APPLES, continued 



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.

THE ONE APPLE THAT 

 WILL GROW ANYWHERE 



This variety is one of the few kinds that will grow and bear well in the South 



as well as in the North. It stands with equal vigor the summers of Georgia and 



the severe Canadian 



winters. By many 



growers Yellow 



Transparent is con- 

 sidered the best ex- 

 tra-early Apple, and 



comes into the mar- 

 ket when the demand 



for summer Apples 



is extra strong; 



consequently it al- 

 ways brings the best 



prices. For nearby 



markets, to which it 



can be shipF>ed in 



fancy baskets or box- 

 es, it is one of the 



most valuable Apples 



in our list. It bruises 



readily and must be 



handled with extra 



care. The fruit is 



medium to large in 



size, with cream and 



yellow skin and white 



flesh. The flavor i? 



superb, slightly acid. 



The trees ar^ hardy, 



rather dwarf growers, 



begin tc bear when 



young, and produce 



jaearly every season; seem to prefer thin soils, like hillsides and uplands. 



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 

 healthv, and an unusuallv heavv bearer.
