Nurseries (Horticulture) New Jersey Hammonton Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs; Trees Seedlings Catalogs. CLAPFS FAVORITE. jj This splendid new apple was introduced by us last year. It is an extra large deep red apple of splen- i; did keeping" quality, and unequalled by any other apple in flavor. The tree is a sturdy and vigorous i upright grower and the most prolific bearer we have. Indeed its extreme productiveness is something < remarkable. The original tree the past season bore on one branch, over three barrels of the finest apples j of the season, all large and fair without any wormy or knotty specimens. A verv valuable feature of this variety is its remarkable fredom from wormy and knotty- specimens. The codlin moth does not seem to have much effect on them, all ripening up smoth and fair without the need of The color is a beautiful red. At Christmas time this variety commands double the price of any other ayple in our mar- : j kets. You are well aware that an apple of large size, good color, smooth, and of excellent flavor that ripens i at Christmas time is the one that brings the money. That is what the Clapp's Favorite is, and we venture i the that if you are planting apples for profit you will get more clear money from a small orchard ; of Clapp's Favorite than from any other apple now grown. We bought the entire stock of grafts and the ; control of the variety three years ago from an energetic farmer in Burlington County, N. J., where it origin- i ated, paying him a large price for it. We felt sure it would prove a great success, and each year more than j confirms our high opinion of it. We l ave a splendid lot of trees ready to offer this spring, rnd will fill or- j ders in strict rotation, and those who order first will get the best. 50 els. each. S4perdo7,. S.'
