APPLES, continued 
WINESAP. Winter. In the great Apple regions of Maryland, Virginia, West 
Virginia and the Appalachian section the Winesap is the Apple that should 
be planted freely. It can be grown in southern Pennsylvania, but, as a general 
rule, we recommend Stayman 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. 
Winter Paradise (Paradise Winter Sweet). Winter. Color dull green, with 
brownish red flush. Tree vigorous grower. 
WOLF RIVER. Summer. An exceedingly large and handsome Apple, which 
has supplanted Alexander in many of the large commercial orchards in the 
West. Skin is bright yellow, mottled and blushed with deep red and marked 
with conspicuous splashes and broad stripes of bright carmine; 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, large Apple, with crisp, tender, 
juicy flesh. 
Yellow Newtown. Winter. Yellow. 
YELLOW TRANSPARENT. 
Summer. We 
consider this one 
of the best commercial Apples, and one of the few kinds that 
grow and bear as well North as South. Will stand Canadian 
winters as well as Georgia summers. By many this is con¬ 
sidered the best of all extra-early white Apples, and comes 
The one 
Apple that 
will grow 
anywhere 
into market when the demand for summer Apples is extra strong; conse¬ 
quently 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. The fruit is medium to large, cream and yellow; tender, juicy, 
of fine flavor, subacid, fragrant. Trees very young bearers and yield big 
crops. Dwarf growers; prefer thin soil, such as hillsides and upland. 
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.

It is always well to use dynamite when planting trees in heavy soil, or when there is 
hard earth a few feet beneath the surface. It loosens the sub-soil, makes it porous and 
provides room for root grov/th. The loosened soil insures good drainage, and conserves 
moisture for the feeding-roots.
