This is to certify that all of the one to three year 

 old budded apple trees, sweet cherry, one year pear 

 and plum varieties propagated and now growing in 

 the nurseries of Bountiful Ridge Nurseries, Princess 

 Anne, Maryland, have been examined by the Massa- 

 chusetts True-to-Name Inspection Service. To the best 

 of our knowledge, these trees are true-to-name as they 

 now stand in the nursery row.

YELLOW TRANSPARENT «'«) 



HOIiDS A I.ONG RECORD AS 



OUR MOST WIDELY PLANTED 



EARLY C03IMERCIAL APPLE 



Tree grows upright, hardy, early bearer. Fruit good 

 size, skin clear white to pale yellow in color. Flavor very 

 good. Is an excellent cooking apple known to the house- 

 wife everywhere. Ripens early July. 



THE NEW "CLOSE" APPLE <2b) 



A PRODUCT OF THE U.S.D.A. BUREAU OF PLANT 

 INDUSTRY DEVELOPED BY PROF. C. P. CLOSE 



This variety tested as U. S. D. A. No. 57, ripens with or 

 slightly ahead of the Yellow Transparent. It appears to 

 adapt itself over a wide growing area. The fruit is med- 

 ium to large size, averaging 2i/^" ; fair to good quality, 

 suitable for both dessert and cooking. The fruit develops 

 a bright attractive color when full ripe but when groAvn 

 for the large commercial markets would have to be picked 

 with 1/4 to % color. It seems to stand high summer tem- 

 peratures well. The tree is vigorous, productive, annual 

 bearer and comes into fruiting while the trees are young. 

 This variety has promise as an EARLY RED APPLE 

 ADAPTED TO BOTH HOME AND COMMERCIAL OR- 

 CHARD PLANTINGS. 



NOTE 



The ripening order of varieties is designated by brack- 

 eted number after the name. Varieties overlapping in 

 ripening season are indicated by subletter. Example: 

 Mcintosh and Cortland are same season and are desig- 

 nated as by numbers 9a and 9b. We are endeavoring to 

 give the ripening order and not the picking order as 

 this will vary greatly according to the grower and 

 Avhere they are marketed. Many of our green apples 

 are picked early for cooking purposes. Other liighly 

 colored red apples are marketed long before actual rip- 

 ening time and again soil, fertilization and climatic 

 conditions will cause a variation in ripening season. 

 We trust this listing will be helpful to you. We have 

 endeavored to make it as authentic as possible.
