One of the promising seedling apples originated at the Iowa Experiment Station Is now offered to the nurserymen of the state under the label Iowa 403. It is hoped that the nurserymen will assist In making a thorough test of the variety, so that as soon as possible Its value for planting In this region may be determined. The distribution at this time will consist solely of clons. Since the nurserymen, as a class, are prepared to give the clons more skillful attention than other people, this distribution Is to be offered to all Iowa nurserymen whose names appear on the 1914 list of the State Inspector. Later distribution will be made to others who may be Interested In testing this apple.
