Apples 
The first fruit in importance is the apple. Its period of ripening, unlike that of other 
fruit, extends nearly or quite through the year. By making judicious selections of sum¬ 
mer, autumn and winter sorts, a constant succession can easily be obtained of this 
indispensable fruit for family use.
