We are planting tens of thousands of Stayman

are setting almost solid to Stayman. The man who 
plants Stayman plants for quick, sure profit. (See

“ “ Ready for market 
when people are growing hungry for new Apples in 
August and September. Especially popular in New 
England, and in the Boston markets it brings a 
good price. It is worthy of planting in every Apple¬ 
growing section. See illustration on front cover.

dium 
round or with a point; almost solid 
red; flesh white or a little stained, 
tender, crisp, juicy, fine-grained, 
aromatic and very good. Splendid 
keeper, but best in December and 
January. It is one of the most prof¬ 
itable market Apples and always 
brings good prices, especially late 
in the season, when its quality is 
of the best. Tree very hardy and 
vigorous, and bears regular and 
abundant crops. “Wealthy belts” 
are in . the higher districts and 
mountains. Investigate your con¬ 
ditions, and if Wealthy has been 
grown successfully in similar lo¬ 
cations and soils, plant it by all 
means. 
WINESAP. 
Winter. In 
the great 
Apple regions of Maryland, Vir¬ 
ginia, West .Virginia and the Appa¬ 
lachian section the Winesap is the 
Apple that should be planted freely. 
It can be grown in southern Penn¬ 
sylvania, but, as a general rule, we recommend 
Stayman’s Winesap for planting north of Maryland. 
Winesap is of medium size, oblong, smooth; fine, 
dark red skin; the flesh is tinted yellow, tender, 
crisp and juicy. The fruit is firm and keeps well, 
making it a splendid commercial sort. When good 
specimens are packed in an attractive way—in 
boxes or small baskets—Winesap brings the highest 
prices of almost any Apple. The trees are strong 
growers, with an exceptional spread of root; bears 
early, freely and regularly. 
WINTER BANANA. Season from when 
- ——-- picked until mid¬ 
dle of January. “Extra-fancy” is the only term 
which can be used to describe it in looks and quality. 
Large or extra large; golden yellow; firm, fine¬ 
grained, rich, subacid. The name suggests the 
flavor. Tree thrives nearly everywhere. Should be 
packed in all the best ways, and sold soon after 
picking. Bruises speedily develop rot; requires 
careful storage. 
u WINTER RAMBO. Known in some sections as 
the American Seek-no-Further.” Fruit medium to 
large, roundish, with thin skin; color greenish yellow, 
mottled red. Ripens in October in the South; 
November to January in the North. 
In the middle section Rome Beauty is a heavy bearer 
planted Alexander in many of the large commercial 
orchards in the West. Skin is bright yellow, mottled 
and blushed with deep red and marked with con¬ 
spicuous splashes and broad stripes of bright car¬ 
mine; flesh is slightly tinged with yellow, firm, tender, 
juicy, aromatic and of good quality. It keeps 
remarkably well in ordinary storage, and with cold 
storage its season is practically unlimited. Bears 
profuse crops every other year, sometimes annually. 
YELLOW BELLFLOWER. Winter. A handsome 
Apple of large size; flesh fine-grained, crisp, tender, 
juicy and of a most delightful flavor. 
Summer. We consider this 
one of the most promising 
commercial Apples, and one 
TRANSPARENT. 
" — - grow and 
bear as well North as South. Will stand Canadian 
winters as well as Georgia summers. By many this 
is considered the best of all extra-early Apples, and 
comes into market when the demand for summer 
Apples is extra strong; consequently it always 
brings the best prices. For nearby markets, to 
which it can be shipped in fancy baskets or boxes, 
it is one of the most valuable Apples in our list. It
