APPLES, continued 



WINESAP. Winter. In the great Apple regions of Maryland, Virginia, West 

 Virginia and the Appalachian section the Winesap is the Apple that should 

 be planted freely. It can be grown in southern Pennsylvania, but, as a general 

 rule, we recommend Stayman for planting north of Maryland. Winesap is 

 of medium size, oblong, smooth; fine, dark red skin; the flesh is tinted yellow, 

 tender, crisp and juicy. 



Winter Paradise (Paradise Winter Sweet). Winter. Color dull green, with 

 brownish red flush. Tree vigorous grower. 



WOLF RIVER. Summer. An exceedingly large and handsome Apple, which 

 has supplanted Alexander in many of the large commercial orchards in the 

 West. Skin is bright yellow, mottled and blushed with deep red and marked 

 with conspicuous splashes and broad stripes of bright carmine; flesh is 

 slightly 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 unlimited. Bears profuse crops every other year, sometimes 

 annually. 



Yellow Bellflower. Winter. A handsome, large Apple, with crisp, tender, 

 iiiicv flesh. 



Yellow Newtown. Winter. Yellow,

of the best commercial Apples, and 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 con- 

 sidered the best of all extra-early white Apples, and comes 

 into market when the demand for summer Apples is extra strong; conse- 

 quently 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. The fruit is medium to large, cream and yellow; tender, juicy, 

 of fine flavor, subacid, fragrant. Trees very young bearers and yield big 

 crops. Dwarf growlers; prefer thin soil, such as hillsides and upland. 



YORK IMPERIAL. Winter. Medium sized, round, irregular, greenish 

 yellow overlaid with bright red stripes; flesh tender, firm, crisp, juicy. Often 

 exported and sold. It has the advantage of mellowing in time for use soon 

 after picking if not stored to prevent it. Tree is a vigorous grower, strong and 

 healthy, and an unusually heavy bearer.

It is always well to use dynamite when planting trees in h'?avy soil, or when there is 

 hard earth a few feet beneath the surface. It loosens the sub-soil, makes it porous and 

 provides room for root growth. The loosened soil insures good d.aina^e, a.id conserves 

 moisture for the feeding-roots.
