I have been carrying on a search during the past 25 years for a more suitable apple variety that ripens in late July or the first part of August in southern Indiana. In the course of this search I have tested at least 75 varieties from different parts of the country. The Fenton apple, which I discovered on the farm of Mr. H. D. Fenton, near Michigan City, Indiana, is the best that I've found. My grafts of this variety at the Bedford Farm of Purdue University should bear a few fruits this year and give us a better idea of its ripening season and color in southern Indiana.
