Season, September to January. This variety 
we consider the most valuable of all the market 
apples and for home use. The tree is excep¬

summer apples, producing immense crops an¬ 
nually, and we believe it is the most valuable 
apple today for the small or the 
chard. Fruit above medium to 
color, underlaid with pale yel¬ 
low, blushed, marked 
with stripes and 
splashes of

Another of Professor Hansen’s. It is an ob¬ 
long crab of real beauty and peculiar lemon-acid 
flavor—entirely different from any other crab and 
far superior to any other crab for jellies; produc¬ 
ing a transparent bright-red jelly of high quality. 
The color is a beautiful red, solid over the 
entire fruit. The tree is a thing of beauty at 
blooming time with its large white flowers and 
later with its ropes of large dark-red fruit. At 
a distance, when the crabs are maturing, the 
tree appears to be covered with beautiful flowers. 
The heaviest bearing crab apple we have, and 
one of the best. First degree of hardiness.
