DWARF APPLES 
These little trees, budded 
on the famous semi-dwarf 
rootstock, Malling No. 1 
are just the thing for the 
home garden. Most varie- 
ties start fruiting the first 
or second year after plant- 
ing. Fruit is larger than on 
standard trees and most of 
it can be picked from the 
ground without using a 
ladder. Production is heavy 
for a small tree. (Note fruit- 
ing branch of McIntosh on 
back cover). Height at ma- 
turity for semi-dwarfs 10— 
15’. Recommended _plant- 
ing distance 15x15’. Plant 
more than one variety for 
proper pollination. 
We can also supply North- 
ern Spy on Malling No. IX. 
This is the very dwarfing 
stock that seems to be the 
best stock for this variety. 
Trees are much smaller, 
6-8’ at maturity and bear 
second or third year. ‘his is a great advantage as Northern Spy standard trees are. 
late in bearing, usually at least 8-10 years before first fruit is produced. 

We can supply Northern Spy and McIntosh on Malling 9 — same price, same size tree. 
Prices: 2 yr., 3-31, foot Malling No. 1 (Semi Dwarf). Each $2.75; 3 for $8.00. 
Varieties available (Semi Dwarf): McIntosh, Cortland, Red Astrachan, R. I. Greening, 
Northern Spy, Red Delicious.
