THE DANIELS NURSERY, INC. 
CORTLAND —A seedling of McIntosh that 
may even surpass its well known parent in 
popularity. 
It really is an “Improved McIntosh.’’ Almost 
identical in shape, taste and flesh characteristics. 
Ripens a little later, keeps longer; slightly larger 
and brighter in color. Fruit hangs on tree somewhat 
better, too. Behavior of Cortland the past few years 
indicates that it may he somewhat hardier in our 
climate than its McIntosh parent. 
RED DELICIOUS— Colors earlier and a far 
deeper red than the ordinary Delicious, of 
which this is a bud sport. Cannot be too 
highly praised. Large, deep luscious red— 
flesh of splendid texture and of the finest quality. 
November to April. 
DANIELS RED DUCHESS 
Cortland 
One of the best winter keepers. Season 
Daniels Red Duchess 
A remarkable early red ap¬ 
ple. An improved bud sport of the Duchess of Olden¬ 
burg. 
The Daniels Red Duchess is an early red apple that seems des¬ 
tined to entirely displace the old Duchess of Oldenburg. It possesses 
all of the good qualities of the older variety and in addition that 
all important, price commanding quality of high red color. Coming 
as it does at a season when there is a dearth of red apples on the 
market, it has proven itself a commercial variety of exceptional 
value. 
For the past 20 years it has been under the observation of the 
staff of the Division of Horticulture at University Farm. Professor 
W. H. Alderman, Chief of the Division, says: “It is unquestionably 
the most highly colored sport of the Duchess of Oldenburg known 
to be in existence. I can see no reason why commercial growers 
should continue to plant Duchess when this new sport is available 
in quantities to supply the demand.’’ Recommended by the Minne¬ 
sota State Horticultural Society in place of the ordinary Duchess. 
Ever since we introduced the variety—ten years ago—it has 
proven exceedingly popular. It bears early, abundantly and regu¬ 
larly, frequently fruiting in the nursery row. For early apple 
satisfaction and profit plant Daniels Red Duchess. 
ANOKA —A popular new variety famed for 
its early bearing habit and extreme hardi¬ 
ness. 
Trees usually bear the year after planting. Fruits 
early in the season, medium size and of fair quality. 
Tree so hardy that it can be grown under the most 
trying conditions that any apple will endure. 
DOLGO CRAB —Dolgo is generally conceded 
to be the most beautiful of all apple trees. 
It is heavily laden with large white flowers 
at blossom time, and later the brilliant red 
fruit is borne freely in beautiful rope-like 
clusters, among dense foliage of vivid, 
dark green. The fruit is oblong in shape, 
of rare beauty and has a very unusual lem- 
on-like flavor. Far superior to other crabs 
for jellies, producing a transparent bright 
red jelly of high quality. Will jell even 
when dead ripe. In praising Dolgo the 
Country Gentleman says: “This variety is 
the most striking in appearance of any of 
the newer crabs tested at the Ohio sta¬ 
tion. ’ ’ When in full bloom the tree is 
very decorative, and again in early fall 
when the fruit is ripening the high red 
color of the fruit makes this tree worth 
while just for ornamental purposes. The 
quality of the fruit for jelly and preserves 
is excellent. 
ERICKSON —The largest hardy red apple 
for the North. Bears very early. Rich 
red color. Hardy even in the far north. 
Because of its enormous size often called 
“the pumpkin of the apple family. ” 
Early. 
Vest Pocket Orchard 
How often has the city home owner sighed 
for three or more varieties of apples when 
there was room for only one tree in his 
yard! To meet their needs we have devel¬ 
oped Daniels Vest Pocket Orchard apple 
trees. By means of a painstaking process 
of grafting, we have developed trees which 
will bear 3, 4, 5 and even 6 different varie¬ 
ties on the one tree. Each variety is as per¬ 
fect as if it had grown on a normal tree. 
We have used only the best varieties as 
Wealthy, Haralson, Dolgo, Daniels Red, 
Duchess, McIntosh and Erickson. Aside 
from its utilitarian value, you will get more 
“bang’’ out of one of these trees, bearing 
several varieties of fruit at once, than out 
of any other plant on your grounds. Order 
Early.
