FALL APPLES — 
Minjon. Here is another fine Apple from the 
Minnesota Fruit Breeding Farm. The brilliant red 
fruit ripens soon after Wealthy. This Apple has the 
appearance, quality and usefulness of the famous 
Jonathan, but it ripens earlier and is much hardier. 
It is an abundant bearer and produces far to the 
north. It is good for eating and very good for pies, 
sauce and baking. Its season of use extends from 
mid-September to mid-December. 
Redwell. If you like Wealthy you will like Red- 
well. The important features of this late fall Apple 
are regular annual crops, bright, solid red color, 
even distribution of fruit and ability to hang to the 
tree. The Apples are good for dessert, pies and 
sauce. 


Wealthy. You will recognize this as an Apple that 
has stood up well through the years. Wealthy has un- 
doubtedly made more money for commercial grow- 
ers in the north-central states than any other variety. 
It is still Bailey’s leading Apple of the fall season. 
The beautiful red fruit is medium to large in size. 
The fruit ripens early in September and keeps to 
Christmas, and is excellent for canning, 
baking, dessert, pies and jelly. 
Minnesota No. 978. This introduc- 
tion from the Minnesota Fruit Breeding 
Farm is a very regular annual bearer, and 
the fruit clings until solid red. It ripens 
immediately after Wealthy but keeps a 
little longer. The dessert quality is good, 
and it is excellent for cooking. 
McIntosh. An old accepted variety 
from Ontario, Canada, that produces a 
solid, bright red Apple, unusually high in 
quality for eating. The fruit ripens in Oc- 
tober and keeps until mid-winter.
