Amherst, Mass., July 23, 1948 

 To Whom It May Concern : 



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 grow- 

 ing in the nurseries of Bountiful Ridge Nurseries, 

 Princess Anne, Maryland, have been examined by 

 the Massachusetts 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.

NOTE 



The ripening order of varieties is designated by 

 bracketed number after the name. Varieties over- 

 lapping in ripening season are indicated by sub- 

 letter. Example: Mcintosh and Cortland are same 

 season and are designated 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 where they are mar- 

 keted. Many of our green apples are picked early 

 for cooking purposes. Other highly colored red 

 apples are marketed long before actual ripening 

 time and again soil, fertilization and climatic con- 

 ditions 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. 



YELLOW TRANSPARENT <2a) 



HOLDS A LONG RECORD AS 



AN EARLY MONEY-MAKER 



OUR MOST WIDELY PLANTED 



EARLY COMMERCIAL 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 housewife everywhere. Ripens early July. Used 

 widely for pollenization purposes. 



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 ap- 

 pears to adapt itself over a wide growing area. The 

 fruit is medium to large size, averaging 2l^"; fair to 

 good quality, suitable for both dessert and cooking. 

 The fruit develops a bright attractive color when full 

 ripe but when grown for the large commercial markets 

 would have to be picked with ^A to % color. It seems 

 to stand high summer temperatures 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 ORCHARD PLANT- 

 INGS.
