Here is a marvelous NEW BRIGHT RED Jonathan sport—announced by Stark Bro’s as the ONLY red Jonathan 
Sport to win a U.S. PATENT. This remarkable apple takes on a BRIGHT, DOUBLE-RED BLAZING all-over color 
about 2 weeks before ordinary Jonathan colors—has all the Jonathan’s fine points plus longer keeping quality—and 
practically eliminates drop, because it colors so early. 
“‘Jonared cannot be praised too highly! I will replace all my old Jonathans with JONAREDS as soon 
as the trees are available’’— 
says one of the most successful orchardists in America. JONARED trees are available NOW! 
This new apple variety is the 
PROFIT MAKER for orchard owners large and small. 
The old Jonathan has long been one of the leading American 
apples. But, its lack of color in some sections and its habit, 
some yeats, of dropping before full coloring has resulted in 
heavy losses to Jonathan growers. 
Our long search for a New Bright Red Jonathan Sport that 
would eliminate these faults was finally rewarded with suc- 
cess! We discovered the long-looked-for perfect Jonathan 
sport in a western orchard, and now after rigid tests and 
observation we offer it to the orchardists of America. 

Stark Bro’s quickly recognizing its great value, gladly paid 
~ $2,000.00 for the original tree of this perfect Jonathan sport, 
which they patented in the U. S. PATENT Office at Wash- 
ington, D. C. and named JONARED.

\*‘Jonared Brings 40 Cents More} 
Per Bushel Than Jonathan” | 
“I certainly am glad that I took your suggestion | 
and planted Jonared instead of Jonathan. These 
| Jonared came into light bearing for me the third | © 
|year. They are six years old now and average from 
15 to 6 bushels per tree of beautiful all-over flashy 
|red fruit which we sold without any additional | 
| effort for 35 cents to 40 cents a bushel more than 
|'the same grade Jonathan. These Jonared color 
lup, way, way ahead of the Jonathan. I get a> 
| better price on Jonathan which I sell early in the i 
| season — but neither I nor any of my friends who 
| grow Jonathan, have been able to get good color 
| until you people sold us the Jonared. That flashy 
finish certainly does the job.’’—Les Smith 
Rock Island County, IIl.—ex-Pres’t. Ill. Hort. 
Society. 

MOST VALUABLE Red Jonathan Sport EVER DISCOVERED. It is already a proved 
Jonared Trees Are Sold Only By Stark Bro’s 
Jonared has all the familiar exquisite Jonathan flavor most highly de- 
veloped, it has the Jonathan characteristics of size and form but— 
Jonared is almost Twice As Red—a BRIGHT SOLID, BLAZING RED 
“WITHOUT A SIGN OF A STRIPE. This Bright Red color reaches 
from the stem to the calyx. A true, Bright and Glowing Red (Not a 
blackish red) but an attractive BRIGHT CLEAR vivid red. 
JONARED takes on this marvelous color LONG BEFORE OLD 
JONATHAN BEGINS TO TURN RED, enabling the grower to pick 
JONARED while it is still hard and solid, and Before The Danger of 
Dropping. As one Orchardist puts it—‘‘THIS FEATURE WILL 
MAKE MILLIONS FOR APPLE GROWERS.” It goes on the market 
one of the most beautiful red apples, with 100% Fancy Grade 
from the tree, so far as color is concerned. This 100% Red Color 
will vastly increase the growers’ profits—every year! 
The superb quality of JONARED is that of a perfectly ripened Jonathan 
—a quality that is hard to describe. It is rich, spicy, tangful—one of 
the finest flavors among all apples, and so recognized by all markets and 
all connoisseurs. 
The new JONARED matches and frequently surpasses ordinary Jonathan 
for young and heavy bearing. JONARED also excels in long keeping quality 
and freedom from storage scald. It is an all-purpose apple as superior for 
cooking and canning asit is for eating fresh. The tree is disease resistant and 
hardy, sturdily thriving North, East, South and West. 
“Tam pleased to see JONARED, the new Red ‘“‘This early coloring sport of Jonathan should 
Jonathan sport. There is no question about 
the value of the additional red color. Here in 
Iowa the Jonathan does remarkably well, but 
many times the best red (ordinary Jonathan) 
apples drop before the bulk of the crop is 
ready to harvest. Unless Jonathan hangs late 
a considerable percentage is not full red, so 
our lowa orchardists would gain considerably 
if a full-red Jonathan is made available for 
planting’—H. L. Lantz, Asst. Prof. Pomol- 
ogy, lowa State College, Ames, lowa. 
This Bright-Red JONARED, ranks high among commercial varieties in popularity—with 
Starking, Golden Delicious, Scarlet Staymared. Jonathan is today probably the third or 
fourth most popular apple in America. Because of its tremendous improvement JONARED 
will be far more popular than Jonathan ever has been. 
Starking, Golden Delicious, Scarlet Staymared and Jonared! What a combination for the 
commercial grower—and all small orchard owners, too! 
do much toward making this variety more 
profitable for the producer. ‘‘The better color 
will enable the grower to pick earlier. It will 
lessen greatly the lower grades. Since he will 
be able to pick the fruit at the proper time 
without waiting for color, the keeping and 
handling quality of the fruit should be in- 
creased. Highly colored red apples sell better 
thanred streaked or poorly colored specimens. 
This factor alone may even mean the differ- 
ence between success and failure.’’—T. J. Tal- 
bert, Professor of Horticulture, University of 
Missouri.
