OverviewExcerpt from Foreign News on Apples, Vol. 49: March 20, 1926 Of the barreled apples that have been tried, the Ben Davis, Winesaps, York Imperials, Baldwins and Kings are the most popular, in the order named. The Ben Davis is considered to be the best shipper and the best keeper of the barreled varieties shipped to the tropics, and its popularity undoubtedly has been founded on these qualities. Furthermore it can be delivered much more cheaply than the higher class eastern barreled fruit such as the Yellow Newtown and York Imperial. There is a decided preference for large sized Ben Davis. While boxed apples appear to be a luxury and supply the demand of the wealthier classes, the Ben Davis together with apples from Portugal, fill a certain demand for a cheap apple on the part of hotels and restaurants for use in cooking and as an ingredient of fruit salads. In boxed apples the most popular variety early in the American shipping season is the Gravenstein followed later by Jonathans, Winter Bananas, King Davids, Rome Beauty, Winesaps, Stayman Winesaps, Spitzenbergs, Yellow Newtowne, Arkansas Black, Delicious and Ganos.
