Red Beitigheimer Th e tree of this variety grows large and moderately 
vigorous, being of upright spreading habit. 
The fruit is very large and of uniform shape, being round and inclined 
to conic. Skin is thick and smooth, of a pale yellow color washed with a 
pinkish red overspread with a darker red. Flesh is almost white, crisp and 
quite* coarse and possesses a fairly good flavor. 
This variety, owing to its immense size and beauty is a favorite for decora¬ 
tive and exhibition purposes. Ripens latter part of September. 
Red June The J une » originated in South Carolina, is another of the 
early summer varieties. Although it has the reputation of being 
a very good apple it has not been planted to any great extent commercially. 
The tree is a moderate grower, of spreading habit and as it attains age it 
usually is a reliable bearer. 
The fruit is rather small, roundish and uniform, having a tender, smooth 
glossy skin, of pale yellow or greenish overspread with a deep red, sometimes 
very dark on the exposed cheek. Some specimens are entirely red with rather 
numerous dots, which are very small and light. The flesh is white, tender, 
juicy and of a rich sub-acid flavor. 
It is particularly adapted to the interior valleys and foothill sections, al¬ 
though, for home use, it is approved in most all localities. Used principally 
as a dessert fruit. Ripens in July. 
Rhode Island Greening This one pf the oldest and most widely 
known and highly prized varieties of apples 
and certainly needs no introduction to anyone. 
The tree is large and vigorous; makes a dense growth, is wide, spreading and 
somewhat drooping. This tendency requires the tree to be headed somewhat 
higher than the average tree and requires careful pruning to scure the best 
results. This variety always repays for any trouble taken to have it right. 
The fruit is large to very large and uniform both as to size and shape, with 
a fairly thick, tough, smooth skin of greenish color turning to yellow when 
fully ripe. The flesh is yellowish, firm but tender, juicy and rich and exceed¬ 
ingly good in quality. 
This variety is good for all purposes and is recommended for all sections. 
If placed in storage as soon as picked it keeps remarkably well. Ripens in 
October.

Rome Beauty This variety is well known to apple growers as a very 
hardy and vigorous tree, being of upright habit, a late 
bloomer and nearly always a sure cropper. It attains medium size and while 
upright at first, becomes spreading with age. 
The fruit averages above medium size and is quite uniform both in size and 
shape which is roundish to slightly oblong. The skin is thick, tough, and 
smooth, which makes it a very valuable apple for shipping and storage pur¬ 
poses. It is of a greenish yellow shade, mottled with bright red, sometimes 
almost solid red on the exposed cheek, often striped with a darker red and
