All sorts of qualities, real and mythical have been attributed to the apple in -song and story, However extravagant the claims, the apple always lives up to its reputation. Each season brings its favorite varieties but .perhaps those that come out of storage in January, crisp and juicy, tangy or sweet seem the best of all. In January such varieties as McIntosh, J o n o t h a n, Rome Beauty, Northern Spy, Stayman, Grimes Golden and Yellow New­ town are good general-purpose apples. Delicious and Golden Russet are classed as ‘‘dessert” apples .and are best when eaten raw. Rhode Island Greening is a little too tart for the average taste when eaten" raw but is among the best foi' cooking. No one needs any instruction on eating raw apples but some­ times a new recipe, using apples, is welcomed by the homemaker. The home economists of the Consumer Section, Dominion De­ partment of Agriculture, have tested these and rate them all excellent.
