Wide Selection of Varieties Improved ly Bud Selection” 
“Bud Selection” is most important for safe, profitable investment in Apple orchards. It retains all desirable 
qualities of tree and fruit, preventing deterioration usually caused by budding from transitional trees 
mixed with undesirable variations. And, since all varieties tend to deteriorate, it is of greatest importance 
that propagating buds be taken from sources of KNOWN desirability. For these reasons, following 
lists of “GREENING BUD SELECTED” Apple trees offer you your choice of the best quality stock 
available, stock of KNOWN performance, and with all of the desirable characteristics that speli 
better crops, bigger profits.
