 we dol) when we can easily grow our own? Let's 

 do it. Here are the kinds with which to do it.

 habit of growth. It is of slender willowy growth — 

 not a very strong grower. The berries when fully

 size. I year, each, 50c.; dozen, $5.00. 2 years,

VEGETABLE ROOTS AND HERB PLANTS

THE LOVETT APPLE 



(See illustration below) 



After eleven years of critical tests under widely varj^ang conditions of soil, season and climate, the 

 Lovett Apple has come through with flying colors as the most prolific summer apple in cultivation. 

 With the quality of abundant bearing (^see branch above) it combines an exceedingly attractive appear- 

 ance. Unbiase<i critics have pronounced it one of the most beautiful apples in cultivation. 



Wl.ile the above two characteristics would be sufficient to malse it popular, it possesses, in addition, a 

 texture of flesh and aromatic flavor that make it one of the finest quality apples imaginable. Superior in 

 manv instances to old Mcintosh, it ripens the early part of August, producing a great abundance of ex- 

 ceedingly handsome apples above the average in size. 



We have known ana grown the majority of standard varieties of apples over a period of many years, 

 and on the basis of thorough trials, intensive studies and unbiased jucigment, we feel safe in saying that 

 the Lovett Apple will become as popular a summer fruit as Baldwin and Delicious are, among the winter 

 varieties today. Price each, $1.50; dozen, $15.00.
