Hiive You
Planted Stark Delicious?
If not make it the first and biggest item on your
net order you'll never regret it. Delicious is the
most wonderful apple known to horticulture for
quality, kccpingqunlitlcs and selling value. This year
at the sale of the Wenatchec Valley l'ruit Growers'
Ass'n (Washington) Delicious brought $3.00 per
box f. o. b. there (the present market value is$ 4.00),
while Splttsnburg brought only $2.50, Winesap
$2.25, Jonathan $I.W, lilack lien $1.75, (now $2.00
selling with Jonathan), llaldwin $1 . 15, Ben Davis
$1.40, Gano$1.50, etc.
I.uthar llurbanlt. Wizard of Horticulture, isyi: "De
licious it a gem, the finest apple in all ttie world. Ills
the bent ill qtiulily of liny tipple I huv to fur tented"
and Luther Iturhiink knows.
Delicious Bring $2.000 Per Acre
100 leven yvur old Stark Dt-linnus apple trees in the
li.ni. v Orchmd, Chelan Co., Washington, earned
$2,000 for their owner Inst year and when prices were
low or in SVtrtgl of $20 per tree lor one season's crop.
Delicious is today making more profits big
profits, for the long-headed, fnr-sighled orchnrdists
who have planted it thuu uuy other variety. Write
for "The Apple St-trk Delicious" a booklet giving
its full history and the opinions of the world's
greatest horticulturists and successful orchardists.
It will convince you. Last year we sold 1 ,250, 000
trees of Delicious alone ami could have sold another
i million had wc had them. Planters now-a-dayi
do not buy a variety at that rate unless there's a rea
son. And there is one send lor the booklet.
Stark King David Apple
You should plunt it along with Delicious plant
it largely you'll never regret it. It's a money mak
er, and a big one. It has highest quality, is a long
keeper, very hardy, and has beautiful color. Sells
at highest prices. Muny planters .hink it better
than Delicious.
"In my opinion King David will surpass Delicious as
a commercial apple. It is fine as silk." Rev. T. H.
Alkimion, Knliat, Washington.
Was In Mr. Olds' orchard Intt week. His King
David 3-yr. old trees will hear iiuite a lot of trnit this
year. 1 consider them far ahead of Jonathan - the fruit
Is larger, has buttsf color and flavor and iu a better
keeper D. J. llayden, Chslaa Co., Washington.
King David stood 25 degrees below jero last winter
without injury while Ben Davis suffered severely.
R. Q, McDougall, Chelan Co., Washington.
King David, a very rich red, mailt: a most beautiful
apple. Hangs on the tree well, equal to Boa Davis
and just as productive; quality is equal to Spitaanburgj
picked three boxes fro n one scion gruficn on Ren
Davis. It lathe lincst apele you have Kir this part of
the country; the most bttSUltlul apple grown; enn't help
but sell anywhere, and ahead of all others. Have
beard nothing but King David all this season. Have
had to date filty-two p.irti g at my place to see these
apples. F. Dando, Chelan Co., Washington.
Include King David in your next order. You'll
never regret it and will want more when you see its
magnificent fruit.
Stark Ettrfy Klhcrta Peach
One of the good things you can not afford to
overlook. It is wim ing golden opinions from
experienced fruit men the country over. Better
quality than Elberta and ripens ten days to two
weeks curlier, reaching the markets when all other
good peaches ire scarce und thus commanding high
prices. A gicnt shipping peach, surpassing Elberta,
I bi tievr Barrf BibeKa is one o( the best varieties
Inlroducid sinte the hist filberts came. In Karly
Bbatts oaa ass attof the food Qualities of Ell erra, and
the additional feature of early ripening. When ibis Is
taken into consideration, and when it is planted along
with the original Elberta, tinieh of the strain and con
gestion which comr'; wttn pc ach barysst will hi irostlf
reduced. The shipping season wiil be lerutl. tried.
K. H. Favor, Ass t Horticulturist, Davis Co., Utah.
Having tested its shipping and keeping uaalitirs
thoroughly, without doabj it is the most valuable ad
dition to the coinni'.-.-f iaf peach list introduced In recent
years; an excellent shipper nnd as n keeper it has no
rival. L. Ifttrm, Itou. Inspector, Davis Co., Utah.
J. H, Mala iThe I'cach King) wrote me thai lie took
some Early Elberta bonis I rum Georgia and that they
kept nearly twice as long ns Klhcrta.- Dr. Sumner
tjleason I Onsinator of btatk Euily Elberta) Davis
Co., Utah.
Early Elberta is all right. Two trees bore fine, yel
low, spicy fruit and although not n full cop. It was more
than was produced by 50 Elberta tree.1 in the same
orrhard. Ripened with Carman E H. Richl, (III.
Experiment Station) Pres. Alton I irtlcukursl Society.
Madison da,, III.
Stark Early Elberta is worthy of your utmost
confidence -plant it largely a id rciip the harvest ol
profits which will surely follow, l'ia true Stark
Early Elberta can be bad only of us. We
purchased the exclusive pronflating right from the
originator, Dr. Sumner Qleason.
Other Western Varieties
The success of an orchard is dependant upon the
judgment displayed in the selection of varieties
the profit paying kind. And profit In fruit growing
means quality. Quality and color aie the two
things that the great fruit consuming public pay
their money for. That's certain you can't deny it.
Increase your orchard profits -do it by planting
the splendid tested special sorts of Stark Tines. Begin
now don't wait untii next season. Plant now
and be thnt much nearer a big profit paying crop
than you would be by waiting ft months or a year.
