We offer for a short time, Hansen's new 
sensational Northwest hardy apricots. Just 
recently introduced by Prof. N. E. Hansen, 
of South Dakota State College, who has 
been working for many years to produce 
hardy apricots that would be good eating 
and large size and still would withstand the 
rigors of Dakota's cold and drouth. 
Those offered herewith are his best intro- 
ductions to date. We give a brief descrip- 
tion of each, though they are all good and 
it is rather hard to say just which one is 
best. Only time, experience, and tests can 
best prove that. 
Two very important points of interest 
stand out in regard to these new apricots. 
One is that they are perhaps one of the 
most drouth resistant of all trees, coming 
through the terrible drouths of 1933, 1934 
and 1935 with flying colors—full foliage and 
no apparent effect whatever from the dry, 
hot weather, and with a great crop of fruit. 
The second point is that they are hardy al- 
most anywhere in America, standing and 
bearing well in climates getting as low as 
50 to 60 below zero.
