LOCATION OF OUR 
NURSERIES 
OUR NURSERY IS LOCATED JUST OFF 
HIGHWAY 61, AT THE ST. PAUL CITY 
LIMITS, ACROSS THE RIVER FROM 
SOUTH ST. PAUL. We invite our customers to 
come and select their own stock. However, mail 
and telephone orders receive our personal 
attention and we assure you that we will select 
your stock with the utmost care. 

ORDER EARLY! 
Order early while our assortment is complete. 
We have a very fine lot of stock this year but 
as the season progresses we always run short 
of some varieties. Be sure to specify on your 
order whether or not we can substitute equally 
desirable varieties provided we are out of some 
of the items.

PRAIRIE SPY 
New—Long Keeping—High Quality 
Prairie Spy, previously known as Minnesota 
No. 1007, is a very promising apple and in our 
opinion is probably the best of the recent intro- 
ductions of the Minnesota State Fruit Breeding 
Farm. It is a medium to large apple, ripening 
late, and an exceptionally good keeper. It 
keeps, with ordinary storage, even better than 
Haralson. Fruit is completely covered with 
carmine red stripes and is very attractive. 
Quality good. The tree apparently is perfectly 
hardy, but we do not recommend planting it in 
Northern Minnesota as the season is not long 
enough to properly mature the fruit. 
WEALTHY 
THE MONEY-MAKER 
Wealthy is still our leading apple of its season. 
Ripens in early September and keeps until the 
holidays. Wealthy has undoubtedly made more 
money for the commercial growers in Minnesota 
and adjoining states than any other variety. The 
fruit is medium to large in size, and colors up 
to a beautiful red. Quality—Exceptionally 
good. The tree is very hardy and a heavy 
yielder.
