Calirornla Privet 



Grown as a Specialty 



You go to a specialist in other lines of busi- 

 ness because you know you will get the best 

 service. This applies to growers of nursery 

 stock as well. Give me a trial and be convinced. 



I have a large block to move this Fall, and 

 will quote you prices that will enable you to 

 get California Privet business. The stock will 

 be as fine as can be grown. Send your list at 

 once.

weather is bad. The spring planting sea- 

 son comes and conditions are just the 

 same. The surer a community is that the 

 local nurseryman is honest and has good 

 stock, the more surely works the ma- 

 chinery of delay. I have been up 

 against the proposition, kept tab, and 

 know how it goes. Out of twenty men 

 who would look me squarely in the eye 

 and say, "Jim, you're a bully good 

 fellow; I'm coming to your nursery to 

 get 100 trees," I would make one sale. 



The real work of selling nursery 

 stock, on final analysis, is found to de- 

 pend on the personal influence of the 

 traveling salesman. Did you ever have 

 one of those smiling "knights of the 

 grip" come into the field where you 

 were plowing? He did not put on any 

 airs. He only quietly told you his name 

 was Jones, and then added in a pe- 

 culiarly friendly tone, "John Jones." 

 And the way he said John made you 

 feel that you were not much interested 

 in wl)ether his name was Jones or Smith 

 — John was the name by which he 

 should be known to you. It was not 

 necessary for John to make inquiry 

 about your wife and chDdren and your 

 growing crops. There was that pe- 

 culiar feeling of good fellowship in his 

 voice and manner which made you know 

 that he was interested in you and 

 yours. In his cheerful presence your 

 griefs were soon forgotten and your 

 blues stole softly away. Then do you 

 remember how you and John sat down 

 on the plow handles and looked at the 

 pictures in his book! He did not pre- 

 sume to advise or argue with you, but 

 somehow his interested and suggestive 

 way of asking about your plans started 

 you to thinking and planning, and as 

 your plans developed in your own mind, 

 you were glad to have your friend John 

 by your side to help you work out the de- 

 tails and get things right. Trade with 

 John? Of course you do. He is the 

 sort of a man you like to do business 

 with. 



And, gentlemen, in spite of the abuses 

 of the system, three-fourths of the or-
