STAYMAN WINE SAP 



Stayman Winesap — the leader — best red apple grown. 

 Superior strain is a bright red type, almost 100% attractive 

 Red color when properly grown. A huge money maker 



Eastern Growers Plant It Largely 



in the new orchards, and they are men who 

 know what tree value is. They realize that 

 this apple will produce as good results as 

 many others, and do it on poorer ground. 

 Naturally, not so much capital is required 

 for the investment. 



With the old Winesap, the fruit tends to 

 decrease in size as the tree ages; with the 

 Stayman it is generally as large and attrac- 

 tive as ever. It is a strong grower, comes 

 into bearing early, and is reasonably certain 

 to produce good crops every year. 



Winter. Dark red skin. Flesh 

 yellow. Medium to large. 



It really doesn't seem neces- 

 sary to describe this variety, 

 as the Winesap is known fa- 

 vorably wherever apples are 

 sold. You can find people in 

 every locality who will buy 

 nothing else. Stayman Wine- 

 sap is larger than the original 

 Winesap and somewhat later. 

 It is also more prolific. 



One of the most desirable 

 points about this tree is that 

 it does not require rich soil; 

 in fact, it seems to do best on 

 land that is dry and hard. 

 Many apples will do well on 

 ordinarily good soil, but there 

 are only a few varieties of 

 winter apples which show 



A Real Preference for 

 Poor Soil 



If you have a patch of land 

 which does not produce ac- 

 cording to your expectations, 

 and if your land suffers from 

 dry spells which do not permit 

 grain and vegetables to mature, try an acre 

 of Stayman Winesaps. They will convince 

 you that your land has a decided value — 

 but it must be planted to the right crop. 



Harrisons' Superior Strain Is Best 



We have in our own commercial orchards 

 several thousand trees of Stayman Winesap 

 and we have selected for our parent trees the 

 finest, deepest colored, being annual bear- 

 ing trees. We feel confident that our select 

 super strain is far superior to several new 

 strains that are being offered by some nursery- 

 men. Play safe — plant Harrisons' time-tried 

 and proven strain of Stayman Winesap. 



Stayman Winesap Is Always 



Dependable 



Many varieties of apple trees have a good 

 year and an "off year"; that is, they will give 

 a large crop one year and next season pro- 

 duce very little. While conduct of this sort 

 cannot always be blamed upon the variety, 

 since climate, temperature and other causes 

 enter into the question, yet Stayman Wine- 

 sap seems to ripen a more uniform crop than 

 many of the others, and letters from our cus- 

 tomers inform us that the regularity of crop 

 is remarkable. This is naturally a valuable 

 qualification, and, in part, accounts for the 

 choice of many Eastern orchardists. The 

 taste and appearance tell the rest of the 

 story. For a pollenizer plant Grimes Golden.

 pose apple grown in any apple district. You
