IMPROVED VARIETIES of APPLES 
Early Coloring Double Red Sports 
Solid Red Apples bring more money than green ones and cost no more to grow. A large percentage of the crop can be packed, 
as fewer go into the cull pile. Plant the New Double Red Varieties for greater profits. 
Other than the YORKING we offer and recommend the following New Double Red Sports: 
NEW SOLID RED 
DUCHESS 
The Duchess continues to be a popular Fall variety but a 
large percentage of recent Duchess plantings have been of the 
New Double Red variety because it has 100 percent more 
color. The old Duchess is a good one, but is penalized by its 
one great fault— no color. The NEW SOLID RED DUCHESS 
colors early in the season, making possible early marketing, 
before the market is glutted with less desirable varieties. 
Like most of the red sports, NEW RED DUCHESS is 
identically the same as its parent with the exception of the 
color which appears early and in greater quantity. 
NEW RED STAYMAN 
RED AS THE WINESAP AND YET A STAYMAN 
The New Solid Red Stayman is a sport of the Standard 
Stayman. It has all the good qualities of the Stayman and 
none of its bad opes. 
Has 100 percent more color. That means twice as many 
No. 1 Apples and a lot more profit. 
Does not crack on the tree or scald in storage. Even 
these two advantages would more than justify the small differ¬ 
ence in cost. During rainy seasons the Stayman often cracks 
badly. When held late in storage, it scalds, while the New 
Red Stayman does neither. 
Can you imagine a good reason for planting the Standard 
Stayman when the New Red Stayman trees can be had for a 
few cents more per tree ? 
RED ROME 
THE NEW SOLID RED ROME 
A comparison of the old Rome Beauty and the NEW 
RED ROME, when graded by the Northwest Packing Rules: 
ExtraFancy Fancy “C” Grade 
RED ROME . 84% 14% 2% 
Standard Rome . 26% 61% 13% 
No further proof should be necessary to establish the 
advantage of planting New Red Rome in preference to the 
Standard Rome. 
Description of Red Rome: A brilliant solid red Rome 
Beauty that produces over 50 percent more Extra Fancy 
Apples for color grade than the common Rome Beauty. A 
beautiful Apple, it has all the productiveness and other char¬ 
acteristics of the common Rome Beauty, and in addition a 
greatly superior color. The Red Rome will probably, in a 
short time, replace the common Rome Beauty wherever the 
latter is grown. 
The old Rome Beauty has been a leading commercial variety 
in Ohio, West Virginia, and Virginia. It would be planted more 
generally if it were not for its one fault— lack of color. The 
NEW RED ROME is richly colored and is taking its place. 
NEW RED SPY 
A great improvement over the old variety, Northern Spy. 
This new variety is a solid red with no stripes; this makes it 
possible for the grower to pick earlier. This new variety has 
all of the good qualities of the old Northern Spy—but the 
advantage of better color.
