The color sport varieties are doing much to help the growers of the east and of the middle-west, because they entice the housewife to buy more apples. The climatic conditions of these regions are not as ideal from the standpoint of growing, good colored apples as the far west; but these new sports have helped the growers to overcome these climatic disadvantages. The color sport varieties will attain higher color with less sunshine and less cool nights than the older varieties, hence they are a great advantage to our eastern and midwestern growers.
