THE COE CONVERSE S- EDWARDS CO. 
Haralson. Originated and introduced by the Minnesota 
State Fruit Breeding Farm. This is an Apple that can 
be kept in an ordinary cellar (not a furnace room) until 
spring. It has the size, color, quality and keeping quali¬ 
ties that are demanded in a commercial variety. The tree 
is hardy, healthy, productive, and comes into bearing 
early. 
Jonathan. Medium size, rich, tender, juicy, red Apple of 
extra quality. Tree is a slender grower, very productive. 
One of the best for table or market, but like Grimes 
Golden should not be planted in the extreme North. 
November to March. 
Macoun. This variety is of the McIntosh type, a month 
or more later than that old standard variety, which it 
resembles in size and shape. The color is a little darker 
red with a heavy bloom. The flesh is white, tender, and 
of fine quality. In fact, it is a better, longer keeping 
McIntosh. 
Northwestern Greening. Originated in Northern Wiscon¬ 
sin. Large, nearly round, very regular Apple. The 
smooth surface is often green, but when fully ripe is 
yellow. The rather coarse flesh is yellow, juicy, sub-acid. 
Good quality. January to May. 
Pewaukee. Seedling of Duchess. Large; bright yellow 
striped and splashed with dark red. Flesh white, tender, 
juicy, sub-acid. Tree vigorous and productive. January 
to March. 
Secor. A seedling of a cross between the Jonathan and 
Salome, originating in Iowa. The tree is a good grower, 
the fruit well colored, larger than the Jonathan, and a 
good keeper of fine quality. 
Salome. We consider this one of our best late keeping 
Winter Apples. Tree is a good grower, hardy and pro¬ 
ductive. The fruit is medium size, good quality; color 
yellow overlaid with red. Hangs well on tree. Decem¬ 
ber to March. 
Tolman’s Sweet. Medium size; pale whitish yellow slightly 
tinged with red. Flesh firm, rich and very sweet. Tree 
a fine grower, hardy and productive. November to April.

Windsor. Of Wisconsin origin. Won the highest award 
at the Paris Exposition. Medium to large, becoming 
nearly red when fully ripe. Flesh pale yellow, fine 
grained, and of excellent quality. Early and prolific 
bearer; December, March. 
Crab Apples 
Crab Apples succeed equally well in all sections for they 
are very hardy growers. They usually bear the second 
season after planting. For cider, preserving and jellies the 
Crab Apples are invaluable, and some of the improved 
sorts are excellent for eating. The trees are highly orna¬ 
mental, both in blossom and in fruit. 
Florence. Fruit medium sized, uniform in shape. Color 
yellowish white, overpread with bright pinkish red. 
Flesh tender, juicy, brisk and sub-acid. Tree is a mod¬ 
erately vigorous grower, bears young and is productive. 
This is a good variety to plant in place of Transcendent, 
which is subject to blight. 
Hyslop. A hardy, good keeping variety. Fruit produced 
in clusters. Good for cooking and other purposes. Dark 
red, heavy bloom. 
Sweet Russet. Large, round and conical; green russet with 
a faint blush. Very rich and sweet. One of the best 
for eating and cooking. August and September. 
Whitney No. 20. Fruits are large, averaging V /2 to 2 
inches in diameter. Skin smooth, glossy green, striped 
and splashed with carmine. Flesh is firm, juicy and pleas¬ 
antly flavored. Ripens the latter part of August. Tree 
is a great bearer and very hardy. Its dark green, glossy 
foliage makes it ornamental as well as useful. 
Peaches 
Owing to the severe winter weather, we cannot recom¬ 
mend planting Peaches in Wisconsin. However, we can 
supply the following to those who wish to include Peaches 
in their plantings. 
Bokhara Champion Elberta Crawford’s Early
