J. T. Lovett— Apples. 



APPLES. 



Plant 30 feet apart each way — i8 trees per acre. 



Dwarf apples are as a rule so unsatisfactory and of so little value that I do not grow them at all. 



[Note.— The soil and climate at Monmouth conspire in developing the apple in its greatest perfection, and 

 my trees are exceedingly flne in every respect, smooth, straight and handsome. In competition with the 

 world at the great apple exhibition, at the Centennial, the fruit of Monmouth County surpassed all others.] 



I call attention to my exceedingly fine stock of ap- 

 ples, consisting of over 75,000, the handsomest of trees.
