Apples, The King of Fruits 
The best liked and the healthiest fruit that 
grows. A ripe apple picked from one’s own 
trees has a flavor that cannot be forgotten. 
Many varieties do exceedingly well in the 
north and with just a little care will soon grow 
up and bear abundantly. But to avoid disap¬ 
pointment be sure to stick to the hardy kinds 
that we list. Cultivate around your apple trees 
as well as any other planting you make.
