CRAB APPLES. 



A few years ago crab apples were regarded fit only for cider, preserves and jelly, but there are varieties 

 now that command a good price on the market for dessert purposes. Besides being useful, they are also 

 very ornamental when in bloom, and also when loaded with their highly colored fruit. 



Transcendent Crab — Fruit large for its class;

 grower and productive. September.

 or cooking. Tree hardy and free from blight; im- 

 mensely productive. A great acquisition.

 originated in Minnesota. Earlier than the Trancend- 

 ent ; very ornamental as well as a fine fruit ; bears in 

 profusion every year. September and October.

 Gentlemen: — I have been planting your trees for twelve years- 

 Have planted more than forty thousand (40,000) trees: they have 

 proven to my entire satisfaction. Have 100 Reeves' Favorite 5-year-

 are from your trees, and they are extra good and selling well.
