NEW APPLES 
Every lover of a good Apple will be interested in this page. This nur¬ 
sery has been interested in good Apples for over 70 years. We are ever 
on the lookout for the best in new Apples and one will not be disap¬ 
pointed in any variety listed on this page. 
RFA(^ONI (Minnesota). The best new fall Apple now on the 
market. Ripens with Duchess and will keep six weeks. 
A medium sized, all-over deep red Apple with very minute white spots. 
A great bearer, and an Apple of beautiful appearance. Makes a won¬ 
derful market Apple as it looks so fine. This is a very high quality Apple. 
||| nrr PEPPY (Brand). This, we believe, is one of the 
DC lx lx I finest home orchard Apples ever brought 
out. Very large, cone-shaped Apple like the Delicious. Color green, 
heavily striped red. Rather acid but when thoroughly ripe one of the 
finest of a'l eating Apples. Bears heavily and must be thinned. Large 
tree, very hardy. 5 to 6 ft. trees only, $1.00 each 
ill C A Kl (McLean). A medium sized dark blackish red Apple 
IVtCLEMli 0 f wonderful eating quality. We introduced this Apple 
about 30 years ago, and now we are receiving many requests for more 
trees from our former customers. The tree is large, very hardy, and long 
lived. It produces great crops of small, very dark blackish red Apples. 
One of the finest eating Apples you ever tasted. Ripens with the 
Wealthy. Everyone likes this Apple. You will, too. 
MINNESOTA No. 638 
(Minnesota). New. A large 
nicely shaped, bright red 
Apple which the authorities at the station think a great deal of. Large, 
bright red, all-winter Apple of very fine eating quality. This is a real 
quality Apple. We do not know that we ever tasted a mild flavored 
Apple that was better. It has a quality that everyone will like. 4 to 5 ft., 
1-year trees only, at 80c each; 5 for $3.75. 
MINNESOTA No. 1007 
(Minnesota). Now named 
Prairie Spy. When a lot of 
good new Apples come out at about the same time, it is hard to say just 
which one is the best if there is a best. But it seems to us from all present 
indications that No. 1007 is the coming Apple. It is a large, all-over 
brilliant red Apple. The tree is hardy, prolific, and the Apples are of the 
finest quality. The authorities at the fruit farm say of it: “It is the best 
all around, all-winter Apple in the world.” Keeps all winter. 
MINNESOTA No. 790 
blackish red Apple that is 
proving to be a great baking Apple. The Rome Beauty is the great 
baking Apple of the restaurants and hotels all over the country. No. 790 
is as good a baker as Rome Beauty. We cannot grow Rome Beauty here, 
as it is not hardy. We can grow No. 790. Let us grow it. 5 to 6 ft. trees 
only.

THE VIRGINIA CRAB 
Hardiest of all the standard Crabs. Grows into immense tree. 
Bears immense crops of bright red Crabs that make fine sauce, 
pickles, and jelly. This is the tree used by nurserymen to make 
these multi-variety apple trees now offered by many houses. Do 
this yourself. 
Purchase from us a Virginia Crab Tree, the tree commonly 
used by the nurseries for this purpose, as it is one of the hardiest 
known of all Apple trees and a tree to which other varieties of 
Apple readily take. Let this tree stand a year after planting and 
then either graft or bud into its limbs the varieties of Apples or 
Crabs you wish. A dozen or more varieties may be grown on this 
one tree. Pleased to submit prices on Virginia in hundred lots 
to those desiring to plant out for top working for orchard work. 
Nice Virginia Crab Trees, 5 to 6 ft., $1.00 each; 4 to 5 ft., 75c; 
3 to 4 ft., 50c.

DD A KJ rvc IUDCDI Al (Brand.) This, we believe, is the 
DlxAlNU J IMrEKIAL hardiest Apple tree in Minnesota. 
Grows into a large, beautiful, spreading, heavily shouldered tree capable 
of supporting its great crops of brilliant red Apples. Young, annual, 
heavy bearer. Apples very beautiful. Season just after Duchess. Espe¬ 
cially fine for pies, sauce and baking. Very long lived, beautiful tree.

U A D A I r SX Al (Minnesota). This is the first of the great line 
nAKAL^vli of winter Apples to be sent out by the Minnesota 
Station and has revolutionized Apple growing in this section of the 
country. Haralson, when kept thinned on the tree, is a large red Apple. 
Young trees bear heavily each year. The Apples will keep all winter in 
the ordinary cellar. One of our private schools here found a box of 
Haralson last fall in their cellar still in good condition when they pur¬ 
chased their new supply of Haralson again in the fall. Haralson has 
proved a successful commercial Apple to grow in the Baldwin Apple 
region of New England and New York.

HARDY PEAR TREES 
Twenty years ago we could not successfully grow Pears in Minnesota. 
But gradually, through the course of the past years, a line of hardy Pears 
has been developed which we have found perfectly hardy with us. From 
these varieties we have selected what we think are the three hardiest 
and best for our customers to grow. We advise the planting of all three 
varieties to insure proper cross-fertilization so as to insure a crop of fruit. 
n A A kl (Minnesota No. 3). This is the new Pear from our 
D/xiM I AKFYX Minnesota Station and was named last year. Up to 
this time we grew this variety under the name of Minnesota No. 3. As 
the name indicates, the fruit is small. The tree is hardy, a tremendous 
bearer of small, nicely shaped Pears as shown by the color plate on page 
49. When ripe, the fruit is a fine yellow color and is wonderfully sweet 
and delicious. 
A I? |/CD (Minnesota No.I). Recommended for planting over the 
r /A lx SVC lx southern half of Minnesota and similar climates. The 
tree is large and a free grower. The fruit is medium to large; color a 
clear medium yellow with a blush; flesh tender, medium fine grained, 
juicy, sweet, and of fine quality. Ripens with us early in September. 
DATTCM VJ C" This is probably the hardiest of the hardy 
r /V I I EH I ’O* J Pears. It is very hardy as a nursery tree and 
is the only Pear, we believe, that is carried by the North Dakota houses. 
This is a large Pear that turns yellow and mellows on the tree as it ripens. 
The fruit is sweet, juicy and fine flavored. 
Prices for all Pears: 5 to 6 ft. trees, $1.00 each; any three for $2.85; 
any six for $5.40; any 12 for $9.00, not prepaid.
