Here is the FINEST red apple in the whole wide world! — the 
shining, solid-ruby-red giant that glows on the counters of the 
highest-price luxury stores in America and floods the air with its 
wine-like perfume Here is the MASTER apple that puts the 
crowning glory on the nation’s most expensive baskets of fruit— 
the “dream” eating apple prized above all others in deluxe clubs, 
fine hotels and restaurants throughout the land. The apple which 
has NEVER been equalled for magnificent color, mammoth size, 
crackle-crisp flesh, deeply exciting sugar-’n-spice flavor as tan- 
talizing as the fragrance of an old-fashioned garden! 
And this is the apple, the matchless STARKING DELICIOUS, 
that YOU can grow right in your own back yard! 
For commercial growing, Starking Delicious is the world’s most 
popular and most profitable red apple. In the past 25 years this 
one variety has built some of the greatest fruit fortunes in America.

late keeping—becomes “money-in-the-bank” for you weeks sooner— 
keeps perfectly right through the Winter months. All ready to 
cash in on fancy Spring prices long after ordinary apples have dis- 
appeared from the market. The world’s finest red eating apple. 
Tops in all quality markets. America’s best red money-maker, pro- 
ducing big money crops everywhere—North, Central, South.

“Last year I harvested a big crop of 
Starking Delicious Apples. I was 
never so gratified in the quantity pro-

bushel right at the orchard. 
“When I first started to pick these 
Starking Delicious I thought I would 
have about a carload—500 bushels— 
but I picked four cars of them, total-

$1,020.18 Worth of Apples From $2.50 Stark Tree 
“Tn 1921 my father and mother sent you their picture standing beside a 
3-year-old Stark Golden Delicious apple tree bearing 114 bushels of big golden 
apples. 
“Here is a picture of me standing beside that same tree in 1948 from which 
my son has just picked over 19 bushels of big, juicy apples. We estimate 
that we have harvested about $1,020.18 worth of Apples from this one tree 
that cost my father only $2.50, I might add that we were very conservative 
in making this estimate.” A. Johnson-Mapes (Daughter Albert Johnson, Ore.)
