A pples 
No other fruit is so dependable and generally desirable as the Apple. They will 
thrive in almost any well-drained soil. Their period of ripening extends from early 
July until frost and they can be kept through 
the entire winter. For family use there is no 
other fruit so indispensable. With moderate 
care they will pay a handsome return on your 
efforts and investment. We have kept our list 
of varieties up to date and you can plant any 
of them with confidence. Arranged in order of 
ripening as to season.
