Alphabetical List of Apples 



Aiken Red. Nov. to Jan. Medium large, yellow- 

 ish; firm, crisp, juicy flesh, good subacid. Fine. 



Alexander (Early.) Large red striped, acid, and 

 coarse. Showy, liable to rot. Good grower, light bearer. 



American Golden Russet. Sometimes called 

 Sheep Nose. Not a late keeper. Medium-sized, round 

 greenish russet or bronze, juicy, spicy, rich, subacid. 

 Tree productive, and vigorous. 



Arkansas Black. Very dark red or almost black. 

 Round, large, subacid, rather coarse. Young bearer 

 and good grower, but has to be nursed. Shy bearer. 

 Chiefly valuable in the semi-arid irrigated part of 

 lower Texas and New Mexico. 



^Baldwin. A good late keeper when grown in the 

 North. Standard in the section from New England 

 to West Virginia. Fruit large, round and a little pointed, 

 splendid red all over; rich subacid; splendid shipper. 

 Quick and large grower; yields big crops, but does not 

 bear young. We have fine young Baldwin trees. 



*Ben Davis. Finest keeper known, fine looking. 

 Large, round, yellow with red stripes; flesh white, juicy, 

 subacid, coarse. 



Bismarck. (Fall and early winter.) Large, crimson 

 or light yellow, quality fair. Small grower and extremely 

 young bearer. Excellent filler, fine dwarf.

 size, dark red, tender, juicy, subacid. Early bearer.

 in flesh and flavor (subacid) . Keep well. Season Jan-

 are natural dwarf growers and make fine fillers, require 

 small root and branch space. Crops nearly always 

 large. One of the important varieties. 



Early Colton. Ten days earlier than Early Harvest. 

 Yellow, rich and juicy; fine for eating and cooking. 

 Young bearer. 



*Early Harvest. Very early, not a good keeper. 

 Small, pale yellow, tender, juicy, subacid. 



*Early Ripe. An early Apple, better in many localities 

 than any other of its class and kind. Resembles Early 

 Harvest, but is a larger, stronger grower, bears younger, 

 and is hardier. A good one to plant. 



Early Strawberry. Striped with deep red, acid. 



*Fourtli of July. Early summer. Medium sized, 

 round or long and slightly ribbed; pale yellow striped 

 with red, tart and good, home or market. 



Fall Pippin. Season Sept. to Oct. Very large, 

 yellow, juicy. Tree vigorous, but does not bear young. 

 Fameuse. (Snow.) Medium to large, deep red on 

 white, flavor fair; fine for home use — fresh or in cooking. 

 Very handsome, sells at high prices in local markets, 

 but not recommended for shipping. 



Flora Bell. Fall. Medium size, golden yellow. 

 Tender, subacid. 



Fallawater. Oct. to Feb. Large, round, greenish yel- 

 low with a dull red cheek, mild flavor. Strong grower, 

 hardy, bears young and every year. In some locali- 

 ties, especially in Pennsylvania ; still a good Apple to 

 plant for home use and local market. 



*Gano. Good keeper. Large, perfect shape, smooth 

 red skin, flat, subacid flavor; fine grained, cottony. 



*Gravenstine. Late fall. Large, yellow with red 

 stripes; flesh white tender, crisp, acid and fragrant. 

 Among the twenty best sorts, regular bearer; vigorous. 



*Grimes* Golden. Sept. to Mar.. Usually rated (at 

 the 40th parallel) as a fall Apple. Good in September, 

 but later on it is even better, and the best markets 

 usually have Grimes' Golden, as far as the supply will 

 permit, through December and January and even 

 February. Keeps without losing any of its crispness or 

 rich flavor. It is medium sized, cylindrical shaped, 

 golden yellow, tender, rich, aromatic, spicy like a peach, 

 subacid, delicious. No better sort could be planted for 

 eating raw or for cooking purposes, and few Apples are 

 more profitable commercially. Quality is too good for 

 any but the best trade, and will justify packing with all 

 care in boxes. Tree is very hardy and productive, and 

 one of the best fillers, as it comes into bearing very 

 early. Blossoms come late in the spring; frost seldom 

 catches them. A quality Apple in every way, a quality 

 orchard tree in growth, health and all characteristics. 

 Grimes' Golden is one of our few best sorts. We have 

 thousands of bearing trees in our own orchards — show- 

 ing what we think of it. 



Golden Sweet. Medium sized, with irregular ridges, 

 yellow, juicy, tender, sweet. Season August. 



There are fifty thousand trees in bearing now, and the firm is realizing large profits. We own a share in this company, 

 among others. See page 2 for their names and the numbers of bearing trees in each. Harrison trees in every orchard — sure.
