Fruit Department. APPLES This is the most important fruit we have. It is profitable to the producer, more so than any other crop we know of. A good fresh apple is relished by all and at all times. By planting the right var- ieties, we can have fresh apples almost during the whole year. The Early Harvest ripens by the Fourth of July, while such varieties as the Janet, Winesap, Ben Davis and Northwestern Greening will keep fresh till June 1st. Apples should be planted about 25x25 feet; some plant 30x30 feet. In this case, it is advisable to plant peach or cherr3T trees between the rows. Plant trees about one inch deeper than they stood in the nursery, keep the ground free from weeds and well cultivated. We give below a list of the best varieties in cultivation. WINTER VARIETIES. Arkansas Black Fruit large, of fine flavor, and color very dark red, good cooking apple. Tree hardy, a strong grower and early bearer. Northern Spy Large, striped, very good and tree very hardy. Northwestern Greening Greenish yellow; rich; of good size, and a long keeper; very hardy. P, PLusset Medium size, dull russet; crisp and juicy. Not adapted for Nebraska. Rome Beauty Large, yellow, shaded red; popular for market. Tallman's Sweet Medium yellow and red; a very good sweet apple.
