FRUIT AND ORNAMENTAL NURSERY STOCK 21 



Apples, Wolf River, continued 



conspicuous splashes and broad stripes of bright 



carmine; flesh is shghtly tinged with yellow, firm, 



tender, juicy, aromatic and of good quality. It 



keeps remarkably well in ordinary storage, and 



with cold storage its season is practically un- 

 limited. Tree is not an early bearer, but grows 



large and spreading and bears profuse crops every 



other year — sometimes annually. The handsome 



appearance and fine quality of the fruit bring the 



best prices in market, and, as it is a remarkably 



good shipper, it is being planted extensively in 



commercial orchards in all parts of the country. 

 Yellow Bellflower. Fall. Flesh fine-grained, crisp, 



juicy, tender. 

 Yellow Newtown. See Albemarle Pippin. 



Yellow Transparent, f^^^y summer Me- 



dmm to large; 



cream and yellow; tender, juicy, of fine flavor, 

 subacid, fragrant. Trees very young bearers 

 and yield big crops every year. Hardy, dwarf 

 growers; prefer thin soil, such as hillsides and 

 upland. We consider it a splendid Apple and a 

 promising comer commercially, especially at 

 lower elevations in the Northern States. One of 

 the few kinds that grow and bear as well North 

 as South. Will stand Canadian winters, as well 

 as Georgia summers. By many this is considered 

 the best of all extra-early Apples, and comes into 

 market when the demand for sunimer Apples is 

 extra strong; consequently it always brings the 

 best prices. For nearby markets to which it can 

 be shipped in fancy baskets or boxes, it is one of 

 the most valuable Apples in our list. It bruises 

 readily and must be handled with extra care. 



A good keeper, which has 



the advantage of mellowing 

 in time for use soon after picking if not stored to 

 prevent it. Can be kept till the new crop comes. 

 Medium-sized, round, irregular; greenish yellow 

 overlaid with bright red stripes; flesh tender, 

 firm, crisp, juicy and of extra-high flavor, better 

 than a Ben Davis, but does not rank so high as 



York Imperial. 



Stayman's Winesap Apple 



a vigorous grower, 

 an unusually heavy 



York Imperial, continued 

 Grimes' Golden. Tree is 

 strong and healthy and 



bearer. York Imperial trees have not missed 

 crop in the West Virginia section for many years. 

 Does well everywhere — eastern, central and 

 western growers find it equally adapted to their 

 conditions. Often exported and sold for prices 

 approaching those of Hood River Newtowns and 

 Spitzenburgs, or Bitter Root Mclntoshes. It 

 is one of the most important commercial Apples 

 grown, as its territory is greater than that of any 

 one variety. In ordinary storage it will keep well 

 till April or May. A splendid fruit for fancy 

 trade and always brings the top prices in market 

 if packed and shipped properly. (See page 16.) 



APPLES, CRAB 



Crab Apples form a valuable crop, both in home and commercial orchards, as they are much desired 

 for preserves and jellies, and in market always bring good prices. The trees are particularly desirable for 

 planting in the home grounds as they are rather small and distinctly beautiful whether in flower or fruit.
