The Apple is the first in importance of all fruits. It will thrive on nearly any well-drained soil. Its 
period of ripening, unlike other fruits, extends nearly through the whole year. By making careful selec- 
tion, a constant succession can be obtained. For family use there is no fruit that is more indispensable. No 
fruit is so ee oe peas say oe if a person would eat an apple a day they could dispense with 
5 doctor bills. Besides this, and just as important, is the fact 
that the average price on the market is steadily increasing 
and the immense demand for home consumption, foreign 
shipping, canning and evaporating assures high prices. The 
apple, if given the same care and attention as other farm 
crops, will yield greater returns per acre. The following list 
we consider to be the best.

Three Popular Summer Varieties . . . 
ANOKA—The New Wonder Apple. It usually bears the second year. 
Think of the enormous saving of time. The originator, Prof. N. E. 
Hansen, says: “Anoka is probably the earliest and heaviest bearing 
apple in the world at the present time and is attracting world-wide 
attention.” It is like Duchess in flavor and looks, but flavor is said 
to be better. July and August. 
DUCHESS—For several years the Duchess has been one of the most 
popular varieties of summer apples. Hardy everywhere, bears abun- 
dantly and is very productive. Season August, color red. 
apple for the Middle West. Known by some as the harvest apple. 
Excellent quality, hardy and very productive. July and August.
