You can now succeed with an apple orchard where 
you failed before. The new hardier hybrid and selected 
varieties will thrive and bear fruit in the North and 
West, where climatic conditions are most severe. 
They have inherited from their Russian par- 
ents extreme hardiness and much earlier bear- 
ing habits than the older common kinds. You 
can depend on these withstanding very severe 
conditions and bearing quicker than the old 
standard kinds. 
If soil and climatic conditions generally are 
favorable for farm crops and gardens, these ap- 
ples will succeed with good care. 

Even the city home can profit by planting fruit trees. 
They are very desirable for rear lawn planting where 
their shade is welcome and their beautiful and fragrant 
flowers and autumn colors are always a joy. What is 
nicer than to be able to pick some fresh fruit from your

THE ABOVE APPLES GREW ON TREES IN NURSERY ROW 
... TREES THAT WERE DELIVERED TO OUR CUSTOMERS 
THE FOLLOWING SPRING. 
HARALSON. A production of Minnesota ing variety. Its quality is at least equal, 

Fruit Breeding Farm. It should be plant- 
ed in the family orchard in northern Ne- 
braska, northern Iowa, Dakota, Minne- 
sota and Wyoming. It seems to stand 
the climate fully as well as any of the 
Russian varieties and is the first real 
winter variety introduced for that ex- 
treme territory. It will grow and give 
satisfaction all over our territory, but it 
is especially needed in the North and 
West, and there is where it should be 
used. Large, bright red, juicy, sub-acid, 
good quality. Bears young and heavily. 
PRAIRIE SPY. Originated by Minnesota 
Fruit Breeding Farm. It is said to equal 
Jonathan in quality. One of the new Col- 
lege-bred varieties that are extending the 
apple growing region several hundred 
miles north. When Prof. Alderman first 
spoke of this apple, he made the follow- 
ing statement, “A most unusual, promis- 
if not superior, to any variety grown in 
the United States.” Good red color, me- 
dium size and mid-winter keeper. Super- 
intendent Leslie of the Morden Manitoba 
Experiment Station says that Prairie Spy 
thrives in southern Manitoba. It is a 
very fine variety. 
RED DUCHESS. A “Sport” from regular 
Duchess of Oldenburg, having a solid red 
color occurring earlier than the striped 
color of the regular Duchess. Fruit is 
medium to large, beautiful, ripening in 
August, but makes excellent sauce and 
pies as early as July when only half 
grown. A good, early and annual bearer. 
Very hardy. 
WEALTHY. A natural or accidental hybrid 
from Minnesota, with Russian blood. 
Very hardy. Fruit large, variegated red, 
beautiful; splendid for eating; unsur- 
passed for quality. 
\ 
hardy; early and annual heavy bearer. 
Fruit is medium large, pale waxen yel- 
low, beautiful; flesh white, tender, fine- 
grained, of splendid quality. It is a fa- 
vorite early dessert apple and is also 
suitable for cooking. Season, July 15 to 
August 10. 
DOLGO CRAB. This is one of Prof. Han- 
sen’s recent introductions from the South 
Dakota Experiment Station. It is prob- 
ably the most desirable crab introduced 
for canning whole, as sauce or pickles, 
and for jelly. Also fine for ornamental 
planting. It’s a beautiful tree, is an orna- 
ment to any back yard or in any family 
orchard, with an abundance of large 
green leaves. Fruit is a good red color 
and perfectly beautiful. It bears young 
and regularly. One or two of these trees 
should be on every farm. Very hardy 
into North Dakota and Montana. 
Marshall’s SUPER QUALITY APPLES 
YELLOW DELICIOUS. The Masters strain 
which average larger and smoother than 
ordinary Golden Delicious. It should be 
in every family orchard, where adapted, 
as it bears young and the fruit is splen- 
did quality. It is not related to the other 
Delicious, but is probably a seedling of 
the Grimes Golden which it resembles 
very closely. The fruit is very much the 
same as Grimes both in color and flavor. 
The season is about the same, being at 
its best in late fall and early winter, yet 
it can be kept much longer under special 
care. Is apparently as hardy as Grimes. 
Plant in eastern Nebraska, south halt of 
Iowa and south and east. 
JONATHAN. Super Red. Marshall’s im- 
proved strain averages larger and more 
Page 10 
completely colored. This variety is prob- 
ably better known to average consumers 
of dessert apples than any other variety. 
It is recognized on all markets of the 
country as one of the best among the 
few leaders of high quality eating apples. 
The fruit is medium size, red and beauti- 
ful. Bears young and abundantly. It is 
quite hardy and thrives in all of the Cen- 
tral West except in the drier portions of 
the northwest part. Season, November 
to February. 
SOLID RED DELICIOUS. Marshall’s Strain. 
This is a new Delicious that colors solid 
red all over, rather than in stripes like 
common Delicious. It colors earlier and 
can be picked while in prime condition, 
and thereby keeps better than Delicious 
which quite often is left on the tree 
longer than it should be in order to get 
the desired color. The tree and habits of 
bearing are the same as Delicious. Quite 
hardy except in the north and northwest 
parts of Iowa and Nebraska and beyond.
