HARDY FRUITS FOR NORTHERN PLANTERS 
25 
DANIELS HARDY APPLES 
Daniels apple list comprises only the very best 
—those most widely and officially approved of— 
those really suited to the Northwest. Every one 
is important in its season, whether it be Summer, 
Fall or Winter. You’ll find the three newer va¬ 
rieties we list—Daniels Red Duchess, Dolgo, and 
Haralson—tremendously worth while; ones you 
can ill afford to be without. 
Our trees are well grown, with large roots and 
strong two-year, well-branched tops—the best size 
for planting here in the middle west. 
At our new low prices, this is the year to plant 
apples freely.

Daniels Red Duchess 
A Remarkable Early Red Apple. An Improved 
Bud Sport of the Duchess of Oldenburg 
The Daniels Red Duchess is an early red apple 
that seems destined to entirely displace the old 
Duchess of Oldenburg. It possesses all of the 
good qualities of the older variety and in addition 
that all-important, price-commanding quality of 
high red color. Coming as it does at a season 
when there is a dearth of red apples on the mar¬ 
ket, it has proven itself a commercial variety of 
exceptional value. 
For the past 18 years it has been under the 
observation of the staff of the Division of Horti¬ 
culture at University Farm. Prof. W. H. Aider- 
man, Chief of the Division, says: “It is unques¬ 
tionably the most highly colored sport of the 
Duchess of Oldenburg known to be in existence. 
I can see no reason why commercial growers 
should continue to plant Duchess when this new 
sport is available in quantities to supply the de¬ 
mand.” 
RED DELICIOUS —We are adding this variety 
to our list this year for use south of Twin City 
area. A splendid eating apple. High quality. 
Colors earlier and more deeply, otherwise iden¬ 
tical with ordinary Delicious. 
Dolgo 
The most beautiful of all apple trees as well as 
the finest jelly crab known. The fruit is bright 
red, hangs in clusters, and is oblong in shape. 
Bears very early. Heavy producer. The one best 
crab-apple to plant for home or market use. 
Prices: 3-4 feet, 60c each, $6.00 dozen; 4-S feet, 
75c each, $7.50 dozen; 5-6 feet, $1.00 each, $10.00 
dozen. 
Haralson 
The Best Hardy Winter Apple 
Haralson is Minnesota’s only hardy, high qual¬ 
ity, red, winter eating apple that will keep until 
late spring in ordinary storage. The Northwest’s 
best winter apple. 
The tree is an upright grower with strong, wide 
angle crotch and branching system. It is a vigor¬ 
ous tree, very productive and resistant to fire 
blight. The fruit is about the size of a Wealthy, 
is borne at an early age, and hangs well to the 
tree until picked. The fruit is an attractive red in 
color and good in quality. Entirely hardy. No 
home or commercial orchard is complete without 
Haralson. Season, January to April.

This photo reproduced from the Journal 
Series Paper No. 89, Minnesota Agricultural 
Experiment Station, shows the marked contrast 
between the even dark color of the DANIELS 
RED DUCHESS and the streaked and 
splotched red and green of the ordinary va¬ 
riety. 
ing this variety, says: “It leaves nothing to be 
desired as a cooking apple and is a pleasant des¬ 
sert fruit during middle and late winter.” Haral¬ 
son is now generally accepted as the Northwest’s 
best hardy, red winter apple. Plant it freely. 
We recommend the use of Haralson as a stock 
for topworking in preference to Hibernal or Vir¬ 
ginia Crab. 
McINTOSH. Brilliant deep red, deliciously fla¬ 
vored, crisp, snow-white flesh. Pleasant aroma. 
Keeps until January. One of the finest apples 
grown. 
NORTHWESTERN GREENING. The best and 
longest keeping of the Greenings. Fine cooking 
apple. Keeps until Spring. 
WEALTHY, The best market and most popular 
home orchard variety. The Northwest’s one 
best apple. Keeps until January. 
WHITNEY CRAB. Good color. Crisp flesh and 
immensely pleasant flavor. Strong upright 
grower. One of the finest crabs for eating. 
Extra Large—Specially Selected 
Apple Trees 
For several years we have offered an extra large, bearing 
age plum tree—a grade which has been our heaviest sell¬ 
ing size. We are glad to be able to offer you this year a 
corresponding grade of apple trees—especially selected, large 
well formed, perfectly balanced trees—specimens that are 
worth far more than the slight extra price we ask. You’ll 
be more than delighted with them I
