POPULAR APPLE 



The RICHARED DELICIOUS is a blood red mutation of 

 the famous Delicious Apple. Facts about the RICHARED: 

 You have a tree of the same hardy characteristics as the old 

 Delicious, producing an apple with that same appetizing, de- 

 licious flavor, producing an apple that colors a full bright 

 red, without a trace of stripe, on every part of the tree, the 

 apple attaining this color weeks before we usually pick the 

 regular Delicious, thus enabling everyone who grows it to 

 ■eliminate the loss from drop apples, to pick earlier, to mar- 

 ket earlier, if he desires to do so to seek a foreign market 

 with a high quality apple that has superior carrying quali- 

 ties when picked early and to keep it longer in storage for 

 our late markets if desired. 



The higher prices received for the fruit of the improved 

 strain of the Delicious apple prove that the grower can

 year for the future markets when quality and beauty of fruit 

 will prevail.

RUBY 



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 striking brilliant over-all 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.

Improved Winesap 



A Glorified Selection of the Famous Winesap Comes to 

 the Planter with the same Beautiful Color — Same Quality — 

 Same Keeping Ability. 



"Seek and ye shall find" is the motto at Bountiful Ridge 

 in their search for New and Better fruits. For years fruit 

 growers from many sections have clamored for a LARGE 

 WINESAP APPLE. Many types have come to our obser- 

 vation and when traced down were found wanting until 

 Mr. Harry W. Miller, President of The Consolidated Orchard 

 Co., Paw' Paw, W. Va., told us of this type they have pro- 

 ducing in their well known Martins Mountain orchard and 

 which when investigated proved to be more than he claimed. 



The original tree stands in a block of the Regular Stay- 

 man and has not failed to produce a heavy crop now for 

 over 25 consecutive years, the fruits being as large or larger 

 some years than the regular Stayman on adjoining trees. 



The fruit has every characteristic of the old Winesap in 

 shape, color, quality and growth habits and at harvest time. 

 Mr. Miller has been able to pack most of the apples in the 

 2%" up size, the balance going into the 2Vi" grade. The 

 tree is a typical Winesap tree in growth, having the exact 

 leaf marking of the old Winesap. The Miller Bros., are bet- 

 ter known as the "Pioneer Orchardists of West Virginia" 

 and are producing more apples than any other individual or 

 family group in the State today. We are proud that approx- 

 imately 70% of their producing orchards are trees we grew 

 for them. They are known almost nationally as authorities 

 on fruit production and varieties. It is fitting indeed that 

 an improved tvpe of the Famous and Nationally known 

 Winesap apple should originate in their orchard.

 go wrong when you plant this strain of bright Red Stayman.

 the regular Stayman. Growers can pick the entire crop at 

 one picking if desired and avoid losses. Relieves the large 

 grower of Stayman of his picking problem. Cold storage 

 tests show it will keep through to following May and come 

 out with less scald, more flavor and more snap than any 

 other type Stayman. It's different — It's what you want — It 

 has that natural full bright Stayman finish. Originated with 

 the late F. S. Neipling. Waterford, N. J., and was discovered 

 among the first trees he planted of Blaxtavman in 1929.
