THE BEST 
in Hardy 
Northern-Grown 
APPLES 
for Ealing 
and Caching 
We have always been interested in 
good Apples. This nursery was estab- 
lished 79 years ago and for nearly 50 = 
years of its early history was one of the 
large Apple tree nurseries of this section of the country. We are still 
interested in the work that is going on in the improvement of the Apple. 
The State of Minnesota maintains a large fruit-breeding farm. Here 
for years the breeding of new fruits has gone forward. 
Much work has been done with the Apple and many new high class 
varieties, hardy in this section, have been developed. These will be of 
great interest to every lover of a good Apple. 
Try some of these new Apples. Every one is hardy. Every one is 
of Superior Quality.

THE ANOKA APPLE 
A Dwarf Apple for the Family Garden 
The Apple Tree That is Different From Ail Other Apples 
Anoka is a new Apple produced by that great plant wizard of South Dakota, Professor Niels 
Hansen. The tree starts to bear very young, often producing Apples on two-year-old trees in 
the nursery row and is a heavy annual bearer. The fruit has much the appearance of Duchess 
of Oldenburg but is smaller, and a little more oblong, and does not show quite so much color. 
Ripens very early, beginning around August 15th. We like it much better than Yellow Trans- 
parent as it is not so acid. 4 to 5 ft., $1.15 
BEACON (Minnesota). The best new fall Apple now on the market: Ripens with Duchess 
and will keep six weeks. A medium-sized, all-over deep red Apple with very minute white 
spots. A great bearer, and an Apple of beautiful appearance. Makes a wonderful market ~ 
Apple as it looks so fine. This is a very high quality Apple. 4 to 5 ft., $1.50 
FIRESIDE (Minnesota No. 993). This is the quality Apple of all Apples. Better than a Deli- 
cious and as good as a Grimes or a Spitzenberg. A large Apple, a light creamy yellow in 
color overlaid with a light green with a slight flush of very light red. The Apple keeps all 

Anoka, Fruiting Heavily 2 Years After Planting 
HARALSON (Minnesota). This is the first of the great line of winter 
Apples to be sent out by the Minnesota Station and has revolution- 
ized Apple growing in this section of the country. Haralson, when 
kept thinned on the tree, is a large red Apple. Young trees bear 
heavily each year. The Apples will keep all winter in the ordinary 
cellar. One of our private schools here found a box of Haralson last 
fall in their cellar still in good condition when they purchased their 
new supply of Haralson again in the fall. Haralson has proved a 
successful commercial Apple to grow in the Baldwin Apple region 
of New England and New York. A tolsstts. Slelo 
MINJON APPLE. One of the new Minnesota Apples recently named. 
This Apple was tested over a period of twenty years under many 
trying conditions before it was introduced. It has the ear marks of 
being one of the best Apples ever brought out. A brilliant all-over 
red of medium size and of the highest quality. Flesh yellow with a 
tinge of red beneath the skin. It follows the Wealthy in season and 
keeps from late fall to Christmas. 4 to 5 ft., $1.50 
MINNESOTA No. 714. Here is a superb Apple that we have been 
watching ever since it was first sent out for trial. A very early sum- 
mer Apple, the earliest of all. As a rule early summer Apples lack 
real quality but No. 714 has it. A pleasant mild-flavored Apple. 
An A-l eating Apple. No. 714 is a great big cone-shaped Apple, 
the shape of a big Delicious. Just the sized Apple to satisfy the 
appetite of a good husky 12-year-old boy. 4 to 5 ft., $1.50

winter and the quality is mild and simply superb. The tree is perfectly hardy here.

PRAIRIE SPY. (Minnesota No. 1007.) Prof. Alderman, Chief of Horti- 
culture, University of Minnesota, says of Prairie Spy: “It is an even 
better keeper than the Haralson and is the best quality winter Apple 
available in late winter and early spring.” Benjamin F. Dunn, Presi- 
dent, Minnesota State Horticultural Society, says of Prairie Spy: “Our 
beautiful red Prairie Spy Apple is a late keeping winter Apple of 
EXCEPTIONAL quality. The trees are hardy, vigorous and pro- 
ductive. This is indeed a good luck Apple for the farmer, city home 
owner and the commercial grower.” Besides quality, it has the other 
features required for a popular Apple. 4 to 5 ft, $1.50

A 
VICTORY. (Minnesota 396.) Another splendid Apple from the Min- 
nesota Station. This Apple is of the McIntosh type in appearance 
of fruit and flavor. But the fruit holds to the tree much better than 
the McIntosh. Slightly more acid than McIntosh and so superior as 
a culinary Apple. Fine to eat from hand and fine to cook.

WHITNEY CRAB. This is one Crab Apple that is universally liked, 
In over 50 years that we have sold the Whitney Crab we have never 
heard a word of anything but praise for it. When the fruit is kept 
from overbearing it is a large conical-shaped Crab with a mild, sweet 
flavor that makes it nice to eat from hand. Also makes wonderful 
sweet pickles. 4:toisit.. $1.15
