JONATHAN 

 Keeps Until February — It's o Real Commercial Variety 



Trees Are Long Lived 



although they bear fruit quite young. Jonathan is 

 more consistent with its crops from year to year than 

 many other varieties, as it will produce good crops 

 practically every year. In the West, Jonathan has long 

 been a standard commercial variety and has proven 

 itself to be one of the leading commercial varieties of 

 the East. Harrisons' super-strain of Jonathan has been 

 produced by "bud selection," being a very high, bril- 

 liant red color.

 HARRISONS' YOUNG-BEARING 

 BRIGHT RED STRAIN 

 OF JONATHAN 

 Blazing Solid Red — Fall Variety 



Skin cherry-red, very thin and tough; flesh white. 

 Size medium to large. Ripens early fall. 



Keeping Qualities Are Good 



Without much care, Jonathan may be kept until 

 February^ or possibly a bit later. When particular care 

 has been paid to the packing and selection of perfect 

 fruits, it will be found a most desirable variety for 

 the holiday season. 



Jonathan Stands Shipping Well 



Many apples are excellent to the eye and to the 

 taste, but fail to stand up under the handling which 

 they must get, and therefore do not enjoy real com- 

 mercial success. Jonathan in this sense is exceptional, 

 for it seems able to stand much handling without Ml 

 effects. The skin is thin but tough.

 mous in section around Crozet, Va., and sections of

PLANT AN APPLE ORCHARD 



NOW of well-selected varieties. 

 This orchard will come into bear- 

 ing when there will be a decided 

 shortage of apples. The unwrit- 

 ten law of supply and demand 

 has always worked and when 

 your orchard comes into bearing 

 the demand for high quality 

 apples will far exceed the avail- 

 able supply. There is a bright ■ 

 future for making money in V 

 growing apples. Plant the best strains of leading commercial 

 varieties preferred on the American and foreign markets.
