Here is a Wide Selection of Varieties That BUD 
SELECTION Makes Larger and More Colorful 
NORTHERN SPY (Farley No. 9) —One of our outstanding achievements 
in Bud Selection. This remarkable parent tree is a combination of the 
following factors which we wish to reproduce in Northern Spy orchards; 
a strong, vigorous tree, early bearing, heavy annual production, large 
size in fruit and an attractive typical striped color type. This parent tree 
produced a full crop of nearly twelve bushels when only nine years old 
and a total of one hundred forty-one bushels by the end of the sixteenth 
season. The fact that this tree produced twelve bushels when only nine 
years old, shows that it must have come into bearing at not more than 
six years after planting for a Spy tree always bears a few apples the first 
year and continues to increase in production each year. This record speaks 
for itself. It requires no added comments. The fruit is large and extremely 
attractive. Color, bright red with indistinct stripings. Flesh, very juicy, 
crisp and tender and most excellent for either dessert or culinary use. 
Season, November to March. See also Solid Red Spy. 
NORTHWESTERN GREENING (Smith No. 5) —Our Tree Performance 
Records show the parent of this variety to be the producer of the greatest 
number of bushels of any tree under observation. The production of 
No. 1 grade of fruit is high and the cost per bushel is low. Production 
records on this variety for seven years total 1303^ bushels with the 
average size of the fruit weighing 1034 ounces. Color, clear pale yellow 
sometimes faintly blushed. Flesh is firm, juicy, slightly aromatic, mild sub¬ 
acid. The quality is very good. The tree grows with rapidity and vigor 
and is a prolific producer. Tree is extremely hardy making it an important 
variety for fruit growing interests in northern sections of the country. 
Season, January to June. 
RHODE ISLAND GREENING (Bushce) —The parent tree of this strain 
produced annual crops beginning the second year after planting. Coupled 
with the unusually early bearing habit there is a very vigorous tree growth. 
The fruit is typical of the variety, being one of our finest green apples. 
The fruit is very large, fine-grained, uniform in shape and size. For culinary 
purposes this variety is unsurpassed. The flesh is tender, very juicy and 
the flavor is rich and pleasing. Season, December to March. 
ROME BEAUTY —See Gallia Beauty, a better, improved variety. 
SOLID RED DELICIOUS— This variety is like Delicious in every respect 
excepting that it has added color. As the name implies this is a solid red, 
highly colored Delicious. It is recommended especially for locations where 
Delicious does not have sufficient color. The tree is hardy, healthy, vig¬ 
orous and bears regular annual crops. Flesh is fine-grained, crisp, melting 
and juicy. Quality is very good and the season is November to March. 
SOLID RED McIntosh (Faricy No. 5) —This Super-Selected Solid Red 
McIntosh is the answer to the desire of fruit growers for this popular 
variety in its most attractive form. Combined with added color is good 
production and uniformity of shape. The added attractiveness we have 
given this now popular variety means increased profits for the orchardist. 
The fruit is large, highly aromatic. Color is a solid brilliant crimson. 
Quality is the very best. Season, November to February. 
In the description of varieties, the name in parentheses immediately 
following the variety name, in each case indicates the strain and is the 
name of the orchard, in which the parent tree is located, from which propa¬ 
gating buds were taken. 
To match Greening's knowledge and experience would take a 
SOLID RED McIntosh (Smith) —This is another solid red McIntosh 
selection. Over one-half of the trees in this orchard produce only striped 
apples. Propagating buds for this strain were taken from the other trees 
in which the more desirable red type predominated. In other respects this 
is a true type McIntosh. 
SOLID RED SNOW (Farley No. 1) —A solid red type of Snow, also 
known as Fameuse, which is completely segregated. The original parent 
tree produces only solid red fruits. There is no indication of striping 
whatsoever. This Super-Selected Strain of Red Snow can be planted 
with confidence where ordinary Snows will not color satisfactorily. This 
is a very well and favorably known dessert apple, beautiful in appearance. 
The skin is thin, tender, smooth and extremely attractive. The flesh is 
snow-white, very tender, juicy, sub-acid and aromatic. Season, Qctober 
to mid-Winter.
