Just How Much 

 Pays to Know "How to , 

 Growand Market Fruit' 



What would it mean to you. in 

 dollars and cents, to get thirty or forty 

 cents more a bushel for your fruit than 

 you have been getting? 



Wouldn't you make a good round sum of money 

 off the fact if you knew how to make your young fruit trees 

 produce paying crops one to four years earlier than they 

 usually do? 



To tell you and show you about these things, and every- 

 thing else connected with producing heavy crops of perfect 

 fruit every year and packing it to sell for high prices, we 

 wrote fifty thousand words last summer, from our orchard- 

 ing experience, made a couple of hundred special pictures, 

 and built this material into a 150-page book which is called 



"How to Grow and Market Fruit" 



You will find it to be a practical, meaty, reliable, up-to- 

 date, and usable manual on fruit-growing, and you mav 

 have a copy for fifty cents, or get it free by sending us an 

 order for trees amounting to $5 or more. If you buy the 

 book now, we will rebate the fifty cents any time you send 

 the order. Why not order a copy during the next five 

 minutes?

Northern Grown 

 English Walnuts 



Now Thrive Wherever Peaches May Be Grown 



You can now prow wonderful English Walnuts in your door-yard or orchard, just as you've 

 always grown the peach and other fruit trees. In Northern and Eastern States, wherever 

 peaches will grow, these hardy English Walnuts will live and yield bountifully. 



Near Lockport, N. Y., a large English Walnut orchard now produces immense crops of 

 delicious nuts each year. 



Our acclimated English Walnuts, grafted on Native Black Walnut, are hardier than 

 peach, and have withstood without injury, winter temperature that killed nearby peach trees. 



English Walnut — For Ornament or 

 Profit — A Tree Unmatched 



Thus, science has given the northern orchardist a new crop, far more profitable, and 

 easier to harvest and market than any ordinary fruit crop. Demand for nuts exceeds sup- 

 ply and prices yield growers large profits. California's English Walnut crop has a greater actual 

 money value than her famed orange crop. 



For the lawn, the acclimated English Walnut is superb, with its smooth, light gray bark, 

 luxuriant dark green foliage, lofty, symmetrical growth. 



Whether you plant for ornament or profit, investigate acclimated English Walnuts. Catalog and infor- 

 mation mailed free on request.
