APPLE TREES 
Apples prefer a cool, temperate climate, and their production in California is 
restricted almost entirely to coastal valleys and mountain districts. Only a few 
early varieties do well in the interior. For commercial production, apples are not 
planted closer than 25 feet apart and in fertile valley soils are planted as far as 
35 feet apart. "Roeding's Quality'' apple trees are grown on the finest grade 
seedlings obtainable in the Pacific Northwest. Budwood is selected from trees 
with known high productivity. 
Long a favorite in the home orchard, the apple bears a delicious, as well as orna¬ 
mental, fruit. We recommend the following varieties as particularly suitable for 
home orchard planting in the order of their ripening: Red June, Red Astrachan, 
Skinner's Seedling, Jonathan, Red Delicious, Winter Banana, Stayman's Winesap 
and Yellow Newtown Pippin.

lar commercial summer apple in Cali¬

QUANTITY RATES 
The total number of trees ordered 
determines which quantity rate 
applies. For example, if an order 
is composed of 12 peaches, 27 
apricots and 35 prunes, a total of 
74 trees, the customer uses the 50 
to 299 rate in determining the 
price of each of these varieties. 
Nut bearing trees (except al¬ 
monds) should be figured sep¬ 
arately, as should citrus and sub¬ 
tropical fruits, grapevines and 
berry plants. Strawberries should 
not be included with other small 
fruits in determining quantity 
rates.

Red June (right). This is one of the 
earliest varieties for home orch¬ 
ards and local markets, ripening 
in most sections in the month of 
July. The Red June makes a fine 
dessert apple. The fruit is hand¬ 
somely colored with red, suffused 
with yellow and is of medium 
size. "The flesh is white, tender 
and slightly subacid. Flere is a 
splendid variety for people in the 
interior valleys, for whom many 
varieties do not prove satis¬ 
factory.
