RED McINTOSH IN FRUIT 
N 
Red Delicious. High-quality dessert Apple. Large, 
brilliant dark red with fine-grained, tender, crisp, 
juicy flesh. Mild flavor and pleasing aroma. 
Dec. to March. 
a Early McIntosh. Fruit similar to McIntosh but 
ripens much earlier and, naturally, does not keep 
so long in storage. August. 
eee Red. Extra well-colored fruit with 
white, crisp, juicy flesh, subacid in flavor and 
possessing an appetizing aroma. The most popu- 
lar commercial variety. Must be planted with 
another variety for cross-pollination. October to 
January. 
\ Red Northern Spy. Best flavor of all! Waits 
longer than most varieties to come into bearing. 
Large, red-striped and mildly acid. Nov. to April 
or even May. 
4 Rhode Island Greening. An all-time favorite. 
Greenish yellow cooking Apple which keeps well 
and is not half bad for eating out of hand during 
winter and early spring. December to April. 
\( Wealthy. Best fall Apple for home gardens and a 
good pollinator. Brilliant red fruits of moderate 
size. Flesh of fine quality, white sometimes 
streaked with red. Relatively good keeper. Trees 
very hardy and healthy, beginning to bear in 
about four years. Sept. 15 to 20. 
\C Yellow Transparent. One of the best summer 
Apples. Pale yellow with acid flavor, making it 
excellent for cooking. Good to eat, too! Makes 
a comparatively small tree, which begins bearing 
at an early age. Early August. 
\ DWARF APPLES. 
a 
2 year, 11/16 caliper trees, $3.25 each. 
Dwarf Apple and Pear trees solve the problem of 
lack of space. A dwarf tree requires no more space 
in your yard than a large shrub. The fruit pro- 
duced is at least equal in size and quality to that 
borne on standard trees. Dwarf Apple trees should 
be spaced 15 feet apart to permit full development 
and fruit production. However, they are often set 
as close as 10 to 12 feet where space is restricted. 
Cortland. 
Red Delicious. 
Yellow Delicious. 
Red McIntosh. 
CRABAPPLES. 
2 year, 11/16 caliper, $2.00 each; 10 or more of the 
same variety $1.50 each. 
N Dolgo. For fruit and beauty. This dual-purpose 
variety is planted as often for its outstanding 
beauty as for the fruit it yields. The apples of 
good size are full of juice, which makes delicious, 
ruby-red jelly. Ripens in early fall. 
\ Hyslop. Tall-growing, old-fashioned variety pop- 
ular in New England. Its bright red fruits are 
esteemed for jelly and for pickling. The bloom 
is snow-white and completely covers the tree. 
The leading commercial variety.
