When existing conditions get settled there will be a big market for Export Apples 



WINTER VARIETIES 



Gano 



GANO (Black Ben). A handsome, large apple 

 of perfect shape, with a smooth, glossy, 

 brilliant deep red skin; flesh is white, 

 slightly tinged with yellow, firm, rather 

 coarse, crisp, mild, sub-acid, fair flavor. 

 Gano is one of the most popular export 

 apples, being bought by South American 

 trade at a premium in prices to others. 

 Excellent keeper, standing long shipments 

 as well as any other variety, usually packed 

 in barrels. Tree is a strong, vigorous 

 grower, with somewhat drooping branches, 

 and comes into bearing young, producing 

 regular and abundant crops. A sure 

 money-maker for the export trade. 



DELICIOUS. Of peculiar and distinctive shape; 

 brilliant dark red, flesh fine grained, juicy. 

 crisp and melting, flavor sweet, with a 

 slight acid taste, with a delightful aroma, 

 very highest quality. Excellent for eating. 

 and the most popular fruit stand apple. 

 Packs well in boxes and bushels, always 

 bringing high prices on the leading mar- 

 kets, and in strong demand by the best 

 trade. Being a good shipper, along with 

 its high red color and fine flavor, has 

 placed the Delicious among the top- 

 notchers. Tree is hard, vigorous grower 

 and a good, dependable cropper when 

 properly pollenized. Suggest planting 

 Grimes Golden and Jonathans as pollen - 

 Izers with Delicious. 



Albemarle Pippin. See Yellow New- 

 town for description. 



BALDWIN. Large, round, bright 

 red, crisp, juicy and rich; good 

 late keeper, esteeemed as an 

 eating apple and for cooking. 

 Quick and large gTower; yields 

 big crops. A wonderful ship- 

 per, standing long distances 

 very successfully. The best 

 northern apple for packing in 

 barrels, fine cold storage apple, 

 strong demand for carload 

 shipments of Baldwins to Eu- 

 ropean and South American 

 markets. Brings high prices 

 on foreign markets; also pop- 

 ular on the New England and 

 Northern States markets. Grows 

 to perfection in New England, 

 New York, Pennsylvania, Mich- 

 igan and Canada, but should 

 not be planted south of the 

 Mason-Dixon line. Baldwin is 

 the leading commercial variety 

 in the Northern States. 



Ben Davis. Fine looking, large, 

 round; yellow with red stripes; 

 flesh white, juicy, sub-acid, coarse. Good 

 for cooking, but on account of poor flavor 

 not desirable for fresh eating. Finest 

 keeper known. Can be kept in cold stor- 

 age until July. Excellent shipper, usually 

 packed in barrels. Best known export 

 apple, always in good demand by European, 

 South American and Asiatic buyers; high- 

 est prices. Grow Ben Davis on a com- 

 mercial scale for export trade. Tree is a 

 rapid grower, healthy, vigorous, bears at 

 an early age, heavy cropper and a sure 

 bearer. 



Cortland. A promising new variety resulting 

 from cross pollenization of Mcintosh Red 

 and Ben Davis, and inheriting the good 

 qualities of each parent. Beautiful red 

 apple, approximately the same size and 

 fine flavor of the Mcintosh, but ripens 

 about three weeks or a month later. Good 

 keeper. Our buds were .cut direct from the 

 bearing Cortland in a prominent orchard 

 at Kinderhook, New York. 



Ensee. Dull red. suggesting its Rome Beauty 

 strain in size and shape; crisp, tender, yel- 

 low flesh and good flavor. 



Gallia Beauty. A Rome Beauty type of apple 

 identical in every respect, except its earlier 

 coloring qualities, recommended for com- 

 mercial planting.
