APPLES 



EVER THE MOST POPULAR FRUIT 

 Price of all varieties of Apple trees (except Lovett), each, 75c; dozen, ^7.50; 100, ^40.00 



All Apple trees offered in this catalog are 



two years old, or older, and first-class in every 

 respect; we have never grown better. 



We will be glad to quote by letter, extra fine, 

 one-year-old Apple trees to those wishing same 

 for commercial orchards. 



Baldwin — Early winter. Dark red, of good 

 quality. Thrives best in Northern latitudes. 



Banana (Winter Banana) — Late fall. Beau- 

 tiful waxen yellow, with blush cheek, large, very 

 beautiful, highest quality. 



CORTLAND 



A decided improvement on Mcintosh, an ex- 

 cellent variety for late keeping, and also a splen- 

 did shipper. Comparatively speaking, Cortland 

 averages larger than Mcintosh and is more uni- 

 form in size. Fruits are more highly colored, 

 the red being of a lighter and brighter shade. 

 The flesh is quite firm and juicy. In season of 

 ripening it comes several weeks after Mcintosh, 

 and the Apples cling better to the trees. 



Delicious — The Apples vary slightly in shape 

 and coloring in different sections and on different 

 soils, but are always of good size. Early winter. 



Lovett Apple — It is an abundant summer 

 bearer, unusually prolific, and a most beautiful 

 specimen to behold. Ripening in the early part of 

 August, it produces an Apple of pleasing flavor, 

 firm flesh, and above average in size. While the 

 above characteristics would be sufficient to make 

 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 many respects, to old Mcintosh. Each, ^1.50; 

 dozen, ^15.00. 



English Coddling — Fruit large to very large; 

 form, round and flat; color, greenish-yellow, with 

 dull red cheek where exposed to sun; good 

 quality, rather acid. 



Gravenstein — Large; yellow, nearly covered 

 with dull red. September and October. 



Grimes' Golden — Of just medium size, but 

 very delicious; matures in early winter. 



Jonathan — Late winter. Round, of medium 

 size, fine grained and of acid flavor. 



King — The fruits are a beautiful red on a 

 yellow background, uniformly large and sym- 

 metrical. It is crisp, tender, juicy, aromatic, and 

 richly flavored. Requires fertile, well-drained soil 

 and sheltered situations to do its best. Winter. 



Maiden Blush — Distinctive and very handsome 

 crimson-cheeked, lemon-yellow fruit. Very good 

 for cooking. Late fall. 



Mcintosh — Autumn. A most beautiful Apple 

 of extra high quality. Deep red in color; a splen- 

 did keeper. 



Twenty Ounce — Fruits are extra large, hand- 

 somely colored, with stripes and splashes of red. 

 Unsurpassed for cooking. 



Red Astrachan — Early summer. Large; deep 

 crimson; flesh white, of a rich acid flavor. 



Rhode Island Greening — Large; yellowish- 

 green; tender, juicy, rich. November to March. 



Rome Beauty — Winter. Mostly red with some 

 yellow; excellent keeper; reliable. 



Stayman's Winesap — One of the finest Apples 

 for fancy trade and always in demand. Of de- 

 licious, spicy flavor and juiciness. November un- 

 til late April. 



Wealthy — Unique in its production of white 

 fleshed, juicy beauties. 



Williams Early Red — The fruit is large, 

 bright crimson, of most attractive shape, 

 and of good quality. Summer. 



York Imperial (Johnson's Fine Win- 

 ter) — Medium to large; greenish-yellow, 

 nearly covered with bright red; flesh firm 

 and juicy; vigorous growth. November 

 to March. 



Yellow Transparent — Extremely early 

 bearer. Very productive of medium to 

 large Apples of uniform shape. Flesh 

 white, juicy and spicy. 



The Lovett Apple is Unexcelled in Appearance 

 Flavor and High Quality.
