A PROMISING LATE KEEPING APPLE 



A recent introduction of the Ohio Experimental Station 

 resulting from a cross between Gallia Beauty and Starking. 

 Ruby, as its name implies, has great eye appeal because of 

 its strikingly brilliant overall carmine red resembling some- 

 what a well colored Gallia Beauty. The tree resembles Rome 

 in growth, bears early and tends to produce annually, blooms 

 about with Rome or Gallia and just after Delicious. Pick- 

 ing date is about with Rome or may be picked just before 

 Stayman. As a dessert apple the flavor is good, surpassing 

 that of Rome Beauty. It is somewhat juicy, neither sharp 

 nor sweet but. pleasingly mild: cooking does not detract from 

 the flavor but seems to improve it: whether baked or stewed 

 the flesh has tendency to hold its shape well. Fruits hold 

 well in storage into April and May, being less susceptible to 

 scald than Rome Beauty. Can be recommended for planting 

 anywhere Rome and Delicious succeed. Can supply in one 

 year trees only.

FRANKLIN 



A NEW AND PROMISING APPLE 



Coming From Ohio Experimental Station. 



For 15 years the Franklin apple variety introduced by the 

 Ohio Experiment Station, has been under continuous obser- 

 vation. It is a resulting seedling obtained by fertilizing Mc- 

 intosh flowers with Delicious pollen. The fruit flesh is faint- 

 ly yellow, fine grained. It is mild, moderately juicy, not 

 quite as sweet as Delicious but with rather more character 

 than Mcintosh, being intermediate between the two, with a 

 pleasing aroma. Franklin excels both parents in appearance 

 having a brilliant red overcolor, resembling Delicious, with a 

 golden vellow under-color, with very distinct bloom. Fruits 

 are medium to good size, oblong in shape. Franklin is note- 

 able for fresh dessert quality which is best from late Octo- 

 ber to earlv January, being definitely a fall and early winter 

 apple. Blooms about with Delicious. Jonathan. Rome: ripen- 

 ing a week earlier than Delicious and a little later than Jona- 

 than. It is a heavy annual bearer where properly pollinated, 

 fruiting all over the tree as in Mcintosh. Should thrive 

 wherever Delicious. Jonathan and Mcintosh can be grown.
