which means that, with proper care—and it needs no special 
attention or conditions of storage—you can have apples for sale 
or for use about the home McIntosh is slightly acid, mellow, 
and fit for use from the time of picking until early the follow¬ 
ing year. 
AN EARLY BEARER 
You won’t be forced to wait many years for results, as McIn¬ 
tosh usually bears very early. The early-bearing varieties are 
extremely desirable for fillers, and McIntosh is no exception. 
You can get. possibly, ten or twelve crops from the trees before 
they have to be removed. It is the only way to keep your ground 
working all the time, and it means a profit in your pocket which 
otherwise wouldn't be there. 
Many apples which are fine when picked reach the market in 
such poor condition that it is almost impossible to get a good 
price for them. Some of this trouble is due to the packing, but 
sometimes it is due to the shape of the apple. McIntosh packs 
well, and sells well when packed in boxes, because of its attract¬ 
ive size and color. 
This splendid apple may be grown from New Brunswick to 
Maryland. Growers in New' York and MicMgan have long grown 
it for big profits, and in all high and cold territory it has been 
accepted as one of the greatest profit-makers. Ask any experi¬ 
enced apple grower, if you are unacquainted with the variety, 
and he will praise it as highly as we do. 
At prices quoted in this catalogue trees, shrubs, or plants are de¬ 
livered to railroad or express companies at Berlin, without extra charge
