DELAWARE WINTER APPLE.—Price, Large Trees, 75c.; One Year Old Trees by Mail, 30c.,

William Parry writes under date of 23rd 
July : “We find the 'Delaware Winter Apple 
in good condition, beautiful red color, large 
size and fine quality; rich, pleasant flavor, 
having kept perfectly since last fall until 
now—past the middle of July. It will make 
a valuable market variety ; very solid, firm, 
and good shipper. ’ ’ 
Messrs. Rakestraw & Pyle write, under 
date of July 25th : “ The fruit of Delaware 
Winter Apple came to hand to-day in per¬ 
fect condition. From all appearances we 
think it would keep at least another month. 
We found the quality good—a mild, agree¬ 
able sub-acid and juicy apple. One would 
naturally suppose that an apple of 1886 would 
be withered and have lost all of its former 
uatural flavor after being kept in an ordinary 
cellar more than nine months. For that 
part of the United States south of the 41st 
parallel the Delaware winter ought to be¬ 
come as popular as the Baldwin or Greening 
for our northern districts. What more 
could be desired ? Fine size, beautiful color, 
good quality, an early and abundant bearer; 
fruit raised on the 39th parallel and keeping 
in fine condition until this season of the 
year. ’ ’ 
Mr. J. E. Hendrickson, one of the largest 
dealers in fruit in Philadelphia, writes,under 
date of 22d July“I have to-day seen and 
eaten specimens of the Delaware Winter 
Apple grown by Mr. Wm. P. Corsa in 1886 ; 
in rich, juicy quality, and crispiest )f flesh, 
I find it more rich and quite as toothsome as 
the best of even fresh apples. I am satisfied 
that its superior as a high-colored, rich, long- 
keeping apple has never been in this market. 
On the commercial side of this apple I tor- 
see a promising future as a market fruit.” 
Terms, Payments In Advance. 
This is the ordinary rule of nurserymen, 
and is a reasonable one. We have been years 
in building up a business, and are known to 
the public. Moreover, our success depends 
on fair and careful dealing. We believe that 
it depends still more on liberal dealing, and 
our old patrons will testify that we have con¬ 
sulted their interests as truly as our own. It 
is our wish and intention that no one shall 
suffer loss in their transaction with us. We 
prefer taking a liberal course with low prices, 
to doing a credit business, assured that it is 
the better course for both parties. 
Most planters order too many varieties of 
fruits. They select long lists because they 
do not know what to order. If you leave the 
selection to our Charles A. Green he will 
. give you the benefit of his experience. Says 
a recent letter : “I buy our trees of you be¬ 
cause I know 1 they will be true to name.” 
Notice that we have in mailing sizes, 
peach, plum, cherry, apricot, nectarines and 
quinces, but no pear trees small enough to 
mail. Grape vines and berry plants can be 
mailed anywhere.
