Richared Delicious

Rome Beauty 
Has 10.000 Neosho Trees 
“During the past twenty years we 
have bought your trees almost exclu¬ 
sively to the number of 10,000; the 
trees have always been thrifty and 
hardy. 
Our 40 acres of bearing orchard have 
produced 112,000 bu. in the past nine 
years, beginning with its first crop 
in 1926. One block of eight acres of 
your Grimes and Jonathan alternating 
has produced an average of 500 bu. 
per acre for eight consecutive years 
from 1926 to 1933. 
We have displayed apples at the 
Ohio State Pair the past three years, 
with the following results: 
1932— 25 displays and 12 ‘Firsts.’ 
1933— 31 displays and 7 ‘Firsts.’ 
1934— 30 displays and 15 ‘Firsts.’ 
Our apples bring a premium over 
the top price on the Cleveland market. 
I enclose one picture of our grad¬ 
ing crew and another picture of a 19- 
year-old Stayman Winesap tree loaded 
with 20 bu. of extra fancy apples.”
