Hardy Northern Qrown Apples 
The Apple will grow on a variety of soils, but seldom 
thrives on very dry sands, or soils saturated with mois' 
ture. A deep, strong, gravelly, marly or clay loam, or a 
strong, sandy loam with gravelly sub-soil, produces the 
best crops, and the highest flavored fruit, as well as trees 
of the greatest longevity. Always dig the holes large 
enough to receive the roots without crowding; if one- 
year trees are planted, cut back to required height to 
form the head; if two'year'old are planted cut back all 
laterals about two-thirds.

Winter Apples 
Blackion * s a new stra * n Jonathan, identical in 
--- shape, size, productiveness, etc., with 
common Jonathan. But Blackjon colors earlier than 
common Jonathan—and colors approximately 98 per 
cent Extra Fancy color, as against approximately only 
23 per cent common Jonathan. Because Blackjon 
colors earlier, it can be picked when in firm, prime 
condition, resulting in a better shipping Apple and 
far better quality. Reaching the early markets it 
brings much better prices. Sold on contract.
