NEW HANSEN FRUITS 
RED FLESH CRAB 
It's red, it's red clear through—both flesh 
and skin. This new crabapple introduced 
by Prof. N. E. Hansen has created a sensa¬ 
tion in apple fruit production. The fruit is 
good size, varying from about 2 to 21/2 
inches long and around 1V4 fo 1 ^2 inches 
in diameter. The color of the skin is some¬ 
what of a greenish dark red, the flesh when 
fully ripe is a good dark red. 
Red Flesh is good to eat fresh, having sort 
of a sprightly tart flavor, which when made 
into jelly or jam gives it such a good flavor. 
Its most beautiful use is when the fruit is 
cooked up with other apples or crabs, as it 
completely colors them to the most desirable 
red sauce you could ask for. 
Red fruit, red flesh, red jam, red jelly, red 
sauce—all of these striking combinations 
that are wanted. Something new and en¬ 
tirely different than the common run of 
apples. A forerunner no doubt of a new 
race of red fleshed apples. 
The tree is very sturdy, and completely 
hardy for the north. It bears at a very 
young age and is a constant bearer. Be¬ 
cause of its recent introduction our stock of 
Red Flesh this season is extremely short and 
we may not be able to offer it in our spring 
catalog, so to be assured of your supply 
order now while our stock is complete.

DOLGO CRAB 
The Best Red lelly Crabl Every house¬ 
wife who tries it raves about it. Its fruit con¬ 
tains a very high amount of pectin and we 
have many reports of making from 42 to 45 
glasses of jelly and 8 pints of jam from only 
one peck of the fruit. 
The fruit, vz-hich is oblong in shape, about 
1 3 / 4 x 1 V 4 inches, makes an ideal pickling 
crab, as it holds its shape so well and is 
of a remarkable taste. 
The fruit is beautiful to look at, being a 
brilliant, clear red all over, with white flesh, 
lam and jelly made from Dolgo are a clear, 
brignt red. 
From an ornamental standpoint, Dolgo is 
outstanding. Covered completely with large 
masses of flowers in spring, and later the 
brilliant red fruits covering the tree can be 
seen from a great distance. 
The tree is strong growing and very hardy 
far north into Canada. It is blight proof and 
resistant to disease. It bears abundantly 
and starts bearing when very young—al¬ 
most as young as the famous Anoka apple. 
A three-year tree often bears a good crop 
of fruit. 
From a commercial standpoint Dolgo is 
one of the best crabs on the market. Once 
a housewife has tried Dolgo and obtained 
such splendid results, she always wants 
more. Buy your stock now this fall, while 
we still have a fair supply of nice trees.
