The Grape for Everybody 
Anoka is the earliest and heaviest bearing apple in the 
world. Anoka has a record of bearingi8 big crops of 
apples from a tree only 10 years old. 8'fcing perfectly 
hardy in all climates, there is a big dejmhd for genuine 
Anoka. Originated in the Dakotas where temperatures 
get down to 35 degrees or more be^V zero. You get 
lots of apples quickly when you plant'Anoka. 
The fruit is large, yellow and r eaA reaked, of excel¬ 
lent quality, juicy, and rich in flavor, unequalled for 
both cooking and eating. Ripens j<Elft.ugust. 
This is the leader of them all. 
Bluish-black in color, juicy, sweet, 
tender, and hardy. Very produc¬ 
tive, often bearing a year after 
they are set out. For grape juice, 
wine, table use. canning, and mar¬ 
ket you can't beat Concord.
