Scarff’s Miami 
Double Sport—Color and Quality 7 . 
Better Color—Finer Texture—Higher : 
Quality. These combined with the other 
good characters of the common Stark 
will make ‘‘Miami’’ one of the leading 
winter apples for both home and com- 
mercial use. The.fruiting trees which 
we have are identical to Stark—vigor- 
ous, thrifty and heavy producers. The 
fruit is above medium to large; color 
solid pinkish bronze to bright red and 
flesh is crisp, juicy, better quality and 
finer texture than Stark. Excellent for 
culinary use. MIAMI is a high quality 
eating apple, crisp, juicy and having 
a rich yellowish fiesh when ripe. They 
are good to eat soon after picking but 
develop their best quality in mid-winter and keep in 
good common storage until spring. 
C ri mson B eau ty A most attractive early 
red apple of the Trans- 
parent season. Tree is hardy, productive and an an- 
nual bearer. The fruit is large, sprightly and good in 
quality. Especially valuable for home planting and 
Roadside trade. Our supply of this variety is very 
limited. ‘ 
oe Now considered the very 
Sweet Delicious best winter Sweet Apple. 
The fruits are large and attractive in size, color and 
shape and with the sweet aromatic flavor of Deli- 
cious. This variety will be especially appreciated for 
home planting for dessert and baking.

LODI is much larger than 
Transparent and equal to 
it in other characteristics. 
L di A large waxen yellow Apple of the Trans- 
Odi parent type. The color is the clear attraec- 
tive yellow of the Transparent but they handle and 
keep much better because of the somewhat thicker 
skin and firmer flesh. Because of their size they may 
be picked for market or culinary use at. the same 
time as Transparent, but are at their best if allowed 
to hang a week or ten days later. It meets the re- 
quirements of a variety for home planting because the 
apples may be used over such a _ long period of time 
and the fact that it has the same high cooking quali- 
ties as Transparent. ‘Commercial growers are planting 
Lodi in preference to Transparent.

schedules for all fruit trees are included in our

PLANTING DISTANCES 
Apple, Standard 
(Filler trees may be planted between the per- 
manent Apple and these can usually stand for 
16 to 18 years.)

Dwarf Fruit Trees 

We have found that when planting 
fruit trees either ‘late Spring or Fall 
planting the best igsurance of growth— 
‘outside of good trees and good soil 
around the roots—is to wrap the entire 
trunk and most of the branches with 
light burlap or coarse paper. Gradually 
remove this covering from the top down 
just as soon as buds start growth. 
Fruit fiery red 
Dolgo Crab and hangs on the 
tree long after ripe—making it exceed- 
ingly ornamental as well ‘as valuable for 
making jellies. We can* recommend it as 
one of the finest and niost beautiful 
crabs grown. PS

I sure got a nice crop of. berries off 
of the 500 raspberry plants I set out 
a year ago last Spring which inci- 
dentally I got from you.
