WINTER VARIETIES 
(Continued from page 7) 
MOTHER. Medium sized red late Fall or early Winter 
variety. One of the latest Apples to bloom. Seldom 
killed by late Spring frosts. 
NORTHWESTERN GREENING. Medium to large, a 
clear greenish yellow. For eating and cooking. ‘Tree 
is not an early bearer but is hardy, prolific and long lived. 
PARAGON. Resembles Mammoth Black Twig very much 
but is a better bearer. We recommend in preference to 
the Mammoth Black Twig. 
ROME BEAUTY. Uniformly large, smooth; shaded and 
striped with bright red. Flesh tender, keen. A splendid 
Winter variety that has not been given the credit it 
merits. Blooms late and seldom fails. Always sells for 
as much as most other standard varieties. We, however, 
recommend the New Red Rome Strains instead. See 
page 9. 
STAYMAN WINESAP. One of the best known, most 
popular commercial varieties. Medium to large, conical, 
yellowish green background, red striped. Flesh fine 
and crisp, highly flavored. One of the most. delicious 
Apples grown. See page 9 for description of New Red 
Stayman, which has 100 per cent more color. 
SWEET PARADISE. Excellent quality; greenish yellow; 
sweet. Medium size. 

TURLEY. A new Stayman Winesap with more color than 
the Stayman and can be harvested earlier. Tree is a 
vigorous grower and early bearer. Fruit does not crack 
on tree, as is sometimes the case with the Stayman. 
The Turley originated in Indiana and has proven ex- 
tremely popular wherever it has been planted. 
VIRGINIA BEAUTY. A native of the State; an Apple of 
which Virginia is proud. Late Fall and early Winter. 
Resembling Red Delicious in quality and shape, but 
darker color. Excellent quality. 
WINESAP. A variety that has probably done as much 
as any other Apple in winning a reputation for Virginia 
Apples on all the markets of the world. Medium size; 
red skin, slightly streaked on yellow, flesh firm, crisp, 
rich, sub-acid. November to May.

New Red Rome 
YELLOW DELICIOUS. Conical-shaped, golden yellow 
Delicious, somewhat resembling Grimes Golden but 
larger. An early, prolific bearer. Popular as a home 
orchard variety, as well as a profitable commercial 
Apple. Recommended as a cross pollenizer. 
YORK IMPERIAL. Undoubtedly the most extensively 
planted commercial Apple in the famous Shenandoah 
Valley and Blue Ridge area of Virginia, West Virginia, 
and Pennsylvania. Greenish yellow background, red 
striped cheek. Prolific bearer; excellent keeper. In re- 
cent years the York Imperial is being replaced with its 
offspring, Yorking—a Solid Red York. See pages 4 and 5. 
YORKING. A sport of the York Imperial, differing by 
being a solid red and coloring two weeks earlier. See 
Yorking in natural color on page 5.

Dear Sirs: 
Plese send me your price list on Fruit Trees¥for Fall 1940 and 
Spring 1941. The trees and berries I received from you Fall of 1939 
have a good growth. Look like they have been set 2 or 3 years. 
Only lost 3 trees and the extra trees more than replaced them.

WINTER BANANA. A large golden yellow late Fall and 
early Winter Apple. Vigorous grower, early bearer, 
excellent quality.

Plants and Plantings 
Many people make the serious mistake of buying cheap 
plants, believing them to be “‘bargains.’’ Too often this type 
of plant proves to be the most expensive in the end. Fre- 
quently, unreliable nurseries and salesmen who do not repre- 
sent any particular nursery offer stock at prices far below 
that asked by reliable concerns. The result is usually stock 
of poor quality infested with insects and diseases and seldom 
true to name. Some general rules for purchasing nursery 
stock may be followed profitably. 
1. Buy only from a reliable nursery. This does not mean that 
the nursery should be a large one but that it should be quite 
widely known and its stock have a good reputation. 
2. Do not purchase stock from salesmen who do not repre- 
sent reliable companies, who make exaggerated claims for 
their stock, or for future service. Certain salesmen guarantee 
to care for the trees, pruning and spraying, for a specified 
number of years; but this service is seldom, if ever, rendered, 
once the money is collected from the buyer.
