Fruit resembles the Duchess, except that the red is solid and ripens slightly 
later. It also differs in a few minor characters and unlike other red sports 
pollinates successfully its parent. Desirable for roadside and local markets. 
Redfield—an apple for the lawn and other ornamental plantings because of 
its large and very dark pink flowers. The fruit is medium in size, dark deep 
solid red in color, with deep red flesh. The foliage is dark with a reddish 
green tinge early in the season. This and Redford are two very desirable 
ornamentals. 
Redford—a sister of Redfield and similar in all characters of tree and fruit. 
The petals are deep pink but not as dark as those of Redfield. The fruit is 
medium in size, deep dark solid red, with deep red flesh. The foliage has a 
characteristic reddish green tinge early in the season. Lovers of handsome 
ornamental apples will plant this sort and Redfield. 
Redhook—so named because of its very handsome dark red color and heavy 
bloom, attractive color being an outstanding characteristic. Sometimes the 
flesh of the apples is decidedly red. The fruit averages about as large as 
McIntosh and ripens between Milton and McIntosh. It is sprightly in flavor 
but highly aromatic —an excellent dessert apple for the home and road- 
side market. 
Sweet Delicious—fruits are flatter than those of Delicious—large and attrac- 
tive in size, color, and shape, with the sweet aromatic flavor of Delicious. 
The variety is an apple for home use where it will be chiefly appreciated 
for dessert and baking. Sweet Delicious is our best winter sweet variety. 
Sweet McIntosh—sugegests McIntosh in season, appearance, flavor, and aroma, 
but is sweet instead of subacid. The variety is primarily adapted for home use 
—for baking and to eat out of hand. 
Webster—makes a good showing because of large size, trim shape, and 
handsome rather solid bright red color. It has excellent culinary possi- 
bilities and while not a high-quality eating apple, it is a valuable market 
sort for cooking late in the season when there is a scarcity of good cooking 
apples. The variety is a triploid so that ample provision should be made 
for cross-pollination. 
CRAB APPLES 
Dolgo—is a small, oblong, handsome red crab apple imported from Russia in 
1897 by Professor N. E. Hansen of the South Dakota Experiment Station. The 
fruit is full of juice, jellies easily, and makes a rich, ruby-red jelly of beautiful 
color and excellent flavor. The tree is hardy, vigorous, and productive; 
the season early September. 
Young America—produces abundantly, attractive red fruits of excellent size 
and quality. Jelly made from the fruit is a clear, beautiful red and splen- 
didly flavored. The tree is especially vigorous and hardy. The season is 
about the middle of September. Young America and Dolgo should be 
planted as ornamentals as well as for their fruit.
