HARRISON-GROWN APPLE TREES, continued 



ROME BEAUTY. Winter. Large, round; mottled and striped in different 

 shades of red; flavor and quality way above the average; appearance and 

 size are its valuable points; always sells and always brings good prices; good 

 grower; blooms late; bears heavily every year; is adapted to a wide range of 

 soils, elevations and conditions. In Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and West 

 Virginia will make more money than some of the sorts which are now a large 

 part of the total number of trees in commercial orchards. Reliability, due 

 to being frost-proof, strong-growing and sure-bearing, makes it a favorite 

 with the grower. Fine quality for use and for handling makes it popular 

 with consumers and dealers. When packed in boxes it shows up splendidly. 



Smokehouse. Fall. Red. 



Spitzenburg. Winter. Red. 



STARK. Winter. A reliable commercial sort. Fruit large, round, greenish' 

 yellow, with red stripes; flesh yellow, crisp and mildly acid. Tree a regular 

 bearer, reliable and satisfactory in an orchard, grows even and regularly, 

 seldom splits or breaks. Has been planted in the East and in California to a 

 considerable extent during the past twenty years. One of the strongest 

 growers we have. Desirable trees to top-work other sorts on. 



STARR. Summer. A particularly attractive, large Apple, with bright yellowish, 

 smooth skin, sometimes marked with a faint blush and numerous russet dots; 

 flesh yellow, fine, very tender, crisp, juicy, aromatic and of extra-fine quality. 

 Tree is a vigorous grower, comes into bearing when quite young. 



STAYMAN WINESAP. Winter. Stayman succeeds wonderfully in the Middle 

 Atlantic states. It is a splendid Apple, some growers say the best there 

 is for these sections. The trees come into bearing in five years or sooner, 

 and, with good care, give four to ten or more bushels of fruit per tree after 

 the eighth year. The fruit is medium to large; attractive green and yellow, 

 almost hidden by dark red stripes, flesh yellow, not in the least mealy; plenty 

 of juice; quality the finest, ranking with Yellow Newtown and Grimes. Tree 

 a quick and large grower, and seems to prefer dry soils and those not so rich 

 and heavy. Preeminently the Apple to plant on dry hills where the soil is 

 thin and water often decidedly lacking. Stayman is now planted in nearly 

 all new orchards in the East to a large extent. You cannot find a better 

 sort in the whole list, either for bearing habit, size of fruit, looks or quality. 

 Except at the highest elevations, this splendid variety is almost always our 

 most desirable Apple for all sections east of the Mississippi. We are planting 

 tens of thousands of Stayman trees in our own orchards; some new orchards 

 we are setting almost solid to Stayman. The man who plants Stayman 

 plants for quick, sure profit. 



Sweet Bough. Summer. Yellow with blush. 



Tompkins King. Fall. Will keep quite late in winter if stored in a cool 

 place. Fruit is bright red, with yellow tint; flesh yellow, crisp and juicy. 



Wagener. Winter. A bright red Apple of fine flavor and texture. Tree is 

 an early bearer and a reliable producer. 



WEIALTHY. Fall. Medium size, round or with a point; almost solid red; flesh 

 white or a httle stained, tender, crisp, juicy, fine-grained, aromatic and very 

 good. Splendid keeper, but best in December and January. It is one of the 

 most profitable market Apples and always brings good prices, especially 

 late in the season, when its quality is of the best. Tree very hardy and vig- 

 orous, and bears regular and abundant crops. "Wealthy belts" are in the 

 higher districts and mountains. If Wealthy has been grown successfully in 

 locations and soils similar to yours, plant it by all means. 



W^ILLI^J^g (Williams Early Red). Summer. Large size; dark red, 



sometimes yellow-splashed; flesh crisp, tender, juicy and 



subacid. Ready for market when people are growing hungry for new Apples. 

 Especially popular in New England, and in the Boston markets it brings 

 a good price. It is worthy of planting in every Apple-growing section. 

 Trees begin to bear when quite young. See second cover page for illustra- 

 tion of this splendid Apple in color.
