The apples for the millions — they fill the barrels 
APPLES 
The apple is the king of fruits. It is a tonic as well as a nutrient, and one of the cheapest 
and most wholesome foods. There's a lot of truth in the old saying, "An apple a day keeps 
the doctor away." 
Apple, trees will grow wherever corn can 
be raised — in fact, there isn't a state in the 
Union, with one possible exception, where 
some variety of apple will not thrive. 
No agricultural investment is safer or 
more productive in profits than a good apple 
orchard, favorably located and well managed. 
The demand for fine fruit increases more 
rapidly than the supply. It is only the poor 
fruit — such as should never be shipped — 
that begs for a market. 
Every home garden and farm should 
have at least a few apple trees of summer, 
fall, and winter varieties. They will give 
satisfaction far beyond the time, labor, and 
money required. 
APPLE TABLE 
This condensed tabic makes it easier to select varieties for your particular requirements and to choose an assortment that will give you 
apples the year round if you have a cool cellar. Wint&r varieties are picked when mature, but before they are ripe enough to eai. Maturity can 
be told by the changing from a hard dead green colo' to warmer reds and yellows, by the seeds turning brown, and by the readiness with which 
the stem separates frcm the twig.
