Apple Growing Is a Failure If You Don’t Plant High Quality Trees — Insist on T. V. Nurseries Trees 
APPLES 
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 season. By 
making careful selection, a constant succession can be obtained. For family use there is no 
fruit that is more indispensable. No fruit is so healthful and many physicians say that if a per- 
son would eat an apple a day they could dispense with 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 for general planting:
