SUMMER and FALL APPLES 
(Continued) 
RED DUCHESS. Differs from the Standard Duchess by 
hav-ng more color and coloring earlier in the season. 
We recommend this Double Red Strain. An excellent 
home orchard variety, as well as one of the leading com- 
mercial varieties, having good color and being prolific. 
(See illustration.) 
SMOKEHOUSE. An old home orchard favorite which still 
deserves a place in every family orchard. Medium to 
large, firm, greenish background, red striped. Ripens 
over a period of several weeks, which makes it ideal for 
home use. Excellent for cooking and for eating from 
hand when full ripe. 
SUMMER RAMBO. In Virginia and adjoining States 
there is possibly no other variety found in so many or- 
chards. This famous old Apple is so well known that no 
home orzhard is believed to be complete without it. It is 
also popular with many of the commercial growers, as it 
is always in demand at good prices. Large, red striped. 
You cannot go wrong in planting the Summer Rambo. 
SUMMER YELLOW DELICIOUS. Another golden yel- 
low Summer Apple; resembles the Winter Yellow Deli- 
cious, but ripens in July. 
WILLIAMS EARLY RED. Considered by many as the 
best commercial Summer Red Apple. Has been a money 
maker for commercial growers. Also an excellent home 
orchard Apple. Large for an Apple of its season. Ripens 
around the middle of July. The trees are good growers 
and prolific bearers; fruit beautiful in appearance and 
a good shipper. 
YELLOW TRANSPARENT. A well known, transparent 
to golden yellow Apple. Among the first yellow varieties 
to ripen. In our opinion, the Yellow Transparent will be 
somewhat displaced by the Lodi. 
WINTER APPLES 
In speaking of Winter Apples we refer to varieties which 
are harvested in late Fall and may be kept in storage for 
Winter and next Spring use. A large percent of the commer- 
cial crop consists of Winter varieties. However, some of the 
Summer or Fall varieties are now proving equally as 
profitable. 
ALBEMARLE PIPPIN (Newtown Pippin). Its name 
was taken from Albemarle County, Virginia, where it has 
been one of Virginia’s most popular export Apples. 
Known in other parts of the country as Newtown Pippin. 
Large, solid green Apple; very crisp; deliciousin late Win- 
ter and Spring, when it is at its best. Good keeper. 
BEN DAVIS. An old variety of poor quality, but a good 
bearer, keeper, and pollinator. Medium size, red striped. 
CORTLAND. An improved McIntosh; longer keeper; 
- larger, deeper red. Not often planted south of New 
York State. : 

En 
Red Duchess 
DELICIOUS. Possibly one of the best 
known Winter varieties. Large, red 
striped, almost sweet. Late Fall and 
Winter. Good keeper in storage. Ex- 
tensively grown and planted as a com- 
mercial variety, as well as in home or- 
chards. In the past few years the 
Standard Delicious is being replaced to 
a great extent by the Vance Delicious or 
some of the other Double Red Strains. 
JONATHAN. A well known commercial 
variety. Medium size; greenish back- 
ground, red cheek, white flesh. Ready 
for market early Winter. Still popular 
as a commercial variety. However, we 
now recommend the New Red Jonathan. 
LADY. Small, golden background, red 
blush; highly flavored; excellent qual- 
ity. Extremely popular for decoration 
purposes on dining room and dining car 
tables and eating from hand. The fruit 
is rare and sells for unusually high 
prices. 10c. extra per tree. 
DOUBLE RED 
STAYMAN 
The Stayman Winesap continues 
to be one of the most popular com- 
mercial varieties of the East, but in 
recent years the original strain of 
Stayman is being replaced by its 
offspring, the Double Red Stay- 
man, which has all the good quali- 
ties of its popular parent and the 
advantage of more color and color- 
ing earlier in the season. This 
means more Number One Apples, 
better prices, and bigger profits. 
This popular commercial variety 
is one of our best sellers for both 
commercial and home _ orchard 
planting.

DOUBLE RED 
DELICIOUS 
The Standard Deli- 
_ cious is too well known 
to require a detailed 
description. The New 
Double Red Delicious 
is identically the same 
as the Standard Deli- 
cious wit! the excep- 
tion of co1or—being a 
solid red—and coloring 
two to three weeks 
earlier. This means a 
tremendous commer- 
cial advantage, as well 
as the home orchard 
owner prefers Solid 
Red Apples to half 
green ones. So we 
recommend the Dou- 
ble Red Delicious in 
place of the Standard 
Delicious, which we 
also list. (See dllustra- 
tion on Front Cover.) 
DOUBLE RED 
JONATHAN 
An improvement over the well 
known Jonathan—having more 
color and coloring earlier. This 
means more profit to the commer- 
cial grower and to the home grow- 
er, more attractive Apples. 

LOWRY. Virginia ranks high as an Apple 
producing State—growing many good 
varieties. Among her leading varieties 
is the Lowry, which originated in Nel- 
son County, Virginia andis now becom- 
ing one of the State’s most profitabl- 
Apples as well asit is being commerciale 
ly planted in almost all other Apple 
growing sections of the United States. 
The Lowry is medium to large, mahog- 
any red, as sweet as the Delicious but is 
more easily grown and sells for fully as 
much. An ideal Apple for the roadside 
stand and truck trade as well as it makes 
a beautiful cold storage pack and is a re- 
markable keeper; keeps even better than 
the Delicious in cold storage. 10c. extra 
per tree. (See zllustration.) 
DOUBLE RED 
ROME 
_ Another of the many Red Sports 
improving on their parent variety 
by being a Solid Red, which means 
more Number One Apples and bet- 
ter prices. There are numerous 
strains of Rome Sports. This par- 
ticular strain originated in the 
Northwest and is known by some 
as C & O Red Rome.
