The Neu 
summer Apple 

Mantet is a new Apple that you are going to hear a lot about. It has in abun- 
dance the most important feature of a summer Apple—color. Mantet is red, a 
bright solid red all over. Because it is a uniform red all over it is the best colored 
summer Apple we have. 
It is early—ripening two weeks before Duchess and Beacon—making it a good 
companion Apple to Beacon. 
And last but not least, Mantet is of very high quality, being equalled only by 
Minnesota No. 714. 
Professor W. H. Alderman describes Mantet as follows: “This brilliant red, 
early summer Apple was originated at the Dominion Experiment Station at Mor- 
den, Manitoba, (Canada). Its dessert and culinary qualities are not excelled by 
any other variety of its season which is nearly two weeks ahead of Duchess.” 
With Mantet included, your orchard will ‘be the most talked of in the neigh- 
borhood. Plant Mantet this year so you may soon be enjoying this excellent new 
Apple.

Announcing A NEW 
The Best of the Earliest 
Mantet 

MINNESOTA No. 978 * * 
Minnesota No. 978 is another new Apple from the Minnesota Fruit 
Breeding Farm. In general being similar to Wealthy, Minnesota 978 is 
better because it is a solid red Apple that fruits every year and hangs to 
the tree remarkably well. It ripens immediately after Wealthy and keeps 
longer. Its dessert quality is good and its cooking quality is excellent. 
Consider these points of advantage: 
1. Solid red. 
2. Bears every year. 
3. Keeps longer than Wealthy. 
4. Clings to the tree. a 
Minnesota No. 978 will make more money for the commercial grower 
than will Wealthy and will be much more satisfactory for the home grower. 
Get an early start with this new variety by including some in your order 
this spring.
