Hardy tfples 
We feel that we know apples from 
every standpoint. Not only have we had 
extensive experience in the propagating 
and growing of the young trees, but we 
have also had many years of experience 
in commercial apple orchard production 
and marketing. We can give you inval- 
uable assistance in the selection of your 
varieties, whether your needs are one or 
one hundred. 
Of the many varieties grown in Minne- 
sota and adjacent territory we have nar- 
rowed our list to those we feel are the 
outstanding ones for this territory. May 
we have the pleasure of assisting you in 
your selection?

An Early All-Red Eating Apple That 
Tops the Early Fall Market 
The leader among all early fall varie- 
ties for the middle west. Trees—Vigor- 
ous, productive, hardy. Season — Late 
Duchess. Keeps 1 month after picking, 
without cold storage. Fruit—Highly col- 
ored, all red. Better eating quality than 
Duchess and an excellent cooking apple. 
‘Red Duchess 
Best of the Older Early Apples 
A bud sport of the old duchess. It pos- 
sesses all of the good qualities of the 
older variety and in addition that all im- 
portant, price commanding quality of 
high red color. It comes when red apples 
are scarce—and always sells at top mar- 
ket prices. We know of no better real 
early “summer” apple for general com- 
mercial or home growing in this section 
of the country. 
\\ Fireside 
The New “Northern Delicious” 
We consider FIRESIDE to be the one 
Highest Quality Apple for Minnesota. 
The tree is vigorous, highly productive, 
and a regular annual producer of large 
crops. The fruit is large, colored a beau- 
tiful red, clings well to the tree, and 
keeps all winter. Its flavor is rich, sub- 
acid, almost sweet, with a crisp, firm 
juicy flesh. 
\ Minjon 
The “Minnesota Jonathan” 
The reddest, red apple of the Wealthy 
season. It clings to the tree until picked. 
It has an excellent flavor and quality. 
As the name implies it is so closely sim- 
ilar to the Jonathan that it is commonly 
called the “Minnesota Jonathan,” and its 
name, “Minjon” is so derived. 
~ Minnesota No. 790 
The Northwest's Best Baking Apple 
A big, new apple with a rich, solid red 
color. Has been proven to be the best 
baking apple we can grow in Minnesota. 
An excellent quality, crisp, attractive 
dessert apple that is an excellent winter 
keeper. 
‘Northwest Greening 
The One Best Winter Greening 
The best and longest keeping of the 
greenings. A splendidly formed, bright 
green fruit. Should be in every orchard 
for, even in ordinary storage, they keep 
well all winter and in a good vegetable 
cellar sometimes on into the summer. 
Unexcelled for pies and baking.

The Most Widely Planted Hardy, Red, 
Winter Apple 
Because it was one of the earlier Min- 
nesota introductions, and because it has 
proven itself so valuable it is now one of 
our most extensively planted varieties. 
Very hardy ... extremely productive 
... bears, and heavily, at a very young
