THE BIG RED HARALSON APPLE 
The prize origination of the Minnesota Ex¬ 
periment Station. No finer red Winter apple 
has ever been introduced. The outstanding 
feature of the Haralson is its keeping quality— 
keeping in perfect condition until late spring. 
The Haralson is also free from blight, for 
while in the midst of other varieties badly af¬ 
fected by blight, the Haralson stood through it 
all entirely unaffected. 
Best of all, the Haralson has the tendency 
to bear early—Haralson orchards therefore come 
into bearing much more quickly than most other 
varieties. It produces a good size, deep red 
apple of excellent flavor Prices: See below. 
ANOKA—THE SURPRISE APPLE 
Fruit the second season—wouldn’t that sur¬ 
prise you? A real quality apple, early to ripen, 
of fine color and excellent flavor. This sturdy 
little tree bears the second year, and each year 
thereafter, resisting blight and producing a con¬ 
sistent crop of fruit. It is well suited for the 
Northwest. A one-year-old tree at the Agricul¬ 
tural Experiment Station, Fargo, North Dakota, 
bore 26 good apples the second year. No need 
of waiting five to six years to enjoy your own 
fruit. Prices: See below.

into rapid favor as one of _ the most important

inating. An exceptionally fine eating apple, of 
good size, bright red color, and a delicious, aro¬ 
matic flavor. Season, January. Prices: See

WEALTHY- The leading apple for its season 
throughout the Northwest. The fruit is large, 
a beautiful shade of deep red, and the flavor 
excellent. It is one of the best eating apples 
that can be grown in the Northwest and ranks 
with Haralson in quality and commercial value.

exceptionally heavy. Prices: See below.

provement on the Old Duchess of Oldenburg.

fruit is very large, smooth, handsome, turning 
yellow as it matures. This is one of the best

spring. Season from December to March. Every

Greenings. Prices: See below. 
DOLGO—THE LAWN TREE CRAB 
See Special lc Offer Page 33. 
Here is the aristocrat of the Crab Apple fam¬ 
ily. It is not the kind of a Crab we have 
known in days gone by, but a fruit tree that 
should be on every home ground. To begin 
with, it has rare beauty as an ornamental lawn 
tree. It is extremely hardy, having been tested 
out in North and South Dakota, It is not sub¬ 
ject to blight as were the old varieties. Bears, 
an abundance of fruit and no long wait, for 
young baby trees in the nursery row have been 
known to bear fruit the third season. 
Now, best of all—the apple itself is a very 
rich red and jells perfectly even when dead 
ripe. It is one of the finest canning crabs. 
Prices: See below. 
WHITNEY CRAB- This well-known favorite 
hardly needs description. A favorite in the 
home for canning and preserving. Boys like it 
because it is so good to eat off the trees. Fruit 
is of good size—very highly colored—free bear¬ 
er, producing immense crops. You cannot go 
wrong on a few trees of the Whitney Crab.

should be without a few of these delicious gold¬ 
en yellow apples. Good to eat long before other 
varieties are ready. Fruit large, yellow with 
crisp meat and a delicious flavor. Prices: See 
below.

hybrid of bushy habit. Bears fruit the first 
year. Rounder than Sapa, with black-red flesh

ries—pits are small and cherries ideal for pies 
and canning. Trees extra strong and of bearing 
size. Prices: See below.
