RED VAN BUREN (Red Duchess) 
' Formerly thought to be a Duchess sport, but now 
known to be a ‘separate variety. It is better than 
Duchess in both color and quality. Will go wherever 
Duchess will go and do more than Duchess will. 
Recommended for zones up through V, and for trial 
‘in Zone VI. See prices below. 
WEALTHY—An Old Favorite 
Still one of the most popular fall varieties, reaching 
its peak of perfection in the LAND O’ LAKES area. 
It is of commercial importance in zones I and II, and 
of home orchard value in Zones III and IV. Will do 
well in Zone V but newer Minnesota varieties will do 
better. See prices below. 
HIBERNAL—For Cold Climates 
This is the Apple for trying locations where others 
will not do. It is a large, green Apple suitable for 
cooking and of first rate hardiness. It is often used 
in commercial sections to supply hardy trunks for 
tenderer varieties. Recommended for Zones V and 
VI. See prices below. 
From South Dakota comes the 
Anoka Apple, bred for the people 
of the Great Plains where sum- 
mers are hot and winters are cold. 
This Apple comes into bearing 
early, is semi-dwarf and bears 
well. It is not as long lived as 
tenderer varieties where tender 
sorts can be grown. 
The fruit lacks color, quality 
and keeping ability. It is not recommended where Beacon or Red Van Buren can be grown. 
Recommended for Zones V and VI only. See prices at left below. 
REDWELL 
Formerly Minnesota No. 638. Named in 1946. 
A new introduction of the Minnesota Fruit Breeding Farm 
that is hardy enough for all zones but matures too late for 
Zones V and VI. 
A brilliant all red Apple, called by many ‘Winter Wealthy” 
before it was named in 1946. Redwell matures in late October 
and keeps until in January in ordinary storage. It has much 
of the Wealthy flavor but unlike Wealthy, it bears regularly. 
Redwell comes nearest to being the perfect Apple of any of 
the Minnesota Apples yet introduced, because of ease of cul- 
ture, ability to hang to the tree and even distribution of fruit 
on the tree. Recommended for all but Zones V and VI. See 
prices at left. 
HARDY NORTHERN ROOT STOCKS 
All the Apple trees offered in this catalog are grafted or 
budded on to Hardy Northern Root Stocks which have been 
found best by test by northern nurserymen. 
Trees grafted or budded on to southern stocks may lose 
their roots in “test winters.” These trees seldom do. Hardy 
Northern Root Stocks have been developed to match the 
hardiness of the varie- 
ties on top. With these 
trees, the roots will go 
anywhere the tops are 
hardy. 
Plums, Cherries and 
Pears are all budded on 
to Hardy Northern Root 
Stocks that are suitable 
for them.

CRAB APPLES 
RED RIVER CRAB PIOTOSH 
From North Dakota comes this Crab—a 
cross between Dolgo and Delicious. Looks 
much like Dolgo in color but has the sweet 
flavor of Delicious. It is hardy in all zones. 
See prices above.

WHITNEY 
Whitney is an old favorite for eating and 
Pickling. It is so well known that it needs 
no further description. Best in zones up 
through III. See prices above. 
A new rival for Whitney is the Piotosh 
from Morden, Manitoba, Canada. Many 
believe it will replace Whitney before too 
many years. It is a good preserver, good 
for jelly and fair as dessert. 
It fruits heavier than Whitney, is of 
better quality, more attractive and hardier. 
This bright red, medium sized Crab is rec- 
ommended for all zones. See prices above.
