“BUD SELECTED” 
Improved Varieties 
“Bud Selection” is most important for safe, profitable in- - 
vestment in Apple orchards. It retains all desirable quali- 
ties of tree and fruit, preventing deterioration usually 
caused by budding from transitional trees mixed with 
undesirable variations. And, since all varieties tend to de- 
teriorate, it is of greatest importance that propagating buds 
be taken from sources of KNOWN desirability. For these 
reasons, following lists of “GREENING BUD SELECTED” 
Apple trees offer you your choice of the best quality stock avail- 
able, stock of KNOWN performance, and with all of the desirable 
characteristics that spell better crops, bigger profits. RED DUCHESS
