APPLES—KING OF FRUITS 
The varieties offered in this list have Ibeen selected from hundreds of different va¬ 
rieties tested on our own grounds during several years; the best varieties ripening in suc¬ 
cession that are suited to the soil and climate of the Southern states. 
Early Harvest—^Large, bright yellow, tender and juicy, and of the highest quality; indis- 
pensible, even in the smallest collection. Also known as Yellow May; the first to ripen, 
June 1 to 15. 
Early Red Margaret—Small to medium, rather flat; skin yellow, with dark red stripes, of 
high flavor, strong grower and desirable and ripens June 20 until July 20. This apple is 
more desirable than Red Jtine and is fast taking its place. 
Reagan—Medium to large, red striped, tender, juicy and sweet; immense bearer, one of 
the best eating apples known; tree a strong grower and young bearer; ripens July and 
August, lasting six weeks. This apple is known over the state under different local 
names, as Day, Clark, Boler and Jack. 
Summer Queen—.Large, oblong, green with red cheek; yellow flesh, fine flavored. One of 
the most desirable August apples. Should be in every collection. 
Bonum—iLarge, dark red stripes on lighter ground; sub-acid, rich and delicious. Ripens 
last of August to September. This apple should be planted Iby everyone as it ripens when 
other fruits are gone. 
September Red—Medium red, yellow flesh, fine quality, thrifty grower, and a heavy 
bearer, ripening during September. This apple has been selected from 30 varieties as being 
the best of its season. 
Bill Arp (Doolittle)—Large, red cheek, mostly covered with deep crimson and white dots; 
flesh yellow, tender and sweet, of the best quality; tree strong, upright grower. Ripens 
during September and through October. This is decidedly the best late apple we have 
ever grown, and the demand for it continues to increase with each season. 
Stayman’s Winesap (A seedling of Winesap)—Tree hardy, vigorous and spreading; abun¬ 
dant bearer, fruit dark, rich red, lightly striped, flesh firm, crisp and juicy. We find it a 
fine addition to our fall list of apples. Ripens in Septemlber and October.
