to devote to fruit trees. It furnishes a selection of va- 
rieties practically covering the entire season from early 
summer to late autumn. The tree itself is a good, sturdy 
9-16 in. apple tree to which has been grafted five buds 
of different varieties. These five varieties are Yellow 
Transparent, Red Delicious, Yellow Delicious, Jonathan, 
and Winesap. We suggest that you order your Quin- 
tuplet early, as last year we were sold out long before 
the season ended.
