plant. They will come into bearing in 7 to 12 years. Our 1-year trees are 
still youngsters. They are a wise and economical buy for the grower who can 
spend quite a little time with his orchard and likes to grow and develop his own 
stock from the start.

EARLY APPLES 
Leading Summer Sorts 
Listed in Order of Ripening 
YELLOW TRANSPARENT 
287 PJ 10001—Yellow Transparent gives you 
the first really good apples of the season—big 
smooth skinned, almost clear white, but turn¬ 
ing pale yellow when ripe. How good they do 
taste —pure white flesh, smooth, juicy, and 
just acid enough for grand sauce and pie. 
Very hardy, suitable for northern sections. 
EARLY HARVEST 
287 PJ 10002—For more than a hundred 
years Early Harvest has been the prize early 
cooking Apple for most of America. Medium 
large, bright yellow, with crisp white flesh of 
delightful fresh flavor. Your Early Harvest 
trees come into bearing young, are good pol- 
| linizers and most reliable for regular harvests. 
One of the very best home orchard trees. 
AUTUMN APPLES 
Crisp and Tangy 
Listed in Order of Ripening 
mcintosh 
287 PJ 10013—There are many variants of 
this strain, and Garden Club offers the 
choicest—a handsome, medium to large 
Apple, bright yellow almost covered with 
brilliant solid crimson. Flesh is very white, 
firm and sparkling. Your trees will be fairly 
tall, with graceful spreading head, exceed¬ 
ingly hardy and disease resistant. 
BALDWIN 
287 PJ 10007—This good old reliable has 
earned its long popularity. Big, bright red 
Apples of incomparably good flavor, they 
store so well that you’ll still be enjoying them 
in April. No variety yields bigger crops, and 
none is more dependable. Every home 
orchard should have its Baldwins. 
GRIMES GOLDEN 
287 PJ 10004—Many call it the best of all 
the yellows. It is in the “fancy dessert” 
class, ranking with Delicious and Jonathan. 
Medium to large, bright golden yellow with 
pink cheek; Grimes has a particularly nice 
flavor, tantalizingly tart and cidery.. The 
tree is strong and vigorous and Garden Club 
strain is disease resistant. 
JONATHAN 
287 PJ 10005—No orchard is complete with¬ 
out its Jonathans—those big, bright red 
apples, so firm, so crisp, so sweet and so grand 
to store for winter eating. The tree comes 
into bearing quite young, is surprisingly long 
lived, and never fails you even in “bad” 
years. Commercial growers consider Jona¬ 
than one of the most profitable sorts because 
it is always in sharp demand. 
BEST WINTER APPLES 
For Eating and Keeping 
Listed in Order of Ripening 
RED ROME BEAUTY 
287 PJ 10009—Good cooks know this as the 
best one of all for baking—a large, round 
fruit, yellow, mottled in varying shades of 
red. It is firm and solid with a rather tough 
skin. It is a fine keeper which commercial 
growers plan for December to March markets. 
STAYMAN'S WINESAP 
287 PJ 10008—Acclaimed the best of those 
good Apples, the Winesaps. It is a splendid 
early winter keeper, storing its delightful, 
tangy flavor and cidery juice far into the 
season. Stayman’s is the largest of the Wine- 
saps, bright red striped and splashed deep 
crimson; with firm, sparkling flesh toning 
toward yellow. 
EXTRA RED DELICIOUS 
287 PJ 10006—This new, finer Delicious in¬ 
herits the huge size and distinctive form of 
its parent, but is far lovelier in color—rich, 
bright glorious red and much more appealing 
in flavor. It colors up early in the orchard 
and may be picked and boxed before actually 
ripe, reaching the market in prime condition 
to take top prices. 
YELLOW DELICIOUS 
287 PJ 10017—Probably the best late keeper 
of all the winter Apples. Yellow Delicious 
has the attractive blocky form of its family, 
but is waxy golden yellow in color, with firm, 
white flesh of spicy, aromatic goodness. It is 
decidedly in the “fancy” class, a real treasure 
for the family that likes good Apples the 
whole winter through. And for the money 
making orchard, it is a very profitable tree. 
It has a steady, high price market. 
CRABAPPLES FOR THE LITTLE ORCHARD 
HYSLOP 
DUCHESS 
287 PJ 10003—Duchess still holds first place 
against all comers as the best of the “mid¬ 
summer” apples. Big, smooth, well formed 
i fruits, bright yellow striped with red—pure 
white flesh, crisp, delicious cidery—a grand 
apple for eating or cooking. Duchess is a 
good choice for the home orchard; it is ex¬ 
ceptionally hardy, may be planted close, 
! comes into bearing young and gives big crops 
every season. 
WEALTHY 
287 PJ 10012—The most hardy, dependable 
and widely planted of the late summer 
Apples. Glorious bright red, slightly striped, 
with fresh juicy white flesh of cidery tang. 
Your Wealthy trees grow strong and upright, 
begin bearing while young, and give you a 
| long season of delicious, first quality fruit. 
Wealthy is very hardy, a good choice for 
northern planting. 
WHITNEY 
287 PJ 10021—One of the largest Crabs 
grown, glossy green, splashed carmine, 
with crisp firm greenish flesh and a tart 
flavor that makes marvelous white cider. 
Whitney ripens in August and good cooks 
use these tasty little apples to add zest to 
practically all other jellies. 
TRANSCENDENT 
287 PJ 10023—This September Crab is 
best planted in yard or small garden well 
away from other apple trees. Fruit is 
medium to large, brownish vellow with 
carmine blush. Flesh is yellowish, firm 
and fine. This is the sort for those who 
like their Apples tart. 
287 PJ 10022—Hyslop is the real eating 
Crab—round, deep red with blue or 
purplish bloom and firm flesh almost 
golden yellow. The Apples are borne in 
clusters. Well formed and well foliaged. 
Hyslop is a good crab to plant in the 
lawn or in the garden. 
DOLGA 
287 PJ 10020—Small, brilliantly red, 
these late Crabs are usually planted for 
jelly, pickling and spiced apples. Like 
the other Crabs, Dolga is of sturdy, 
stocky growth, excellent as a windbreak 
or decorative tree. It is a great bouquet 
of blossoms in early spring.
