Our Trees Are Triple Inspected For Your Protection
IMP. ALL RED JONATHAN (lOa) This is a special
bud-selected strain of the famous Jonathan apple. We
have tested it in every section of the country, in trial
plots and commercial orchards, for more than twenty
years and have found it superior in most all cases.
Highly colored Jonathan apples bring the fancy prices.
Use this fine, proven red strain of Jonathan for replant-
ing and new planting work. We are sure it will satisfy
jour needs.
GRIMES GOLDEN (lOb) An apple of the highest
quality. It is one of the fancy dessert apples and ranks
with Delicious and Jonathan on the market. Medium to
large, bright yellow; flesh fine grained, juicy, with a very
pleasing spicy flavor. The tree is hardy, grows upright
and is quite disease resistant. Highly recommended and
dely planted to pollinate self-sterile varieties.
/
FRANKLIN (lOc) The flesh is faintly yellow, fine
grained. It is mild, moderately juicy, not quite as sweet
as Delicious but with more character than Mcintosh.
Franklin excels both parents in appearance, having a
brilliant red over-cover, resembling Delicious, with a
golden yellow under-color with very distinct bloom.
Fruits are medium to good size, oblong in shape. Frank-
lin is notable for fresh dessert quality which is best from
late October to early January. Blooms about with De-
licious, Jonathan, Rome, ripening a week earlier than
Delicious and a little later than Jonathan. It is a heavy
Mlnual bearer when properly pollinated.
IDARED (lOd) A cross between Wagner and Jonathan.
Its season is with or a little later than Jonathan. Fruits
are medium to large. Stems medium long, slender; cavity
broad, deep ; calyx small, basin shallow. Strikingly beau-
tiful bright red color. Skin smooth, medium thick, waxen ;
dots sparse, inconspicuous; rich yellow under-color.
Fruits hold form as well as Rome when baking. Creamy
white, smooth-textured flesh. Tree form resembles
Jonathan, more upright, spreading, seems rather resistant
o blight. A regular bearer.
JONADEL (lOe) This variety is the result of a cross
of Jonathan and Delicious. The fruit is larger than Jona-
than, milder than Jonathan but more acid than De-
licious. Color is equal to Jonathan. Dessert qualities are
excellent. Jonadel ripens with Jonathan, keeps well in
storage until March or April with no evidence of
Jonathan spot or internal browning. Fruit tends to drop
unless treated with NAA. The tree is less susceptible to
fif^e blight than Jonathan.
JONAGRAM (lOf) A cross of Ingram x Jonathan.
The fruit is of medium size, roundish, with thick, tough
skin that is pale yellow overlaid with red. The flesh is
whiter than Jonathan, finely grained, juicy, crisp, tender.
The apples keep well in storage. Jonagram matures with
Jonathan but blooms late, about 12 days after Jonathan
and Delicious, and six days after Golden Delicious and
Rome Beauty.

BOUNTIFUL IMPROVED Vt^lNESAP
SPARTAN (lOg) A very attractive Mcintosh type
ripening about a week later than Mcintosh. Flesh is
firm and dessert quality is good. Storage life is weeks
longer than Mcintosh. We recommend it for trial where
a Mcintosh type that can be picked later and stored
nger is desired.
TWENTY OUNCE (II) Fruit exceptionally large,
juicy and crisp, sub-acid; color green, with slight blush
red stripe. Tree thrifty and very productive, gener-
ly recognized as our best summer baking apple.
OPALESCENT (lla) Very large, brilliant dark red
all over. Tree bears when young; very prolific. Average
quality. Its size and beauty recommend it for planting
^in central and northern areas.
PACIFIC GOLD (lib) Pacific Gold originated as a
chance seedling in southwest Oregon and was introduced
in the late 40's by J. E. Miller of California. The tree
is moderate in size, with well-spaced, strong, wide-
angled limbs. It bears when young and yields heavy
crops annually. The fruit of Pacific Gold is large, with
crisp, tender flesh, quite sweet, and of fine dessert
quality. The skin is yellow, looking much like Yellow
Delicious and Mutsu. The season is late fall or early
winter. Pacific Gold keeps well in storage and should
belied in areas where russetting is a problem with
ellow Delicious.
z
SPIGOLD (lie) A very high quality, dual-purpose
apple from a cross of Red Spy x Golden Delicious
Matures about with Golden Delicious. Spigold has ex-
ceptional quality and should be an excellent home-
'arden varietv.
YELLOW DELICIOUS ( 1 2 ) This apple is famous for
its unique quality, embracing a combination of flavors
which is hard to equal. This, combined with the fine,
firm-textured flesh of the apple and the beautiful golden
yellow skin, at once attracts the eye of the consuming
public. The tree, while not a large growing type, is
thrifty and extremely productive, coming into fruiting
/and giving an abundant crop while very young.
MACOUN (12a) Very highly colored, having no
stripe. Same quality as Mcintosh, same textured fruit,
hangs to the tree better than Mcintosh and ripens one
to two weeks after Cortland. Tree about equal to
Mcintosh, a regular bearer, and strongly recommended
to lengthen the Mcintosh season.
