Staymared trees. This year (when only 2 years old) I 
picked 32 nice all-over-red apples from one.of them. It 
looked so good I thought I would get a picture of it, so 
I am enclosing two exposure.’—J. S. Webster, Franklin 
County, Va. 
“Apple are wonderful. I picked over a bushel from 4- 
year-old trees. These apples would put your catalog pic- 
tures to shame.”—Alfred Tracey, Ohio. 
“The lot of trees I planted one year ago had quite a 
surprise for me this Spring. Chuck fool of bloom. Surely 
will be a good bearer.’——Hans Kisbaum, Iowa. 
An average of 9 bushels per 6-year tree is the amazing 
crop reported by Rising Springs Orchards of Pike Co., 
Ill. “We picked them twice and color was good enough 
on all of them for U. S. Fancy. Size of the apples ran 
2%4 inches and larger. Some trees bore 14 to 15 bushels 
per tree. A beautiful crop.” 
“T certainly am glad I took your suggestion and planted 
Jon-A-Red instead of Jonathan. Your Jon-A-Red came 
into light bearing for me the third year. Now 6 years 
old, they average from 5 to 6 bushels per tree. Beautiful 
all-over flashy red fruit which sold for 35c¢ to 40c more 
than the same grade Jonathan. 
“These Jon-A-Red color up away ahead of the Jona- 
thans. Neither I nor any of my friends who grow Jona- 
thans have been able to get good color until you people 
sold us Jon-A-Reds. That flashy finish certainly does the 
job.”—Les Smith, ex-president, Ill. Hort. Society. 
“Wherever I happened to be in Michigan,” reports 
Stickney Stark, “Jon-A-Red seems to’ be entirely replac- 
ing Jonathan because of its extra fine flavor, all-over-red 
color and the extra profits it brings.” 
Ward Lockwood told me: “If Stark Bro’s don’t do 
anything else for the Michigan growers, they gave them 
the Jon-A-Red apple.”
