NORTHERN 
ROOTED 
Reliable Old Favorites 
ANOKA—A summer apple that ripens very 
early. Sometimes bears second year after 
planting, but fruit lacks quality. Beacon and 
Van Buren produce better fruit.

late fall apple developed by New York Experi- 
ment Station. Fruit resembles McIntosh, but 
is more firm, yet just as juicy. Cortland does 
not drop as readily before picking and ships 
better. Bright red color, top-notch quality.

that’s dependable only in the most favorable 
areas of southern Minnesota and further south,

handsome green fruit, turning yellow when

Duchess type, but with better color—it’s solid 
red! Ripens in Duchess season, it’s just as 
hardy, it has all the good qualities of Duchess, 
but much more attractive.

ular late fall apples. Bright red, large size, 
with juicy, sprightly flavor. A good eating 
apple that yields heavily and keeps into De- 
cember. Grown throughout Minnesota,

iar early yellow apple. Ripens very early,
