Up until just after WWII they used to grow lots of different varieties of
apples on the Eperimental Farm here in Ottawa. I didn't live here then but
I worked in the Research Branch later and have seen harvest photos
complete with teams of horses - apples for cooking, apples for eating,
apples for shipping, apples for storing (in wooden barrels), apples for
cider, early apples, late apples, all kinds of apples.
