THE LEADING COMMERCIAL APPLE 
In addition to being almost a perfect Apple for the 
home orchard, Haralson is being planted extensively in 
commercial orchards. Wide-awake planters are switch- 
ing to Haralson. It is the first Apple we have ever had 
that we can sincerely say can be grown on a commercial 
scale in competition with Jonathan and similar Apples 
shipped into this territory. 
HARALSON IN GREAT DEMAND 
The market demands a good sized, red, long keeping 
Apple. Haralson fully satisfies all these qualifications 
and in addition, stands handling and shipping well. 
BEARS YOUNG 
Haralson is a prolific bearer, and the orchard trees yield 
very young. They often start bearing the second year 
after planting. The tree is strong and they carry heavy 
loads without splitting the branches. Originated and 
introduced by the Minnesota State Fruit Breeding Farm. 
JEWEL WINTER. A very attractive, bright 
red Apple. Quality good, keeping until mid- 
winter. A good commercial and home orchard 
Apple. 
JONATHAN. Well known variety recom- 
mended only for sheltered locations, for re- 
gions south of St. Paul. Dark red, high 
quality, and a very good keeper. 
MALINDA. One of the hardiest longer 
keeping Apples that can be grown in this 
locality. Flesh is yellowish white, juicy, and 
keeps until late winter. Good quality.

Northwestern 
Greening 
McINTOSH. Originally an eastern Apple but has been found 
to be hardy in Minnesota and the Northwest. A deep red Apple 
of exceptionally high quality. Ripens October 1st, and keeps 
until mid-winter. 
MELBA. A McIntosh seedling from Canada. Attractive, bright 
red color. Season, a little later than Duchess. Quality good. 
NORTHWESTERN GREENING. A late winter Apple. The 
tree is a vigorous grower and fairly hardy. Fruit is very large, 
yellowish green when ripe. An excellent pie and baking Apple. 
PATTEN’S GREENING. This Apple is popular on account 
of its hardiness and heavy yielding qualities. Fruit is large, green 
with pink blush. Tree is thrifty and grows in a spreading form. 
Season is September. 
PRAIRIE SPY. New—Long Keeping—High Quality. Prairie’ 
Spy is a very promising Apple and in our opinion is probably 
one of the best of the recent introductions of the Minnesota State 
Fruit Breeding Farm. It is a medium to large Apple, ripening 
late, and an exceptionally good keeper. It keeps, with ordinary 
storage, even better than Haralson. Fruit is completely covered 
with carmine-red stripes and is very attractive. Quality good. The 
tree apparently is perfectly hardy but we do not recommend 
planting it in Northern Minnesota, as the season is not long 
enough to properly mature the fruit.
