3an3.113. Apple. Allow me to introduce you to a friend of mine. Perhaps you are already acquainted with my 
- friend, but I fear you are not. 
"What is the name of this friend?" 
My friend is an apple and his name is Banana apple. 
I have known this friend for many years.- The longer I know him the better I like him. He is to be trusted. I have placed 
dependence upon him and have never found him lacking. One reason why I fear you are not acquainted with this friend is 
that it takes many years for a friend to make himself known at his beet, and it is the same way with apples. They attract 
you at first glance, but the longer you know them the better you appreciate their good qualities. The qualifications of Banana 
apple are as follows: It is a good grower and abundant bearer. It bears early after planting. The fruit is beautiful and of the 
highest quality. It is the longest keeper I have among a long list of varieties. It has banana flavor, hence its name.
