NEW ROGERS McINTOSH APPLE 
Here is a solid red McIntosh, classed as one of the most valuable new 
fruit introductions in years. The fruit is the same size as common 
McIntosh, but is not striped. Flesh white, fine grained, very tender, 
juicy and refreshing. Better quality than common McIntosh and hangs 
better on tree. October to February.

I recommend "Rogers McIntosh." I believe 
real advantage of planting this solid red strain 
rather than the regular strain is that it ob¬ 
tains a satisfactory color early and enables the 
grower to pick fruit at the proper time, rather 
than waiting, hoping for additional color later, 
and thereby having fruit too ripe for storage. 
I am planting "Rogers McIntosh" in my 
orchards. Stanley L. Painter

Here is a letter from the New York State 
Experimental Station: 
Geneva, New York 
The "Rogers McIntosh" was thoroughly tested 
here at the Station and does bear solid red 
apples. This has been proved by continued 
testing of this original strain.

How to Plant 
1— Set plants slightly deeper 
than in nursery. 
2— Spread out roots naturally. 
3— Shake good soil down 
among roots—work in with 
fingers. 
4— Shake tree up and down to 
settle dirt. 
5— Tread soil firmly when hole 
is half full. 
6 — Fill hole and tramp soil. 
7— Leave loose soil on top or 
cover ground with mulch. 
8 — Pocket left to catch water. 
NOTE: Always keep the roots covered. Dig hole large enough to receive plant without bending 
roots. Break up subsoil when it is very hard.
