Planting Instructions 
Plant Apples 30 by 30 feet apart. or plant 
35 by 35 feet apart. and plant filler trees be- 
tween each two apple trees. For filler trees we 
recommend Plums, Cherries, Dwarf Pears 
and Peach trees. These fillers will give you an 
early income from your orchard, and can be 
removed when the apples require all the space 
in later years. 
Plant Apple trees about 2 inches deeper than 
grown in the nursery. This puts the bud (or 
graft) just above the roots about l-inch below 
the surface of the soil, which is just right. Cut 
the ends of all roots smooth with a shar 
knife, making a slanting cut. This applies to all 
trees and shrubs, and stimulates the formation 
of new roots.

SUMMER APPLES 
Hardy everywhere: hardier than any other 
apples, and producing quite young and heavy. 
However, the fruit of early apples does not 
keep very long. So, in the home orchard, plant 
only two or three of them. But near a large 
city you will find a very profitable market for 
early apples.

Most popular of all early apples. Fair size, 
tender, juicy, not very sour; a good fresh apple 
or for cooking. 
‘6124—Whitney - Sweet Crab 
Green with red stripes. A handy size for the 
children, and a good sweet summer apple for 
home use. Ripens here in August. The home 
orchard is not complete without it. If you 
don't have a Whitney now, let's not waste an- 
other year, plant one this spring and have 
fruit—plenty of fruit—in just a few years.
