fAnniVi/tn For flavor, juiciness, in 
lonainan fact for a good eating 
apple I cannot name you a better apple 
than the old fashioned Jonathan. It is 
an app'e of medium size, the tree is 
hardy up to the middle of Nebraska, and 
bears well. It keeps until about January 
in ordinary cellars. Ripens end of Sep¬ 
tember. Except in the extreme North 
where it would not be hardy, a few Jon¬ 
athans should be in every home orchard. 
Macintosh Red £ r„ rt w r %3“ 
Originated in Canada.. In Wyoming, 
Idaho, Montana and high altitudes of 
New Mexico my customers favor this 
tree, and for years I have recommended 
it for these states, and wherever you 
need an extra hardy apple this variety 
will please you. Bears well, and the 
fruit is of fair quality. Ripens middle 
of October. 
Wherever Sonderegger trees are found, 
there is a good, producing orchard of 
hardy trees. This photo is from Mr. 
Klose. of Bertram, Texas, showing his 
orchard of Sonderegger trees.

Red Cortland 
Outstanding for its young- 
bearing, usually beginning to 
bear two or three years after planting. Fruit of 
dark red color, juicy and crisp. The tree is very 
hardy, can be grown up to Central Minnesota, 
ripening in September it will mature in the North¬ 
ern apple districts. 
WINTER 
APPLES 
Grimes 
Golden 
Ripen late and keep well, most 
of them keep until spring. The 
following are the choicest, and 
most popular varieties: 
Plant Apple trees 30 by 30 
feet apart, or plant them 35 
by 35 feet apart and plant a 
filler tree between each two 
apple trees. For filler trees, 
plant Plums, Sour Cherry, 
Dwarf Pear or Peach. These 
trees give you an early in¬ 
come from your plantings, 
and can be removed in later 
years when the apples require 
the entire space. 
Winter Banana f °r™m 
Michigan; a hardy tree. Most 
productive and bears quite 
young. Rich in flavor, spicy 
and aromatic; flesh yellow, firm 
and juicy. Color a golden yel¬ 
low; very attractive, and a good 
keeper. The vigorous healthy 
growth of this tree, its extra 
large leaves would even make 
it a desirable shade tree on the 
lawn. I recommend this apple 
for the Middle West, but not 
north of Nebraska. Ripens 
October 1. 
DftHfioil't YpllftW ^- n a PPl® of medium 
l/euuous, I enow s j z e , golden yellow. 
Possesses a rich flavor, resembling that of pears, 
quite sweet. It is one of the finest table apples 
you can get. Perfectly hardy here, and most any¬ 
where in the Middle West; bears young. Ripens 
first week in October. Add 15c per tree to prices 
quoted above. 
Delicious, Double Red £, h uppS^uh t 
hand corner of page 5 shows the dark color of this 
apple, and this photo is just one-half of the apple’s 
natural size. Delicious is the best paying apple on 
the market, and in this improved double red strain 
the special dark red color develops early in the 
ripening season, and evenly, covering the entire 
apple. Due to this fact the apple can be picked 
while still perfectly hard, and having its extra fine 
color. Hard-ripe picking makes this apple the 
longest keeper of any. Ripens October 10. Hardy 
in the Middle West, and the tree is a vigorous 
grower. 
Grime<i Golden Contains practically no 
VJTimeb VJOiaen acid. Combines a rich 
aromatic flavor with an attractive golden yellow 
color, and a long season of usefulness. It is one 
of the oldest apples in America, and still one of 
the very best. The tree is healthy, a good 
grower, and bears well, but should be pruned an¬ 
nually as it is inclined to grow bushy. Do not 
plant it north of the middle of Nebraska. Ripens 
snd of September. 
Northwestern Greening fure 
on top this page shows apple one-half nat¬ 
ural size. Extremely hardy, vigorous 
grower; does well most anywhere, espe¬ 
cially in the North and Northwest where 
few apples of such high quality grow suc¬ 
cessfully. Keeps well, fruit is large, 
greenish yellow when ripe. One of the 
best for baking. Restaurants pay pre¬ 
mium prices for them. Ripens middle of 
October. 
Rome Beauty §"uh c : 
west, the Pacific states, and the eastern 
states, also Ohio and Indiana. Fruit 
large, yellow with red; very juicy, blooms 
late, and ripens in October. 
Paw Paw 
(Asiminia) A 
small tree with 
purple and whitish flowers and 
handsome foliage. The large 
fruit, banana-shaped, is edible 
and improves by cultivation. 
This has been a native tree in 
Nebraska, Kansas and most 
Midwest states, and should be 
replanted. Of value for orna¬ 
ment as well as for the fruit. 
Nice 3 to 4 ft. trees 50c each, 
postpaid. 
Ben Davis 
For pies, bak¬ 
ing and cook¬ 
ing this apple is one of the very 
best. It is also an excellent 
keeper, one of the oldest apples 
in the Middle West. Ripens 
middle of October. Very hardy.
