Growing highly flavored apples requires a combination of the proper kind of soil coupled with hard and persistent labor throughout the entire year. Our Staymen Winesap Apples were grown on stony, flinty soil. Minute attention was paid to the trees from the time they were planted. At frequent intervals the trees were sprayed. Small limbs were removed from the tree to admit sun light and air. Immediately upon removal from the trees the . apples were placed in storage at 34 degrees. This temperature arrests the ripening processes, but does not injure the fruit. Staymen Winesap Apples are sold by first class grocers. United Ice & Coal Co. Foratcr A Condon St*.
