Hubbardston's Nonsuch. Fine for immediate 

 use in late fall. Large, round, solid, pale red, mild, rich 

 crisp, tender, not dry. Not a long keeper. Strong 

 grower, bears well every year, comes into bearing early. 



Ingram. Large, red, good in flesh and in flavor 

 Tree quick grower and bears unbelievably heavy crops. 

 No dry weather or off-year conditions affect it, and fruit 

 always needs thinning. Not so fine an Apple as those 

 of Grimes' Golden class, but absolutely dependable. 



*Jonathan. Very late keeper which does not get 

 good till January. Medium to large, brilliant red, very 

 highly flavored, juicy, fine grained, tender, mild, sub- 

 acid. Quality is fine for home use and for marketing 

 in large or small quantities. Will keep well without 

 special care, and also stand much handling. Tree long 

 lived, but comes into bearing very young, and produces 

 big crops every year. Jonathan is often the kind to 

 plant in higher Appalachian country. 



Jefferies. Season September. Medium-sized, yel- 

 low and red, tender, juicy, mild subacid. 



Panes Late Keeper. Medium-sized, red on yellow 

 and green, of fair quality. Good chiefly in South. 



King. (Of Tompkins County.) Late keeper under 

 good conditions, but gets mellow and good in October. 

 Very red, with just a tint of yellow. Flesh yellow, crisp 

 and juicy, subacid. One of the largest Apples, and at 

 the same time of the best quality. Tree is a slow grower, 

 subject to disease and breakage, and not a big pro- 

 ducer or it would l^e our leading high-priced Apple. In 

 certain sections. King is beyond doubt the best Apple 

 which can be planted for making money. 



Kinnard's Choice. Dark red, medium size, tender, 

 good flavor, keeping till March. Bears young. 



Limbertwig. Large, dark red, aromatic, rich sub- 

 acid. Tree productive, season February to April, 

 especially adapted to the South. 



Liveland Raspberry. Medium -sized, very hand- 

 some yellow and red. Tree early bearer. Season Sep- 

 tember-November. 



Lawver. Long keeper, large, dark red, subacid. 



Lankford. Medium size, red. crisp, subacid. 



Longfield. Good keeper. Medium size, red subacid. 



Maiden's Blush. Fall and winter. Medium size, 

 rich light-yellow, with the sun side creamy, turning to 

 a shiny red. Flesh tender, mellow, acid, rather tart. 

 A quality Apple in every sense of the word, and almost 

 up to Yellow Newtown in looks and in grade. Good 

 enough to pack in the most careful manner. Flesh white, 

 even dried, but too good to dry. A good oup to plant. 



^Mammoth Black Twig. (Paragon.) Very long 

 keeper, of great value. Red, large, round, tender, crisp, 

 subacid, excellent quality in every way. Vigorous 

 and healthy, young bearer, yields big crops every year. 

 Dependable and valuable and would be classed among 

 the best half dozen. In Eastern mountain localities 

 will many times be about the best commercial sort. 



*McIntosh Red. A Canadian Apple, keeps long, 

 but is mellow and good to use almost from the time 

 it is picked till the next crop comes. Requires no 

 special storage to .be kept like fresh. Fruit tender, 

 juicy and subacid. Quick and spreading grower; long- 

 lived; bears big crops. Mcintosh Red is the Apple now 

 making Montana's Bitter Root Valley famous. There, 

 as well as in New England, New York and Michigan, 

 its high quality and attractive appearance put it in 

 the lead. It is extra good. 



Missouri Pippin. Poor keeper; medium size; red. 

 Myrick. Nov. and Dec. No other fall Apple 

 approaches it in appearance. Longer than round; 

 medium to large; pink on a yellow background; fine- 

 grained, juicy, subacid and good quality. 



Nero. Medium-sized; good red; good quality; firm. 

 One of the longest keepers. Tree hardy, healthy and 

 very big. Mellows in spring and summer. Best when 

 stored for use just before early Apples come. 



*Northwestern Greening. Oct. to Jan. Round, 

 very large, greenish yellow; fine for eating raw; splendid 

 keeper; ships well. Should not form a main part of a 

 commercial orchard because crops are not so certain 

 to be big every year as with other standard sorts, due 

 to blossoming early, and other reasons. Extremely 

 hardy, vigorous; bears very young. Specially good 

 in Middle Atlantic and New England states. Sells for 

 I3.50 per barrel where York Imperial brings I2.75 in 

 1910. Fine packed in boxes. Part of a crop Northwestern 

 Greening will help to sell the whole for more money. 



*Northern Spy. Old stand-by sort from West Vir- 

 ginia north. Large, bright, light red, juicy, rich; good 

 flavor. Tree very healthy, strong-growing, rugged. 

 Blossoms very late, escaping frosts. Slow coming into 

 bearing — which is the only thing which keeps it from 

 ranking with the most important commercial varieties. 

 Opalescent. Keeps well under favorable condi- 

 tions, but best when marketed at the same time as 

 York Imperial. Large or very large; yellow and red, 

 shiny when polished; flesh yellow, tender and full of 

 juice. Quality very good, especially for cooking. Does 

 fine in certain localities. 



Two-year Dwarf Grimes' Golden apple trees. These will bear a peck of apples eacn, next year, and will make splendid quick- 

 bearing fillers between permanent standard orchard trees. We plant them 12 feet apart. Fillers must be cut out in about 12 years.
