ANDREWS 
Cortland 
Cortland is really a 
very exceptional apple. 
It has the high color 
and fine quality of its 
parent McIntosh with' 
out some of the faults 
of McIntosh. 
Cortland hangs to 
the tree better — the 
fruit stands handling 
and shipping better 
and it keeps 'till mid' 
winter. We have over 
a thousand Cortland in 
our bearing orchard 
and find the fruit sells 
readily and brings a premium over common sorts. 
It even outsells McIntosh. The tree is a vigorous 
grower, a heavy cropper, and the fruit is well 
distributed over the trees. 
A L A very hardy tree and an early, 
r\nOKa Fruit lacks color.

NORTHERN ROOTED 
APPLE TREES 
Special for Top Working 
We have had increasing demands of late for hardy 
trees on which to top work other varieties. Commercial 
apple growers like to secure Hibernal or Virginia to 
grow one or two years in the orchard, and then top 
work as they see fit. It is thought by many that apple 
trees will be longer lived and more productive when 
top worked on Hibernal or Virginia. 
These two varieties as quoted below are ideal for this 
purpose. Both have been tested and approved by the 
State Horticultural Department. When buying trees 
for top working be sure you buy trees on Hardy 
Northern Root-Stocks, as, of course, a Hibernal or 
Virginia, if on a common root, would have no advan' 
tage over any common tree in the trade, and there 
vould be no object in top working. 
is a large green apple, only suit' 
able for cooking, but the tree 
is ideal for top working because of its strong 
sturdy trunk and crotches. 
is a good crab apple of Trans' 
cendent type. The tree is princi' 
pally recommended for top working. The trunk 
is strong and the crotches wide spreading. 
Hibernal 
Virginia 
heavy cropper, 
flavor, and keeping quality. 
DArl niirkA«« It has all the good qual' 
l>0O l^UCn0SS q£ i-Fg old Duchess 
and in addition has attractive bright red color. 
Red Duchess makes a delicious sauce with a 
flavor all its own. Commands a better price on 
the early market than common Duchess. 
^ quality, sweet apple that 
lytrllwIOUb grown in favored loca' 
tions in southeastern Minnesota, if propagated 
on our hardy root stock. Keeps to January. 
twl r* i ^ apple of very high quality. 
Adapted to planting on suitable 
soils in vicinity of St. Paul and southeast. Not 
recommended for prairie districts in west' 
ern Minnesota. Keeps 'till January. 
Northwestern Greening 
Fruit very large, and handsome; turning 
yellow as it matures. This apple is in good 
demand as a cooking apple in late winter 
and spring. A good commercial variety in 
the southeast third of Minnesota. Season, 
December to March. 
Doloo Crab ““P^ratively new 
iJ very unusual 
crab apple. It has been called the “Perfect 
Crab." The fruit is strikingly beautiful, 
bright fiery red, borne in great profusion. 
It jells perfectly—even when dead ripe. 
Dolgo is free from blight and it is rapidly 
displacing the old varieties such as Trans' 
cendent and Hyslop. 
Dolgo makes a beautiful lawn tree and 
may be used on the home grounds instead 
of Mountain Ash. 
Yellow Transparent 
Whitney Crab 
Wealthy 
An old fa' 
vorite early 
summer eating apple. Very hardy and produc' 
tive. 
A large, red, mild 
flavored crab, excel' 
lent for eating, canning, and pickles. Perfectly 
hardy, never blights, and is a heavy cropper. 
Whitney is the best of all sweet crab apples; it 
ripens early. 
Few apples that we grow excel 
the Wealthy in quality and ap' 
pearance. This has been the leading commercial 
apple in the south half of Minnesota. Season, 
September to January.
