YORK IMPERIAL 



Winter. Greenish yellow, overlaid with red stripes. 

 Flesh juicy, slightly coarse. Medium size. 



. York Imperial has been planted from the East to the 

 West, and, so far as we have heard, has never failed to 

 give satisfaction. 



The shape is chunky and somewhat irregular, which 

 makes it a little difficult to pack, and renders it unsuit- 

 able for paring machines, but you'll find many people — 

 lots of them orchardis+s — planting the York Imperial year 

 after year. There are good reasons for this. First of all. 



YORK IMPERIAL KEEPS WELL 



and if properly stored will be in good condition late next 

 spring ; can be laid away in the ordinary cellar, and, if 

 it is handled right, will be in good shape until late May. 

 Unlike many winter apples, York Imperial can be ripened 

 shortly after picking if not stored to prevent it. 



The York Imperial is largely used for export, and has 

 come into fine favor with foreign trade. Shipments 

 abroad are snapped up at good prices. Very productive.
