those of McIntosh. The crop. ripens 10 days later than that of Yellow 
Transparent. Requires severe thinning. 
Greendale—its name suggests green color and it is handsome green in color 
like its parent, Lodi, while it is shaped like its other parent, McIntosh. 
The combination of these two characters has resulted in an attractive, 
trimly shaped, green apple. Its quality, too, is as good as its appearance — 
excellent for both eating and cooking. To extend the season of Lodi this 
sort is unsurpassed for a roadside trade which desires a good green apple 
late in August. 
Haralson—has been fruiting in Minnesota, the State of its origin, for 25 
years. It is valued in the Northwest as a late-keeping, culinary winter 
apple and as being notably hardy in bud. For the latter reason, Haralson 
is offered to those association members who require hardy varieties. The 
tree is an upright grower, vigorous, and productive. The fruit is about the 
size of Wealthy, hangs well, colors to an attractive red and will keep in 
cold storage until spring. It is not a richly flavored apple but its other good 
points, especially hardiness, merit its trial. Like Wealthy, the fruit must be 
thinned as the trees get older in order to keep up the size. 
Kendall—is handsomely colored over the entire surface with dark red cov- 
ered with a rich bloom. Its season is about that of McIntosh, but it keeps 
a little longer. The apples are large, trim in outline, and, when properly 
ripened, possess the whitish, fine-grained flesh of McIntosh. The flavor is . 
more sprightly than that of McIntosh. The apples hang better than 
McIntosh but not as well as Cortland. 
Lobo (a Canadian variety)—precedes its parent McIntosh in season. It is 
larger and darker red with more conspicuous dots. The flavor is subacid 
with some of the McIntosh aroma. The apples hang to the tree better than 
McIntosh. It is a variety primarily adapted south of the McIntosh area. 
Lodi—is a cross between Montgomery and Yellow Transparent, The tree and 
fruit resemble the Yellow Transparent but the fruits are larger and ripen 
a little later, and the tree bears annually. Lodi is becoming a commercial 
apple. 
Macoun—is a cross between McIntosh and Jersey Black. In shape, the fruits 
of Macoun are similar to those of McIntosh but the color is darker red and 
less striped, The flesh is much the same in color, texture, flavor and aroma 
as McIntosh. The trees bear regularly and heavily and require thinning. 
Due to the Macoun’s excellent quality and high color, it offers promise. 
Must be picked with or just after McIntosh. 
Medina—is an apple of the Delicious type and prolongs the season of that 
variety. The apples resemble those of Delicious but are larger. The shape 
of the basin is like that of Delicious with the same deep corrugations and 
the five distinct crowns. Recommended for trial where Delicious grows too 
small and where apples color well.
