McINTOSH 
Prairie Spy 
(Minn. No. 1007) 
Hardy, Red, High Quality 
Winter Apple 
Here is another outstanding orig- 
ination of the Minnesota State Fruit 
Breeding Farm. As the name indi- 
cates, Prairie Spy, has many of the 
fine characteristics of that famous 
old apple of the East, The Northern 
Spy. It has aptly been described as 
“KR large red apple with quality 
equal to any late winter variety re- 
gardless of where grown.” 
High points of Prairie Spy’s claims to 
fame are: 
The fruit is large, attractive red, excep- 
tionally high quality, long keeper, clings 
to the tree until picked. A true winter 
apple. 
The tree is vigorous, productive 
and hardy, except in highly unfavor- 
able locations. In northern areas 
where growing season is very short 
the tree holds up but fruit colors 
poorly. Does excellently as far nortb 
as the Twin Cities. 
Wealthy 
Minnesota’s Most Famous Apple 
The old favorite fall apple of corn 
and pumpkin time! Probably no eat- 
ing apple is more popular and more 
loved than Wealthy, and certainly 
no fruit raises more nostalgic mem- 
ories in those who have left Minne- 
sota. And no wonder, for Wealthy’s 
appetizing red appearance, its crisp, 
white, juicy flesh and_ sprightly 
flavor have endeared it to many. 
In spite of all the fine new varie- 
ties—Wealthy retains its popularity 
and will be largely planted for years 
to come!

“VEST POCKET ORCHARD” APPLE TREES 
SUPER HARDY—NORTHERN GROWN—EARLY BEARING 
Four to Nine Varieties on One Tree 
How often has the city home owner sighed for three or more varieties 
of apples when there was room for only one tree in his yard! To meet 
their needs we have developed Daniels Vest Pocket Orchard apple trees. 
By means of a painstaking process of grafting, we have developed trees 
which will bear 4, 5 and even up to nine different varieties on the one 
tree. Each variety is as perfect as if it had grown on a normal tree. We 
have used only the best varieties as Fireside, Minjon, Wealthy, Haralson, 
Dolgo, Daniels Red Duchess, McIntosh and Erickson. Aside from its 
utilitarian value, you will get more “bang” out of one of these trees 
bearing several varieties of fruit at once, than out of any other plant 
on your grounds. Order Early! 4 varieties $4.00; 5 varieties $5.00; 6 
varieties $6.00; 7 varieties $7.00; 8 varieties or more $7.50. Not mailable. 
THE CRAB APPLES 
We offer what ‘we consider the 
four finest crabs for eating, jelly, 
pickling, and as hardy top-working 
stocks. The new Chestnut has been 
aptly called the “Super” Crab.

(Minn. No. 240) 
A New “Super Crab” 
(See description on Page 17) 
Dolgo Crab 
Dolgo is generally conceded to be 
the most beautiful of all apple trees. 
It is heavily laden with large white 
flowers at blossom time, and later 
the brilliant red fruit is borne freely 
in beautiful rope-like clusters, among 
dense foliage of vivid, dark green. 
The fruit is oblong in shape, of rare 
beauty and has a very unusual lemon-like 
flavor. Far superior to other crabs for 
jellies, producing a transparent bright red 
jelly of high quality. Will jell even when 
dead ripe. | : 
When in full bloom the tree is 
very decorative, and again in early 
fall when the fruit is ripening the 
high red color of the fruit makes this 
tree worth while just for ornamental 
and lawn purposes. 
Virginia Crab 
One of the oldest and most de- 
pendable crabs. Tree large, vigorous 
and heavy bearer. Very hardy. Un- 
surpassed as a stock for top-working 
to less hardy varieties. 
Whitney Crab 
A large crab, generally considered 
the nicest eating of all crabs—and by 
many the best eating apple of its 
season—early fall. Large in size for 
a crab, well colored, with crisp flesh 
and a delightful flavor. A hardy, 
strong, very upright grower. 
If “an apple a day keeps the Doctor away”... then 
plant some Daniels apple trees and grow your own 
“Doctor chasers.” They bring fun, health and profit. 

“CAN'T WAITERS” 
Apples for the Man Who Can‘t Wait! 
So, so often people ask us for trees 
that will bear right away. “I must 
have something that will fruit right 
away—I'm getting old and can’t wait 
forever,” is what they say. S0, we’re 
growing for the “can’t waiter’ an 
extra large, fine transplanted tree all 
ready to go to work for you—and 
for lack of a more “pat” title we call 
them our “CAN’T WAITERS.” 
We have a nice block of these in 
several varieties in limited numbers. 
They are pretty large to ship, so 
we suggest delivery or pick up ser- 
vice, 
They are priced at from $3.00 to 
$7.50 each, depending upon size. 
But better order early—they are 
really scarce.
