New, Early Coloring Double Red Strains 
The color print below is as true a reproduction of the real fruit as an artist’s brush can paint. There is 
no exaggeration or attempt to mislead. You be the judge as to which to plant 
Solid Red Delicious. Early Color, Late August. 

Common Delicious. Late Color, Late September 
The New Red Strains of Delicious acquire their full color in August; the Common Delicious not before the middle of September. 
Solid Red Apples bring more money than green ones and cost no more to grow. A large percentage of the crop can be packed 
as fewer go into the cull pile. Plant the New Double Red Varieties for greater profit. 
In addition to the YORKING we offer and recommend the following New Double Red Strains: 
NEW RED DELICIOUS 
NORTHWESTERN STRAIN 
A Super Color and Top Quality Delicious 
The well-known variety, the best seller of all Apples, grown 
commercially in all Apple belts in the United States. 
This variety has all of the good qualities of the Common 
Delicious—the Solid Red Delicious is fast taking the place of 
the common variety .in the commercial field. The Solid Red 
Delicious colors two weeks ahead of the common variety—a 
solid red with no stripes. It can be picked hard ripe and have 
its full color. The storage qualities of this variety are excellent. 
VANCE DELICIOUS 
A SUPER STRAIN OF THE NEW RED DELICIOUS 
Originated as a sport in the orchard of R. G. Vance in Albe- 
marle County, Virginia. Has advantage over the%other Red 
Strains by coloring earlier. Equals all other Red Strains in 
size and quality, having a decided advantage by coloring fully 
ten days ahead of other Strains of Red Delicious. We consider 
this the best of all the New Red Delicious Strains. 

Lowry 
NEW RED DUCHESS 
The old Duchess was a good Fall Apple in its day, but we 
find the New Solid Red Duchess such an improvement that 
we have now discontinued offering the old strain. Medium size, 
solid bright red in color. Medium acid. Excellent for cooking. 
The New Solid Red Duchess colors early in the season, making 
possible early marketing, before the market is glutted with 
less desirable varieties. 
NEW RED JONATHAN 
Differs from the Standard Jonathan only by having more 
color and coloring earlier in the season. The Jonathan con- 
tinues to be one of our most popular commercial varieties. 
Its color is never bad, even when left on the tree until full ripe, 
but then it does not keep so well. The New Red Jonathan 
colors earlier and can be picked solid red before full ripe. 
This results in better keeping qualities and also prevents 
losses from dropping and wind storms. When considering 
planting Jonathan, by all means plant our New Double Red 
Strain. Becoming one of the most popular of the Red Strains. 
Especially recommended as a cross pollenizer. 
LOWRY 
A Virginia Origination, Becoming a Nationally 
Recognized Variety 
Now one of the most popular commercial varieties wherever 
grown, the Lowry originated at a high altitude on the eastern 
slope of the Blue Ridge in Nelson County. It is possibly the 
most promising variety Virginia has ever introduced. 
The Lowry Apple is sub-acid, bordering on sweet; very juicy 
and full of sugar; of mahogany red color covered with small 
white specks. It has a semi-long stem, and is a medium heavy 
bearer and a sure one. The yield of the Lowry will be as large 
as that of any other variety grown commercially in this sec- 
tion. The tree is a strong grower and an early bearer. 
_For many years the planting of Lowry was limited to Vir- 
ginia, but within recent years the variety has become na- 
tionally recognized and it is now being planted in almost all 
commercial Apple sections of the United States. The Lowry 
is recommended both as a commercial and home orchard 
variety. 
ALMOST A SURE BEARER 
Being most hardy in bud and frequently known to haye 
forced out retarded buds after the first crop had been killed— 
still producing a full crop of fruit.
