APPLE TREES 
New Apples from Minnesota Fruit Breeding Farm 
Prof. W. H. Alderman 
Prof. Alderman and 
his staff at the Minne' 
sota State Fruit Breed' 
ing Farm have surely 
done notable work in 
developing the splen' 
did new apples listed 
on this page. Here you 
have hardiness and pro' 
ductivity of tree, com' 
bined with high quah 
ity of fruit. You will 
have a succession of 
apples from late sum' 
mer throughout the 
fall, winter and spring, 
and the quality ranks 
with the best. 
Supply of these trees 
limited — order early.

Beacon Tops the Market 
Before Wealthy or McIntosh are Ready 
Beacon Early—AII Red 
Prof. Alderman says: ^‘The new Beacon is a fall apple 
ripening with or a few days later than Duchess, and will 
keep for a month after harvest even without cold storage 
facilities. It is a highly colored, all-red variety — better 
eating than Duchess and is an excellent cooking apple. 
The tree is vigorous, productive, and very hardy!’ 
The early season, the uniform size and shape, the high 
color and quality, together with the keeping and hand' 
ling quality so different from most early apples, makes 
Beacon the outstanding early apple for home or for 
market. Beacon apples bring $2.00 per bushel on the 
Minneapolis market when the Duchess are selling at 75c. 
Minn. No. 700 
"Minnesota Jonathan" 
Prof. Alderman says: **A medium size, roundish, very 
dark, rich red color; quality good, regular cropper, fruit 
hangs to the tree!* 
Minn. 700 gives us fruit comparable to Jonathan, but 
without the faults of Jonathan. A splendid fall apple. 
Minn. No. 790 "Tip Top Baker" 
Many people do not realize that restaurants and hotels 
are very particular about the apples they choose for 
baking. They require just the right size, texture, sugar 
content, etc. Of the older varieties the most popular for 
baking has been Rome Beauty, which cannot be grown 
here but must be shipped in from the West Coast. 
However, tests carried on in connection with "the State 
University indicate that Minn. 790 is just as satisfactory 
as Rome Beauty and it can be grown here in our own 
back yard. Let’s plant Minn. 790 and “grow our own.” 
Minn. No. 638 "Winter Wealthy" 
This new apple has been called the “Winter 
Wealthy,” although it is quite superior to Wealthy in 
many ways. It hangs to the tree until colored up a 
beautiful bright red. It is good to eat as soon as it is 
picked or it will keep until February or March. Recom' 
mended from Twin City latitude south to allow a full 
ripening season. 
Minn. No. 1007 
High Quality—Long Keeping 
The most outstanding feature of Minn. 1007 is its 
very excellent quality—considered to be as high quality 
as any apple in the United States. 
Because Minn. 1007 is so superior in quality to other 
apples marketed after Christmas, there will be a ready 
market for all that can be grown for many years. The 
trees are productive and the fruit hangs well to the trees. 
Recommended for every orchard south of the Twin 
City latitude. It requires this length of season to develop 
full quality.
