How Apple Growing Can be Made
Profitable.
a large number of Centre county
farmers have old orchards that, by
using a little care, could be made
profitable; also a number of farmers
are planning new orchards, according
to R. C. Blaney, county extension as-
sociation representative.
Choosing the right varieties is an
important question to be considered,
and especially so to those planning to
go into the business. Fruit growing,
unlike other forms of agriculture, is a
permanent industry. If one raises
hay and cabbage, and they are not
paying, he can change his crop to corn
or wheat in a year ’s time, but the fruit | 17th.
tree is planted for a life-time, and
mistakes made in the beginning may
mean the difference between success
and failure 15 to 20 years later,
states R. S. Snyder, fruit extension
specialist at The Pennsylvania State
College.
“Hundreds of varieties of pome and
drupe fruits have been described in
fruit publications,” he says. “How-
ever, only a few are of commercial
importance today. New and better
kinds may be developed, but the grow-
er should limit the number of varie-
ties he uses, and allow others to ex-
periment with new and doubtful ones.’
In every region four to six well
known varieties are most profitable,
and it is best to select three or four
from this list. New and doubtful va-
rieties should be planted in limited
quantities. The problem today is to
select a suitable variety that will cov-
er a very wide range of conditions,
namely: Color, market, size, flavor,
keeping and shipping, Snyder points
out. Some soils will produce a better
type of Baldwin apples than others,
and the same is true of other varie-
ties. Every fruit grower should thor-
oughly analyze all his conditions and
then select his varieties. The follow-
ing apples recommended by the Penn-
sylvania State Horticultural Associa-
tion will answer the question for
Pennsylvania growers.
There are five leading varieties,
named in order of importance, for
wholesale or car-lot plantings in each
region. They are: Stayman, York,
Grimes, Jonathan and Rome in the
southern region (Adams and adjoin-
ing counties); Styman, Smokehouse,
Grimes, Rome and Delicious in the
southeastern region (east of York
city and south of North Mountain);
Baldwin, Northern Spy, Stayman,
Rome and McIntosh in the northwest-
ern region (east of Sunbury and
Troy); Baldwin, Northern Spy, Rome
and Stayman and Stark in the west-
ern region (west of Greensburg, Kit-
tanning and Corry); and Stayman,
York, Rome, Delicious and Jonathan
in the central region (for northern
half, use varieties of the northwestern
region).
Leading varieties recommended by
Snyder for local market planting, ar-
ranged in order of season of market-
ing are: Southern region, Summer
Rambo, Grimes, Jonathan, Delicious,
Rome and Stayman; southeastern re-
gions, Smokehouse, Grimes, Jonathan,
Delicious, Rome and Stayman; north-
eastern ' region, - Baldwin, Northern
Spy: Rome: and Stayman; western re-
gion, Wealthy, ' Baldwin, Rome and
Stayman; and central region, Jona-
than, Delicious, Northern Spy, Rome
and Stayman.
Snyder also lists for local market
planting a group of secondary varie-
ties. For the southern region in the
order of marketing they are: Yel-
low Transparent, Wealthy and Smoke-
house; southeastern region, Yellow
Transparent, Williams, Summer Ram-
bo, Wealthy and Stark; northwestern,
Wealthy, Delicious, Rhode Island
Greening and Stark; western region,
Jonathan, Delicious, Wagener and
Northern Spy; and central region,
Baldwin.
Varieties of limited value for local
market planting are: Southern re-
gion, McIntosh, York and Stark;
southeastern region, Maiden Blush,
Wagener; northeastern region, Yellow
Transparent, Oldenberg (duchess) and
Wagener; western region, Yellow
Transparent, Oldenberg, Maiden Blush
and Stark; and central region, Yellow
Transparent, Oldenberg, Wealthy,
Wagner, York and Stark.
Additional varieties worthy of a
place in the home planting because of
their quality are: Early Harvest,
Fanny, Gravenstein, Jeffries, Fall Pip-
pin, Mother, Twenty Ounce, Cortland,
Cox, Orange Salome, Tompkins King,
King David, Espus, Tolman Sweet,
Red Canada, Golden Russett and Yel:
low Newton.

This Chart Shows Why your
Electric Light Bills are Higher
in Some Months than in Others
In winter you depend upon artificial lighting nearly three times
as many hours in each 24 as in summer.
In June the average use of electric light, in a residence, is 2
hours and 35 minutes a day.
In December the average use of electric light, in a residence, is
6 hours and 50 minutes a day.
This is perfectly natural. As the summer days lengthen, the
“electric light hours” become shorter and as the winter days become
shorter the “electric light hours” grow longr.
There are other reasons, too, why your bills in the fall and win-
ter are larger than in the spring and summer, good reasons that show
it is simply the result of the season’s changes; your more extensive
use of electric light, and not the fault of the electric light company
at all. £9
When summer is over, vacations are over. Everybody is home
again; more rooms are occupied; more light is needed.
Long evenings—late bed-times. The outside cold keeps us in-
doors. The soft, cozy glow of electric light makes reading a pleasure.
The newspapers, magazines, study, or a good book, music, and games
pass the evening quickly. It is bed time before one knows it.
More entertaining is done—parties at home for the grown-ups
and little folks. Sometimes the house fairly radiates with the good
cheer of electric light.
Think this over carefully and you will
see why your winter electric light bills
can reasonably triple those of Summer.
Electricity Furnishes the Best, Possible
Service at. the Least. Possible Cost.
