
  we 
  want 
  to 
  call 
  your 
  attention 
  to 
  the 
  

   above 
  sports 
  of 
  the 
  Rome 
  Beauty 
  Apple 
  Possibly 
  where 
  the 
  Rome 
  Beauty 
  thrives 
  no 
  other 
  apple 
  brings 
  as 
  much 
  

   return 
  to 
  the 
  grower 
  as 
  this 
  variety 
  of 
  apple 
  and 
  with 
  increased 
  color 
  the 
  return 
  would 
  be 
  much 
  greater. 
  There 
  

   have 
  been 
  many 
  variations 
  of 
  the 
  Rome 
  Beauty 
  in 
  color 
  and 
  quality, 
  but 
  few 
  of 
  them 
  have 
  been 
  worth 
  while. 
  The 
  

   Gallia 
  Beauty 
  Red 
  Rome, 
  Ohio 
  Red 
  Rome 
  and 
  Dark 
  Red 
  Rome 
  seem 
  to 
  be 
  the 
  only 
  ones 
  to 
  stand 
  the 
  test. 
  We 
  

   mean 
  by 
  this 
  they 
  have 
  retained 
  the 
  size 
  and 
  texture 
  of 
  the 
  old 
  Rome, 
  which 
  is 
  one 
  of 
  its 
  valuable 
  assets, 
  at 
  the 
  

   same 
  time, 
  having 
  the 
  same 
  vigorous 
  and 
  productive 
  tree. 
  There 
  is 
  little 
  difference 
  in 
  the 
  Gallia 
  Beauty 
  and 
  the 
  

   genuine 
  Ohio 
  Red 
  Rome, 
  possibly 
  the 
  Gallia 
  Beauty 
  being 
  slightly 
  larger 
  in 
  size. 
  Both 
  are 
  about 
  equal 
  in 
  color, 
  

   being 
  a 
  clear 
  bright 
  red, 
  without 
  the 
  usual 
  Rome 
  Beauty 
  stripe. 
  The 
  trees 
  bear 
  unusually 
  young, 
  and 
  every 
  plant- 
  

   erwill 
  find 
  it 
  superior 
  to 
  the 
  regular 
  Rome 
  Beauty. 
  The 
  Dark 
  Red 
  Rome 
  should 
  be 
  planted 
  on 
  very 
  light 
  soil 
  or 
  

   on 
  high, 
  dry 
  elevation, 
  or 
  else 
  it 
  will 
  get 
  too 
  dark 
  for 
  the 
  Eastern 
  grower. 
  It 
  is 
  well 
  adapted 
  to 
  the 
  far 
  Western 
  

   area. 
  We 
  have 
  received 
  the 
  grafts 
  for 
  our 
  trees 
  from 
  the 
  original 
  trees 
  in 
  Ohio, 
  and 
  we 
  know 
  they 
  are 
  true-to- 
  

   name, 
  and 
  we 
  can 
  recommend 
  these 
  improved 
  Rome 
  Beauty 
  varieties 
  to 
  all 
  our 
  patrons 
  where 
  they 
  want 
  more 
  col- 
  

   or 
  on 
  the 
  Rome 
  Beauty 
  type 
  of 
  apple 
  These 
  Red 
  Rome 
  sports 
  are 
  fruiting 
  quite 
  generally 
  throughout 
  the 
  East 
  

   now 
  and 
  are 
  proving 
  very 
  satisfactory. 
  We 
  are 
  proud 
  of 
  the 
  fact 
  that 
  we 
  were 
  the 
  first
