BLAXTAYMAN 



(Trade Mark) 



THE FULFILLMENT OF THE FRUIT GROWERS WISH— A SOLID BRIGHT RED 



APPLE WITH STAYMAN'S QUALITY AND THE SAME HARDY AND 



PRODUCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS 



First offered by the Bountiful Ridge Nurseries in the spring of 1930, and we consider it one of the most valuable 

 apples of recent introduction to the eastern fruit grower. See back cover page for color illustration. 



The fruit is equally as large or larger than the Regular Staymans. The tree is equally as thrifty as the Old Staymans. 

 The apple has a slightly tougher skin, which tends to make it keep better in storage and carry better to the markets. The 

 apple, having a slightly heavier skin, has never been known to crack at the stem. The apple will not scald in storage as 

 readily because of its clear bright red color without any stripe. The apple has the same shape as the old type of Staymans 

 Winesap. Because of its solid red color you can pick the apple earlier if desired and seek the export markets with one of 

 the best quality apples now in cultivation. Because of its solid red color you can harvest almost 100% extra fancy grade 

 and fancy grade apples. Can you as a planter disregard these natural advantages which nature has contributed to our 

 progressive age? We give a brief history of this wonderful apple.

It pays to plant the best regardless of price, and every alert orchardist should choose his varieties by looking into the 

 future and visioning what competition he will have to meet when these trees now set come into heavy fruiting. You 

 should plant the best of each type of fruit, varieties that will sell at any time, for this is what makes your orchard profit- 

 able. You cannot discount the advantages to be realized from planting an apple that colors a full BRIGHT RED and has 

 the shape and quality of the Old Staymans, with the added advantage of the fruit not cracking and holding better in 

 storage, and we urge that if you desire the Staymans type of fruit plant the Blaxtayman by all means, not for the present, 

 but for your future market. We have further reduced the price this year and are trying to meet you in every way possible 

 for we want you to succeed. Plant liberally of these Red Sports. They are bound to be winners for you. Our trees are 

 fine this year — both one and two year olds. ORDER NOW.
