Harvesting a bumper crop of Transparent Apples from young trees. 



Yellow Transparent 



Ripens extremely early. Skin clear Yellow. Flesh white. 

 The favor, tchile slightly acid, is excellent. Size medium to large 



This apple is a favorite sort for all growers who are able to 

 dispose of the crop in nearby markets. It bruises readily and 

 must be handled very carefully. For that reason it should not be 

 used if your market necessitates a long carry. In the summer 

 months you will usually find 



YELLOW TRANSPARENT FIRST ON THE MARKET 



as it ripens early in July, making excellent eating apples, and 

 selling without difficulty. There is almost no competition at this 

 time ; Yellow Transparent leads the field, and is eagerly sought 

 for by those people who find their "apple appetites" impatient. 



YELLOW TRANSPARENT TREES BEAR EARLY 



and produce nearly every season. They are rather dwarf grow- 

 ers, and may be planted a little closer than most other varieties. 

 A fine soil is not necessary, or even desirable, as the trees seem 

 to grow best on rather poor ground, such as hillsides and uplands. 



ADAPTABILITY IS AN ADDITIONAL ADVANTAGE 



It thrives just as well in the South as it does in the North. 

 Most varieties are particularly well adapted to a certain region, 

 and, while they may be grown elsewhere, are only at their best 

 when grown in the prescribed region. Yellow Transparent is 

 extremely successful in Georgia, and does equally well in Canada.
