one of the best general purpose apples. A general favorite

~’DOUBLE RED DELICIOUS (!e) 
A bud selected sport of the famous Delicious apple highly 
recommended for early color on low elevations. 
The description of DOUBLE RED DELICIOUS follows 
that of Delicious except its ability to lay on early color at 
low elevations which the regular Delicious will not do. 
Many growers experience difficulty obtaining color early 
enough to compete in early markets where the Delicious is 
grown at low elevyations—for them the Double Red Delicious 
is the answer. The apple gets very dark in color at_ ele- 
vation of 100 feet or more and we recommend our RICHA- 
RED DELICIOUS for planting above that elevation. 
Our Double Red Delicious is favorably compared with 
what is being sold as Starking. 
DELICIOUS (13) We no longer propagate the regu- 
lar delicious because of lack of de- 
mand for it with the introduction of Improved types as list- 
ed above which we recommend to all planters of the red 
delicious, as it is Commonly known.

RHODE ISLAND GREENING (1) 
Fruit large and handsome, smooth, dark green over-spread 
with yellow. Flesh tender, rich, rather acid, but highly fiay- 
ored and excellent: tree vigorous, spreading. 
Large, roundish - conical, 
often flattened, slightly

ribbed; 
mild sub-acid, fine. 
Red Spy is a typ- 
ical Northern Spy 
except in color. The Red Spy colors a solid bright red with- 
out either stripes or splashes. If you desire more color in 
your Spy apples plant the Red Northern Spy. 
TURLEY (14¢e) to recommend it as a profitable com- 
mercial variety. The trees resemble Stayman and are vig- 
orous, rapid growers, productive and early bearing. 
The apples average large to very large, skin smooth and 
colors a bright attractive red over the entire apple. Flesh 
firm, quality is good but cannot be classed as a high dessert 
apple. The value of this apple lies in the fact that it will 
not crack under normal conditions. 
This beautiful apple has many points

“SMELROSE (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 croteh angles and develops to reasonably large tree. 
Gives promise of becoming a valuable addition to our late 
keeping winter apples of high dessert quality.

“STAYMAN WINESAP (16a) 
Without ques- 
tion 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, 
coloring to a dull red; flesh firm, tender, juicy, rich, sub- 
acid, aromatic, quality the very best. A splendid late keep- 
ing variety. 
“Improved Double Red Stayman 
(201 Type) (16) 
One of the newer introductions which has found favor with 
some growers. Tree 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.

WINTER BANANA (17) Vigorous grower: early 
bearer. Fruit medium 
to large, smooth and handsome golden yellow, usually shaded 
with red blush; flesh fine grained, rich sub-acid, aromatic; 
highest quality. 
\\ BALDWIN (1%) 
Hold Your Baldwin Market With Collier Strain—The 
Best Type We Have Found For Size and Color. 
suds were selected from one of the finest producing Bald- 
win trees ever observed, and comes from the Charles Collier 
Iruit Farm at Claverick, N. Y. No variety 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. 
It produces apples year after year of exceptional size and 
the color is superb. Baldwin is again finding a place in the 
apple world and you need this fine strain. 
‘ GALBRAITH BALDWIN (1%) 
A Promising Red Sport of the Famous Baldwin. 
Tree behavior about the same as regular Baldwin. Fruit 
a definite improvement in that it colors two weeks earlier 
to a solid red color at harvest. 
The red is of medium shade, not quite as bright as Gallia 
Beauty nor as dark as Richared or Starking. 
It has plenty of snap and brilliance that make up a beau- 
tiful pack. 
While the popularity of Baldwin has declined slightly in 
recent years, we believe the Galbraith to be superior to many 
strains now being grown and certainly worthy ot considera- 
tion by those wishing to continue growing the variety. 
1 Yr. old Apple Trees growing at Bountiful Ridge, sum- 
mer 1954. These Gallia Beauty, many 6 ft. tall. The dream 
of good one year trees come true.
