Apples and Crabs 
The first fruit in importance is the apple. Its period of ripening, unlike that of other 
fruit, extends nearly or quite through the year. By making judicious selections of sum* 
mer, autumn and winter sorts, a constant succession can easily be obtained of this 
indispensable fruit for family use.

Summer Varieties 
DUCHESS OF OLDENBURG. Tree rath¬ 
er poor in nursery, but has proven one of 
the best for the North; fruit large, surface 
smooth, waxen yellow ground with bright, 
carmine stripes; sour; one of best for cook¬ 
ing; very productive. August. 
YELLOW TRANSPARENT. One of the 
earliest apples. Fruit is medium large, 
smooth, transparent. Skin is clear white, 
turning pale yellow when ripe. Flesh 
white, fine grained, aromatic, and of splen¬ 
did quality. Two-year-old trees frequently 
produce fruit. Succeeds well in all eastern 
states, and should be planted in all cold cli¬ 
mates. Succeeds well on thin soils. Ripens 
in early August. Its hardiness and early 
bearing commends it to planters. 
WEALTHY. A variety highly 
valuable for its extreme hardiness 
at the far North. Tree is a thrifty 
grower and a good bearer. Fruit 
medium, roundish, skin is smooth, 
mostly covered with dark red, 
flesh white, fine grained, juicy, 
sub-acid, good quality. Will keep 
until January. Extra good sort 
and splendid dessert and cooking 
apple. This is one of the few most 
desirable varieties for Minnesota, 
Wisconsin, Iowa and Nebraska, as 
well as the eastern and middle 
states. 
GRIMES GOLDEN. Almost sweet, con¬ 
tains practically no acid. People who can¬ 
not eat apples on account of the acid they 
contain can eat Grimes Golden without any 
bad effect. Combines the rich aromatic 
flavor with an attractive golden-yellow 
color, and a long season of usefulness. 
Grimes Golden was first propagated in 
1804, and its fine qualities have kept it on 
the top of the list. In fruit markets, large 
or small, you find Grimes Golden—at top 
g rices. The tree is healthy, good grower, 
ears well, needs considerable pruning as it 
is inclined to grow bushy. 
ANOKA. Ripens in September. The size, 
color and flavor of the Anoka make it a 
favorite. Also a good keeper. The remark¬ 
able feature of this excellent apple is that 
it comes into bearing very young, is also 
dwarf in stature, so that it is well adapted 
to back yard planting or closer in the 
orchard.
