Haralson 
Apples 
T HESE trees are all 3 years old and are of the 
varieties that we consider best for our climate. 
We graft our own apples on roots that we 
grow ourselves, which assures you of the hardiest 
stock available. Our apples have withstood the 
drought the last two or three years, right alongside 
of trees that were on tender roots that died out. 
We have only a limited supply of fruit trees this 
year and we urge our customers to place their orders 
early to avoid disappointment. Fruit plants, especial ly 
apples and plums, are very scarce throughout the 
country and there is certain to be a shortage before 
the season is far advanced. 
Prices of all Apple and Crab Apple trees, except 
Anoka, Haralson, and Minn. No. 423: 5 to 7 ft., 
$1.00 each,- $8.50 per 10. 4 to 6 ft., 75c each; 
$6.65 per 10. 
*Note: The ten rate applies only when ordering 
10 or more of a variety and size. 
//Anoka —One of the earliest and heaviest bear¬ 
ing apples grown today. Fruit is large, with 
wonderful flavor. Color: red striped over yel¬ 
low. Bears very young; as a matter of fact, many of 
the trees that we offer, had fruit on last year. 5 to 7 
ft., $1.25 each; $11.00 per 1 0. 4 to 6 ft., $1.00 
each; $9.00 per 10. 
/DUCHESS —Season, July and August. A vigorous 
growing, hardy tree and heavy bearer. Fruit is 
large, greenish yellow, striped with red. This is 
the standard early Apple for the Northwest. 
ERICKSON —This apple was originated at Aitkin, 
Minnesota, a few years ago and is proving a real 
success as an early apple. The fruit which ripens 
about the same time as the Duchess, is very large 
and a deep red in color. The quality cannot be 
surpassed in an apple of this season. 
HARALSON —This new variety, which was 
originated at the Minnesota State Fruit Breeding 
Farm a few years ago, fills a long-felt want among 
apple growers. The fruit is about the same size 
and color as Wealthy, but later in season of 
ripening. A REAL WINTER KEEPER. Unlike the 
Wealthy, the fruit hangs to the tree until picked. 
The tree grows very symmetrical and is perfectly 
hardy in Minnesota. 5 to 7 ft., $1.25 each; 
$11.00 per 10. 4 to 6 ft., $1.00 each; $9.00 
per 10.
