WINTER APPLES. 



BISMARCK— This most valuable new apple, introduced from New Zealand a few years 

 ago, through the agency of a celebrated arboretum in Germany, promises to take the place of 

 almost every other apple grown in this country and abroad. It has already been fully tested 

 in Russia, Germany, France, England, United States and Canada; and wherever grown it has 

 proved a most astonishing: revelation, not only in high quality, but also in hardines!>, ami 

 especially in earliness of fruiting. The color of the fruit is a beautiful golden 3'ellow, and its 

 size is the largest. The trees bear most profusely, and the showy fruits are eagerly sought 

 after, always bringing the highest market price. Bismarck trees bear at an earlier age than 

 any other apple, and the fruit keeps well into March. As a dessert apple it has no equal, 

 owing to its distinct and most delicious flavor. It is also found especially suitable for cooking 

 purposes. It bears fruit when only one or two years old, and it has been grown in large 

 quantities as a pot-plant for table and greenhouse decoration. Large, 40 cts. each, $4 per doz.; 

 medium, 30 cts. each, $3 per doz.; small, postpaid, 25 cts. each, $2.50 per doz.
