STANDARD VARIETIES OF APPLES, Continued 
Staynian Winesap. Large; mostly covered with red; crisp and juicy. 
Tree a strong grower. Said to be one of the best Apples for orchard 
planting east of the Mississippi. Ripens in October and ready for use 
soon after picking; keeps late into spring. 
Gallia Beauty. A solid red Rome Beauty sport. It is typical of Rome 
Beauty in every way except that the fruit averages smaller in size. 
York Imperial. A medium to large winter Apple with yellow skin 
shaded red; firm, juicy, subacid. An excellent canning and shipping 
Apple and a good sort for export. October. 
Baldwin. A fine winter Apple. Succeeds well in the Northeastern 
States. 
Rome Beauty. Large, round, winter sort, mottled and striped in dif¬ 
ferent shades of red; the flavor and quality are very fine. It is also a 
good late keeper. 
Red Delicious (sometimes called Starks’ Delicious). An excellent 
winter Apple. Brilliant dark red skin, shading to yellow at the blossom 
end, and growing somewhat in quince shape; very attractive. 
Paradise Winter Sweet. Large; creamy white, rosy cheeked. One of 
the best sweet winter varieties.

used as fillers. 
Northern Spy. Large red winter Apple; crisp and juicy. Does well 
in Northern States. 
Winter Banana. Large; pale yellow, with a pink cheek; fine, mild, 
and aromatic flavor. October to April. 
Winter Rambo. Pale green, striped red; tender and crisp. Fine win¬ 
ter Apple. 
Cortland. Developed by the New York State Experiment Station as 
a cross between McIntosh and Ben Davis, inheriting the good qualities 
of both parents. In addition, its own individual quality has made it a 
strong competitor of McIntosh. It is a beautiful red, larger than Mc¬ 
Intosh, and matures a month later; hangs well to the tree. It keeps 
late in winter and can be handled and shipped like the hardiest of 
market varieties. Has the caliber of a real leader. 
Apple Barrels 
Being located in the great fruit-growing belt of Adams County, f 
manufacture large quantities of Apple Barrels of good quality and car 
furnish them in carload lots or less at reasonable prices. Write fo" 
prices on Apple Barrels. 
We 'ug'g'est that you buy the trees you need as early as possible for there 
likely will be a large increase in prices for next Spring due to the fact that labor 
is going up and at a recent meeting of the Fruit Tree Growers of America it was 
found that there is a big shortage of both apple and peach trees. 
We advise that you place your order now, at the present low prices.
