BETTER FRUIT 



Page Three 



Scott Rainier 

 Apple 



TV/E are constantly on the lookout for 

 new meritorious fruits, always of 

 course with an eye to finding merits not 

 already possessed by varieties already being 

 propagnted, for their are too many varie- 

 ties now. 



We heard of Scott's RAINIER mmy 

 times and investigated it fully before con- 

 tracting with Mr. W. W. Scott of Nachcj 

 for the exclusive propagating rights which 

 we now hold. 



In our sincere judgment this Is the finest 

 dessert apple thus far developed. It has 

 all the mild qualities of the Delicious, 

 which commend it to the tasle of those 

 who cannot eat the more acid apples. But 

 in addition it has a more spicy flavor and 

 will keep firm in ordlnarv storage for 

 weeks without becoming mealy, and in cold 

 storage the RAINIER keeps perfectly for 

 a year. 



'^T^HE keeping qualities of the RAIN- 

 lER APPLE are unsurpassed by thnce 

 nf any other variety of the Pacific North- 

 west that has yet come to the attention of 

 the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Its 

 ability to retiin Its firmness, brightness and 

 quality with almost no decay or skin blem- 

 ish, places it above even the Arkansas 

 P.I.ick, Winesap, and Yellow Newtown. In 

 yi degrees Fahr. cold storage It keeps In 

 prime condition into May or later, and 

 instances are known where large numbers 

 of boxes have been held In excellent con- 

 dition Into September of the following 

 year."— Bulletin No. 587 of the United 

 tates Dep.irtment of Agriculture. (Page 

 2S.) 



"T^HE fruit is oblong and slightly In- 

 clined to conical. Flesh yellowish, 

 with practically no grain. Probably better 

 described as *buttcry.' Quality much re- 

 sembling the Delicious, but a much better 

 storage apple. Fruit picked during Oct- 

 ober, 1912, was placed on the table at 

 the banquet of the International Refriger- 

 ator Congress, Chicago, In September, 1913 

 In perfect condition. Scale is unknown; 

 decay practically so. Eating quality seems 

 to improve rather than deteriorate. The 

 tree Is a vigorous grower and is Inclined 

 to be spreading, therefore capable of bear- 

 ing heavy crop." — Lowther's "Encyclope- 

 dia of Practical Horticulture," Vol. 1, p. 

 231. 



"W/"E OFFER first-class RAINIER trees 

 for spring planting. Also other stan- 

 dard apples, peaches, pears, plums, prunes, 

 apricots, etc., small fruits, shade trees, 

 shrubbery and roses.

^^^ Q^- 



The Cost of Rotting Buildings 



Now Running into Millions 



ROTTING buildings or rusting 

 equipment are absolute waste, be- 

 cause a small investment in paint will 

 save them. Property that is not pro- 

 tected by paint must either be rebuilt 

 or repaired in a few years at a costly 

 figure. 



Check the costs. Compare the 

 prices of paint and lumber, or repair 

 parts. Can you afford to bear the 

 expense of rebuilding or repairing 

 your property, when to save it costs 

 so little? 



When you paint, make an addi- 

 tional saving by using the best paint. 

 It spreads easily — saves labor cost. 

 It covers more surface per gallon 

 than "cheap" paint. 



But more important, the best paint 

 serves many years longer than 

 "cheap" paint. 



The best paints are scientific in 

 formula and preparation. We've 

 been makii-g them for 7.'5 vears.

 zinc and pure colors — are combined
