♦PRAIRIE SPY (No.1007) - Originated by 
Minnesota Fruit Breeding Farm. When 
Prof. Alderman first spoke of this 
apple,he made the following statement, 
"A most unusual, promising variety . 
Its quality is at least equal, if not 
superior, to any variety grown in the 
United States". The apple has not 
yet been named, but probably will be 
named "Alderman" - in honor of Prof, 
W. H. Alderman, head of the Horticul¬ 
tural Division of the State of Minne¬ 
sota. A worthy name for a worthy ap¬ 
ple. It appears to be the first 
high quality apple to succeed so far 
north. Is said to equal Jonathan in 
quality. Good red color, medium size 
and mid-winter keeper.
