NEW VARIETIES OF GREAT MERIT 
A New Creation — Offered for the First Time 
"A HUDSON’S GOLDEN GEM APPLE 
The original tree was found by Mr. A. D. Hudson in a fence row 
thicket about 6 years ago. Apple is large and conical in shape with long 
stem and has hung on the tree until Christmas; not inclined to windfall. 
The unique feature of this apple is: it has a pear skin and color, rich 
russet as the Bose Pear. It has an exceptionally fine flavor and is long 
keeping. Tree is a thrifty grower. It is a prolific bearer. 
We are making a special price this year as follows: $1.00 per tree, 
75c each in 10 lots. 
(Patent applied for.) 
Corvallis Peach 
Corvallis (New Peach). This new 
peach comes to us from D. M. Johns of 
Corvallis, Mr. Johns stating that a Doc¬ 
tor Alexander planted the seedling sixty- 
five years ago at Corvallis, therefore, we 
consider “Corvallis” to be an appropriate 
name for it. The fruit is very large and 
globular, a yellow freestone, ripening 
just after J. H. Hale. We feel that the 
great merit of this peach is its large size, 
beautiful coloring and the fact that it 
colors up brilliantly while still firm and 
solid, which should make it a very valu¬ 
able shipping variety, for it will stand a 
lot of handling without being bruised or 
discolored. $1.00 each. 10 for $7.50. 
(Patent applied for.) 
Golden Jubilee Peach introduced in the 
west. A development of the New Jersey 
experimental station. The outstanding 
peach of all recent introductions. A high 
quality early yellow freestone peach. The 
Golden Jubilee is a second generation 
seedling of the Elberta crossed with the 
Greenboro Peach. The tree is unusually 
hardy. The buds resist winter freezes 
well and open after Elberta, which in¬ 
sures a regular crop. The blossoms are 
self-fertile. The Peach is a medium to a 
large size and firm. It is a good shipper 
and it will grow where other peaches 
will grow, they are heavy bearers. Prices 
5c higher than other varieties of peaches. 
All Red Delicious. New long keeping. 
We have an exceptionally fine strain of 
the All Red Delicious in a long keeping- 
strain. We have found that they will 
keep at least a month or more longer 
than other strains of the Imp. All Red 
Delicious. We are offering these this 
year at 5c per tree more than other va¬ 
rieties. For the large planter we would 
advise planting some of these as they 
have everything to gain and nothing to 
lose as the quality and production is 
equal to any strain of delicious ever put 
on the market. 
Improved Winesap. We have an ex¬ 
ceptionally fine strain of Winesap which 
produces nearly 100% color, size and 
quality. It is just as good as the stand¬ 
ard old Winesap but you will get more 
extra fancy grades. It would be advis¬ 
able for fruit growers to plant a quan¬ 
tity of these as they are a superior apple. 
Only 5c per tree more than old standard 
varieties. 
Improved Jonathan. This is another 
Jonathan Apple only you receive nearly 
100% color which means more extra 
fancy grades. This tree is just as pro¬ 
lific a bearer as the standard old Jona¬ 
than but is more profitable for the large 
fruit growers. We advise planting a 
quantity of these. 5c per tree higher 
than old standard varieties. 
Improved Yellow Transparent. This is 
the same as a Yellow Transparent, sea¬ 
son at the same time only we have se¬ 
lected an especially good strain from a 
regular Yellow Transparent orchard to 
insure the planter of a heavier producing* 
strain. 5c per tree extra. 
Black Rome Beauty. This is a Rome 
Beauty type apple sometimes called 
Cherry Red Rome Beauty. It has a very 
dark red color. The keeping quality is 
just as good or better as the standard 
Rome or Red Rome. We only have a 
limited supply of this variety. No extra 
charge. 
A New Apricot 
Southwick (New Apricot). The orig¬ 
inal tree of this variety, which came from 
a seed planted in 1852 is still growing 
and bearing annually at Rickreall, Ore¬ 
gon, on rather poor, wet soil which ordi¬ 
narily would not maintain an apricot tree 
at all. The tree is one of our best grow¬ 
ers of all the varieties of apricot in our 
nursery. The fruit is round, very large, 
with true apricot color, slightly red on 
the sunny side. We hope and trust this 
variety will prove to be an iron-clad long 
lived variety the same as the parent tree, 
which of course time alone can prove. 
$1.00 each. 10 for $7.50.
