TT the ONE APPLE THAT 
1 CllliW 1 rdllapcirdll WILL GROW ANYWHERE 
This variety is one of the few kinds that will grow and bear well in the South 
as well as in the North. _ It stands with equal vigor the summers of Georgia and 
the severe Canadian winters. By many growers Yellow Transparent is con¬ 
sidered the best of all extra-early Apples, and comes into the market when the 
demand for summer Apples is extra strong; consequently it always brings the 
best pricers. _ 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 bruises readily and 
must be handled with extra care. The fruit is medium to large in size, with 
cream and yellow skin and white flesh. The flavor is superb, slightly acid. 
The trees are hardy, rather dwarf growers, begin to bear when young, and pro¬ 
duce nearly every season; seem to prefer thin soils, like hillsides and uplands. 
YORK IMPERIAL. Winter. Medium sized, round, irregular, greenish 
yellow overlaid with bright red stripes; flesh tender, firm, crisp, juicy. Often 
exported and sold. It has the advantage of mellowing in time for use soon 
after picking if not stored to prevent it. Tree is a vigorous grower, strong and 
healthy, and an unusually heavy bearer.
