NORTHERN APPLE TREES 
Northern Growers should, by all means, order northern-grown trees. 
Gurney’s Dakota-grown trees are hardier—not only from the climate but 
from the fact that they are all budded on hardy Baccata roots. This 
means everything to the man planting trees who wants a tree 20 years 
from now. Gurney’s orchards are producing fruits 600 miles north of 
Yanktor. Our trees are all extra-strong grade and no tree without a per- 
fect root system is sent out to our customers. . You do get better trees 
for less money at Gurney’s.

keep until Christmas.

that is hardy in the Middle West.

apples and at a time most of us are 
“hungry” for them. A yellow apple,

um in size. For early apples, plant

skin with a slight greenish tinge. 
The flesh is crisp and mild. One of

keeping ability.

MeINTOSH RED 
Proven in the Dakotas 
Col. C. W. Gurney planted McIn- 
tosh Red on the home place in about 
1900. These are the oldest trees in 
our orchard and are bearing heavy 
crops of dark red, fragrant, high 
quality apples each season. These 
trees are grown in bush form with 
branches to the ground. Drouth and 
cold weather have never affected 
them. We recommend the Mcintosh 

MANITOBA or Gurney’s 
White Greening 
Juicy Ivory White 
This variety is a real SCORER TP Ue juicy 
ivory-white apple. Has stood drou and se- 
vere winters without injury. Vigorous up- 
right grower. Excellent for canning. Pear 
flavor and cans like a pear. If you want 
something different in apples, that is extra 
fine—here’s the apple to plant. 

PRAIRIE SPY 
Better Flavered Keeper 
Attractive red color, very high quality, is 
productive, and hangs to the tree well. Be- 
cause Prairie Spy is a good keeper and is so 
much better quality than Winesap and oth- 
ers on the market after Christmas, it is 
widely planted for home use and for market.

HARALSON 
Hardiest of All Winter Apples 
This is the hardiest of the commercial 
Winter Apples. If I add up all of the good 
qualities of all of the other Apples and say 
“this is Haralson,” I would not be saying too 
much for this big, red juicy fruit that keeps 
till summer, and is borne heavily and an- 
nually on a sturdy, strong branched tree. 
Bears fruit in three years. A Minnesota 
Production.

ANISIM 
Hardy Russian Variety 
A Fail Russian variety, extremely hardy, 
and a heavy, extra early bearer. It is a 
juicy, “‘snappy” apple, bright red in color. 
No Northern orchard is complete without 
Anisim, and it is a good commercial va- 
riety. Hardy. ;
