THE KING FRUITS 
One of the most profitable fruits grown. It is a recognized fact that apple is KING and is the 
most important, because it may be had fresh the year round. By careful selection of varieties in 
regard to time of ripening, apples may be had fresh from the tree from early summer until late fall; 
and from the cellar or storage until next seasons crop is ready to use. A dozen or more trees will 
give you an abundance of fresh fruit from June to November, hundreds of glasses of jelly, jars of 
marmalade and apple butter, gallons of cider and many barrels of winter keepers in the cellar mel¬ 
low, fragrant and tempting. WHAT COULD ONE PLANT THAT WOULD GIVE MORE 
PROFIT OR SATISFACTION? Apples are easy to grow because ours are sturdy upland grown 
trees, stocky trunked and heavy rooted. If set according to instructions which will come with the 
trees, sturdy, vigorous growth and early bearing is assured. Remember Bradley trees are propagated 
from bearing trees of the very highest type.

sery rows. The fruit is very large, has a most won¬ 
derful flavor. Color red striped over yellow. Rip¬ 
ens in July. Anoka resists blight better than any 
known variety. Professor Yeager, Horticulturist, 
says: “The Anoka is in my opinion the most prom¬ 
ising apple we have at present. It points the way 
toward a new type of apple which will not re¬ 
quire so many years to come into bearing.” We 
have the highest confidence in this apple and we 
urge all our customers to give it a trial. See front

ANOKA “The Lindy of the orchard”— 
Lindbergh flew to Paris in a few hours 
—Anoka bears the second year. Just 
think of the enormous saving in time. 
You can now get an apple tree to bear 
at two years old. Plant this year and 
have fruit next year. Anoka has a qual¬ 
ity possessed by no other apple. Prof. 
N. E. Hansen, Veteran Horticulturist of 
South Dakota, and the originator of 
Anoka, writes this interesting story. 
“The Anoka is probably the earliest and 
heaviest bearing apple in the world at 
present time. Trees of the Anoka were 
recently ordered by the government of 
New South Wales, Australia, and the 
trees have been sent to other foreign countries 
as well as all over the United States. Anoka 
apple is attracting world wide attention because 
it bears freely on one year wood. Beginning 
to bear the second year after planting a one 
year old tree, and annually thereafter.” Mr. 
Madsen of Minnesota said: “The Anoka trees 
I planted last year bore six fine apples the same 
summer.” The Baby trees bear fruit in the nur¬
