STAYMAN WINESAP 
Winter. Dark red skin, tinged with yellow. 
Flesh yellow. Medium to large. 
It really doesn’t seem necessary to describe this variety, 
as the Winesap is known favorably wherever apples are 
sold. You can find people in every locality who will buy 
nothing else. Stayman Winesap is larger than the origi- 
nal 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 varie- 
ties of winter apples which show 
A REAL PREFERENCE FOR POOR SOIL 
If you have a patch of land which does not produce 
according 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. 
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 attractive as ever. It is a strong grower.
