— MELROSE (a) 
A New Late Keeping Winter Apple 
From observations we can recommend this new apple as 
a companion to and wherever Delicious, Jonathan and Stay- 
man are being grown. 
Introduced by Ohio Agriculture Experimental Station. A 
cross of Jonathan and Delicious. Tree blooms later than 
either parent. Fruits ripen just before Staymans, keep well 
in cold storage until April and so far has proven free of 
Jonathan spot. 
Fruits are well covered with an attractive carmine and 
have a live yellow undertone. Fruits larger than Jonathan 
—firm, crisp, juicy, not as tart as Jonathan or as sweet as 
Delicious. Excellent cooking and dessert quality. 
Tree bears moderately young, is upright, spreading with 
good crotch angles and develops to reasonably large tree. 
~ BLAXTAYMAN (6) 
(Trade Mark Registered U. S. Patent Office) 
The Blaxtayman Surpasses Most Other Improved Strains 
of The Stayman 
Its Fruiting Record Has Established The Blaxtayman 
Generally As One of Our Good Commercial Apples. 
The BLAXTAYMAN was introduced to the Eastern Fruit 
growers, spring of 1930. In the BLAXTAYMAN we have 
every characteristic of the famous Stayman apple with the 
exception that THE FRUIT COLORS A BEAUTIFUL SOLID 
RED. The fruit is equally as large or larger than the regu- 
lar Stayman. The trees are equally as thrifty as the regu- 
lar Stayman. The apple has a SLIGHTLY TOUGHER SKIN 
WHICH TENDS TO MAKE IT KEEP BETTER IN STOR- 
AGE AND CARRY BETTER TO THE MARKETS. THE 
APPLE HAS THE SAME SHAPE AS THE OLD STAYMAN. 
THE FLESH FinNER IN TEXTURE AND MORE MILD IN 
FLAVOR WHEN GROWN AT LOWER ELEVATIONS 
THAN THE OLD STAYMAN. Because of the Earlier Color- 
ing and solid Red Color the grower can pick the fruit earlier 
if desired. The BLAXTAYMAN will not get a dark and un- 
attractive color if allowed to remain on the tree but instead 
the apples become more brilliant and beautiful. 
Without ques- 
tion 
STAYMAN WINESAP (16a) the most 
profitable apple ever grown in the fruit producing areas of 
the Central States. Tree vigorous, hardy, spreading. An 
early bearer and very productive. Fruit medium to large 
size, round approaching conic; skin smooth, slightly striped, 
flesh firm, tender, juicy, rich, sub-acid, aromatic, quality the 
very best. A splendid late keeping variety.

~ Improved Double Red Stayman 
(201 Type) (16b) 
One of the newer introductions which has found favor with 
some growers. Trees and fruit characteristics similar to Blax- 
tayman except it has a more brilliant color which lays on 
earlier and does not get the dark shade often found in some 
Stayman types. Our observations show this type to com- 
pare very much with our Early Red Stayman. 
RUBY (l6e) 
For full description see page 15. 
WINTER BANANA (7) Qoerr bruit medium to 
large, smooth and handsome golden yellow, usually shaded 
with red blush; flesh fine grained, rich sub-acid, aromatic; 
highest quality. 
BALDWIN (1a) 
Hold Your Baldwin Market With Collier Strain—The 
Best Type We Have Found For Size and Color 
Buds were selected from one of the finest producing Bald- 
win trees ever observed, and comes from the Charles Collier 
ruit Farm at Claverick, N. Y. No type yields larger crops, 
bears shipment better or is more attractive in color, size and 
shape than the Collier Baldwin. It is esteemed as an eating 
apple and for cooking. 
Dear Sirs: 
I received your fruit trees and they look good. I am 
pleased with their proportion and branches. Several years 
ago I bought 3 dwarf apples and 3 dwarf pears and 2 of the 
pears already bore fruit. The Clapps Favorite dwarf was 
so heavy with fruit I was afraid the branches would break 
and I enjoyed eating them.

MONROE (jb) A resulting cross between Jonathan 
and 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. 
These are some of the beautiful 2 yr. old apple that we 
have for our customers this year. They have made extra 
strong growth and are sure to mean success to the planter. 
We have a nice supply of these extra fine trees in all va- 
rieties. PLANT BOUNTIFUL RIDGE APPLE TREES this 
year. 
_GALLIA BEAUTY (Red Rome) (8) 
It leads other Red Rome Beauty type apples. It can 
rightfully be called “One of America’s Most Beautiful 
Apples.” Demand the Gallia Beauty when planting 
the Red Rome type apple. 
The Gallia Beauty originated in Ohio and is a typical Rome 
type tree, being thrifty, hardy and productive. The fruit of 
the Gallia Beauty colors a brilliant bright red, without 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 will not size up 
satisfactorily and again we urge you to plant only the Gen- 
uine Gallia Beauty. We offer you the best and charge you 
no more. 
~ APPLEGATE RED ROME (8a) 
A RED BUD SPORT OF THE ROME BEAUTY 
WE ARE PROUD TO PRESENT 
The Applegate Red Rome comes from the orchards of 
Leslie N. Appiegate, Freehold, N. J., where we have observed 
its behavior for many years. 
Size alone recommends this strain if nothing else were con- 
sidered 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. 
The tree is similar in growth and shape as regular Rome. 
One year trees only. 
ROME BEAUTY (18b) Keeps in good condition 
till May and June. Large 
round, mottled and striped in handsome shades of red: flay- 
or and quality way above the average: appearance and size 
are its valuable points; always sells and always brings good 
prices. 
June, 1959 
Dear Sirs: 
Last year we bought some nursery stock from you and it 
was the finest we have ever had. Was packed so well that it 
was fresh as if just out of the nursery.
