Wealthy 
Fall. Skin almost solid red. Flesh white or little stained, 
juicy and crisp. Size medium 
Wealthy requires conditions of soil which are usually found in high 
districts and mountains. Many men who have wondered what could 
be done upon a hillside so sloping that crops could not be grown 
satisfactorily, have found the answer in the culture of Wealthy. 
TREES ARE VERY HARDY 
and are well able to stand almost any severity of temperature found 
in any apple-belt. It furnishes a means for the owner of hilly ground 
to get a good income, and the fruit brings good prices at all times. 
Even an apple with wonderful taste cannot sell for high prices if it 
can only be sold when numerous other apples are on the market. 
Wealthy avoids this difficulty by keeping very well, although it is 
at its best in December and January. 
WEALTHY ENJOYS THREE GOOD POINTS 
every one of which would be enough to make it a popular apple. 
Besides being hardy, it is extremely productive, and, in addition, has 
an excellent taste. You, as a buyer of fruit trees, are looking not only 
to the size, shape, and taste of the apple, but also wish to be sure that 
production and hardiness of the trees are satisfactory. The people who 
buy your fruit care little about the trees; they look only at the apples. 
Here in this one variety you can get a tree which will endure a severe 
winter without complaint; a tree which produces large crops every 
year if conditions are at all suitable; a tree which produces delicious 
apples for which you can get a high price in December and January. 
The striking appearance makes ready sales, and the flavor guarantees 
that the people who try them will return for more. Fine-looking apples 
with a poor taste may be readily sold the first time, but each year 
will make it more difficult for you to market your fruit. Buy trees 
which furnish you with fruit of taste amd appearance. Then you 
can't go wrong.
