HARALSON x * * 
The Commercial Grower's Favorite 
Size and Color Ideal 
Prof. W. H. Alderman says of Haral- 
son: “Its size, shape, and color are just 
right for an ideal commercial Apple. The 
tree is extremely vigorous, productive and 
hardy. The branches spring at wide angles 
from the central trunk and are very strong 
in the crotches. The fruit will keep in 
ordinary cellar throughout the winter 
without artificial refrigeration.” 
Bears Early and Heavily 
Haralson Apple trees come into bear- 
ing quickly, producing a paying crop be- 
fore most other varieties begin. We have 
records of 10-year-old trees producing 10 
bushels to the tree. The trees are strongly 
branched and carry heavy loads without 
breaking down.

22 Out of 24 Growers 
Choose Haralson 
In 1945 The Minnesota Fruit Grower 
Magazine wrote to a number of commer: | 
cial orchardists in Minnesota asking them 
to list the Apple varieties they would 
plant if they were to plant that spring. 
Their answers revealed that 22 out of 24 
of them would plant Haralson, one re- 
porting that he would plant as high as 
70% Haralson, another as high as 50%. 
To sum up the survey, The Minnesota 
Fruit Grower said: “It is obvious that 
Haralson is the leading choice for planting 
at the present time.”

PRAIRIE SPY *** The Dual Purpose, Quality Winter Apple 
Extremely High Quality 
Prairie Spy is for discriminating people— 
those who are not satisfied with common 
Apples. It’s for people who appreciate extra 
fine quality. 
Prof. Alderman says: 
Prof. Alderman, Chief of Horticulture, 
University of Minnesota, says of Prairie Spy: 
“It is an even better keeper than the Haral- 
son and is the best quality winter Apple 
Bears Young 
Henry W. Leidel, prominent fruit 
grower of Winona County, says: “In my 
estimation Prairie Spy is a profitable tree 
to grow. It bears very young. I have a 

available in late winter and early spring. 
It has a little tendency to overbear in alter- 
nate years and may require thinning at such 
time to produce fruits of maximum size and 
finish. I have been watching this Apple for 
over 15 years at the Fruit Breeding Farm 
and have always felt that it was destined to 
become a valuable Apple for this part of 
the country. My confidence is still un- 
shaken.” 
Prairie Spy has this exceptional quality— 
not only for eating, but for cooking as well. 
What is more, you can enjoy it over a long 
period, all through winter and early spring, 
long after other quality Apples are off the 
market. It has no competition in a late 
keeping high quality Apple. 
Benjamin F, Dunn, Past President, Min- 
nesota 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 productive.” 
Besides quality, it has the other features 
required for a popular Apple.

and a half of well-colored Apples last fall.” 

Superintendent Leslie of the Morden, 
Manitoba, Experiment Station, writes that 
Haralson and Prairie Spy thrive in southern 
Manitoba. The Prairie Spy Apple, he says, 
is a “‘very fine variety, large, bright red and 
excellent in flavor.”
