One of the most desirable varieties for the North and Northwest. 
BENONI — This old variety is still a great favorite for an early apple; they 
will bring a good price when other apples are a drug on the market. Tree

best for dessert. August.

for market or domestic 
use; last of August and 
September.

variety Is much superior 
and ten days earlier than 
Early Harvest. Tree per- 
fectly hardy, good grower, 
and abundant bearer. Fl«sh 
white, juicy and rich; best 
quality for cooking and 
eating. 
LIVELAND — This we obtain- 
ed at our experiment sta- 
tion at Ames under the 
name Rubets, but we find 
several other nurseries are 
propagating It under the 
name Liveland Raspberry; 
no matter which is correct, 
i » It is our very best and 
Duchess of Oldenburg;. earliest summer apple, will 
keep in perfect condition longer than any early apple we have knowledge of.

Russian origin, rare and valuable.
