McIntosh 
McIntosh. An old accepted variety from Ontario, 
Canada, that produces a solid, bright red Apple, un- 
usually high in quality for eating. The fruit ripens 
in October and keeps until mid-winter. 
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. 
Minnesota No. 978. This introduction 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.

SUMMER APPLES 
Beacon. This early Apple was originated at the 
Minnesota Fruit Breeding Farm. The solid, bright 
red fruit ripens with, or a few days after Duchess. 
You will find it good for dessert and’ culinary use. 
It is one of the better keepers among the early varie- 
ties, keeping about 4 weeks in an ordinary basement. 
It has proven to be a_ heavy annual cropper in 
Bailey's trial orchards. The tree is hardy, of vigor- 
ous growing qualities and produces far to the north. 
Commercial orchardists like this Apple because of its 
high color, dependable bearing habits, early season, 
excellent quality and good handling properties. 
Duchess. An old and proven summer variety of 
good quality. It is especially favored for sauce and 
pies. The yellow fruit is overlaid with attractive red 
stripes. The tree is hardy and productive. It is al- 
most immune to Apple cedar rust disease. 
Yellow Transparent. Another old favorite early 
Apple. The yellow-green fruit has a tart flavor 
ideally suited to taste for eating and cooking. The 
tree is very hardy and productive. It is almost im- 
mune to Apple cedar rust disease. 
FALL APPLES 
Minjon. Here is another fine Apple from the Min- 
nesota Fruit Breeding Farm. The brilliant red fruit 
ripens soon after Wealthy. This Apple has the ap- 
pearance, quality and usefulness of the famous Jona- 
than, 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. 
Wealthy. You will recognize this as an Apple 
that has stood up well through the years. Wealthy 
has undoubtedly made more money for commercial 
growers 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.
