 lYlVJIMnV-^i:! "^^'^^ jjnil Rome Beauty was introduced 

 by New York Experimental station in 1949. Tree resembles 

 that of the Rome Beauty in appearances and growth while 

 the fruits resemble the Jonathan and both appear to have no 

 major faults, tree being vigorous, upright-spreading and an- 

 nual bearer. Fruits large, Roundish-conic, resembling a well 

 colored Baldwin with brighter color as Jonathan. Apple 

 flesh is light yellow, crisp, juicy, mildly sub-acid, quality 

 good for dessert or processing. A winter apple ripening af- 

 ter Baldwin and before Rome it can be recommended for 

 planting throughout the Central and North Eastern fruit 

 areas. Can supply in 1 yr. trees only, during spring 19-)4. 



GALLIA (Red Rome) <18) 



It leads all other Red Rome Beauty type apples. It 

 can rightfully be called "One of America's Most Beau- 

 tiful Apples." Demand the Gallia Beauty when plant- 

 ing the Red Rome type apple. 



The Gallia Beauty originated in Ohio and is a typical 

 Rome tvpe tree, being thrifty, hardy and productive. The 

 fruit of^the Gallia Beauty colors a brilliant bright red. Avith- 

 out stripe and seems to be of higher quality than the regular 

 Rome Beauty and keeps exceptionally well in storage. The 

 Gallia Beauty will size up equal to the regular Rome but 

 many of the other inferior so-called Red Rome types Avill 

 not 'size up satisfactorily and again Ave urge you to plant 

 only the Genuine Gallia Beauty. We offer you the best and 

 charge you no more. 



vl APPLEGATE RED ROME <i8^) 



A RED BUD SPORT OF THE ROME BEAUTY 

 WE ARE PROUD TO PRESENT 



Uniform in size, crops every year, all over brilliant 

 red color, early bearing. 



The Applegate Red Rome comes from the orchards of 

 Leslie N. Applegate, Freehold, N. J., where we have observed 

 its behavior for many years. 



Size alone recommends this strain if nothing else were 

 considered because of the unvarying uniformity of its fruits 

 which will hardly ever run less than 3 inch minimum with 

 95% running to large grades, under conditions found in the 

 Applegate Orchards. 



Outside of size the color tones in the apple are an attrac- 

 tive red. 



We recommend the Applegate Rome for all locatn)ns m 

 which the Gallia Beauty does not size well. 



The tree is similar in growth and shape as regular Rome. 

 One year trees only.

round, mottled and striped in handsome shades of red : 

 flavor and quality way above the average; appearance and 

 size are its valuable points; always sells and always brings 

 good prices. 



\ i^DHTVTTMSTT (18c) Introduced fall 1951 by the Illi- 

 -^ V^IlrilNL/rlljlj nois Agriculture Experiment Sta- 



tion, resulting from a cross betAveen Rome beauty and Jona- 

 than. Tree is moderately vigorous loAv-spreading of the 

 Rome type, heavy annual bearer. Lateral branches form 

 wide angles, strongly reinforced. Foliage is not susceptible 

 to apple scab. The fruits are roundish oblate, symetrical, 

 stem short and fairly thin. The skin tough, moderately 

 thick, developing heavy wax when in storage. The flesh is 

 velloAvish-white, firm but fine-grained, crisp and juicy. The 

 flavor is mild sub-acid, aromatic, very good to excellent 

 quality as dessert and cooked. Does not spot as Jonathan. 

 Should do well in areas where Rome, Jonathan and Winesap 

 are commercial varieties. Hangs well to tree keeping until 

 March in storage. Can supply 1 yr. old trees only for spring 

 1954. 



One of the best of the long-keeping 

 Avinter vareties. Does well on al- 

 most any soil ; thrifty grower and fruits young ; bears reg- 

 ularly ; is of the Winesap type, good quality; coloring a 

 deep dull red almost all over ; flesh slightly yellow. Needs 

 cross pollenization.
