BLAXTAYMAN 



(Trade Mark Registered U. S. Patent OHice) 



The Blaxtayman Surpasses Most Other Improved 



Strains of The Stayman. 



Each Succeeding Year Brings Added Praise For The 



Blaxtayman. 



Its Fruiting Record Has Established The Blaxtayman 



Generally As One of Our Good Commercial 



Apples. 



The BLAXTAYMAN was introduced to tlie Eastern Fruit 

 growers, spring of 1930. In the BLAXTAYMAN we have 

 every characteristic of the famous Stayman apple with the 

 exception that THE FRUIT COLORS A BEAUTIFUL, SOLID 

 RED. The fruit is equally as large or larger than the regu- 

 lar Stayman. The trees are equally as thrifty as the regu- 

 lar Stayman. The apple has a SLIGHTLY TOUGHER 

 SKIN WHICH TENDS TO MAKE IT KEEP BETTER IN 

 STORAGE AND CARRY BETTER TO THE MARKETS. 

 THE APPLE HAS THE SAME SHAPE AS THE OLD 

 STAYMAN. THE FLESH IS FINER TEXTURE AND 



MORE MILD IN FLAVOR WHEN GROWN AT LOWER 

 ELEVATIONS THAN THE OLD STAYMAN. Because of 

 the Earlier Coloring and Solid Red Color the grower can 

 pick the fruit earlier if desired. The BLAXTAYMAN will 

 not get a dark and unattractive color if allowed to remain 

 on the tree but instead the apples become more brilliant 

 and beautiful. Prices on page 17.
