vania, was one of Virginia's most profitable 
commercial and home orchard varieties. No

OUR LARGEST SELLER from its position at the top of the ladder 
untilits offspring YORKING, The York Supreme, was introduced 12 years ago. 
The YORKING is a sport of the famous York Imperial, differing by being a 
solid red and coloring 2 or 3 weeks earlier. The YORKIEING has now almost en- 
tirely displaced the York Imperial in new plantings. This new solid red sport is 
one of the few Apples ever to be honored witha U.S. Patent. 10c. extra per tree. 
DOUBLE RED MCINTOSH. A selected bright red sport of McIntosh. Exten- 
sively grown in New York and New England states. Late Fall Apple in Virginia, 
Winter Apple farther North. 
SONATHAN. A well known commercial variety. Medium size; greenish back- 
ground, red cheek, white flesh. Ready for market early Winter. 
LADY. Small, golden background, red blush; highly flavored; excellent quality. 
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. 25c. 
extra per tree. 
LOWRY. Virginia ranks high as an Apple producing State—growing many good 
varieties. Among her leading varieties is the Lowry, which originated in Nelson 
County, Virginia and is now becoming one of the State’s most profitable Apples 
as well as it is being commercially planted in almost, all other Apple growing 
sections of the United States. The Lowry is medium to large, mahogany 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 remarkable keeper: keeps even better than the De- 
licious in cold storage. 10c. extra per tree. (See illustration page 5.) 
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 better prices. There 
are numerous strains of Rome Sports. This particular strain originated in the 
Northwest and is known by some as C & O Red Rome. May be harvested 
2 weeks ahead of Rome. 

MACOUN. A late McIntosh, possessing better color and keeping qualities. 
M.B. TWIG. A well known, large red Apple of the Winesap family. Firm, long 
keeper. A shy bearer. 
N. W. GREENING. One of the few green skinned Apples in popular demand. 
Large, greenish yellow. Good cooker and an excellent keeper. Prolific bearer. 
ROME BEAUTY. A well known commercial variety. Firm, yellow meat; late 
keeper and good shipper. Large size, mild sub-acid; early, regular bearer; late 
bloomer, frequently escaping late Spring frosts when some other varieties fail. 
A good Winter variety to include in your home orchard, as well as a profitable 
commercial Apple.

PARAGON WINESAP. Resembles M. B. Twig but is a better 
bearer and is recommended in preference to the M. B. Twig. 
oTAYMAN WINESAP. One of the best known, most ex- 
tensively planted of Winter varieties. Large, green back- 
ground, red stripe. Rich, crisp, tender, yellow meat. Excel- 
lent cooker, as well as for eating from hand. Its only fault 
is cracking in wet weather and being somewhat shy of color. 
SWEET PARADISE. At one time there were many Sweet 
Apples offered by nurseries, but they have been dropped one 
by one until there are only two or three to be found in nur- 
sery catalogues. Sweet Paradise, considered the best, is still 
in demand, especially in the home orchard and in the old- 
time cellar, where it will keep throughout Winter. 
TURLEY WINESAP. An Improved Stayman, resembling 
the Standard Stayman closely but is less subject to cracking 
and has better color. 
VIRGINIA BEAUTY. A native of the State, an Apple of 
which Virginia is proud. Late Fall and early Winter. 
Resembles Red Delicious in quality and shape, but darker 
color. Excellent quality. 
VIRGINIA CRAB. Medium size, golden yellow, jelly Crab. 
Late bloomer, prolific bearer, seldom failing. Will produce 
crops with as little attention as any Apple we know. Tree 
ornamental as well as fruitful. 
WINESAP. A variety that has probably done as much as any 
other Apple in winning a reputation for Virginia Apples on 
all markets of the world. It is also popular in almost all 
other parts of the U. S. and comes as near being adapted to 
all soils and climates as any Apple we know of. Medium 
size, red skin slightly streaked on yellow; flesh firm, crisp, 
sub-acid. November to May. 
WINTER BANANA. Large, golden yellow, red cheek Winter 
‘variety. Very aromatic; spicy flavor. Vigorous grower,
