[lams 



Very early. Skin a dark, rich red. Flesh ichite, juicy, 



slightly tart. Size large 



This variety stands head and shoulders above its fellows. It 



can be placed on the market shortly after Yellow Transparent, 



and has an advantage of coloring which appeals to many people. 



WILLIAMS IS LARGE IN SIZE 



and will get customers because of its color and size alone. In- 

 credible as it may seem, there are some people who believe that 

 red is the only color for a good apple. Naturally, they do not 

 purchase summer apples until Williams makes its appearance. 



WILLIAMS STANDS SHIPPING WELL 



and may be successfully sent long distances, which enables grow- 

 ers of this splendid apple to get top prices from large cities ; de- 

 mand is always brisk, and the residents are able to pay good 

 prices for good fruit. 



The region in which this apple is particularly successful ex- 

 tends from New York to Virginia. Many growers plant both 

 Williams and Y'ellow Transparent, and so consider themselves 

 well fortified against the prejudice of customers and markets.
