INTRODUCTION 



WE WISH to extend to our thousand 3 of customers and friends throughout the 

 country our greetings for the year 1927. We have passed another milestone 

 of time and it is with pleasure that we, through the increased patronage of 



our customers, can mark our past season's business as one of PROGRESS and 

 CONFIDENCE. 



The returns for our labors, in striving to grow and deliver better stock to our 

 customers, in better condition, giving better satisfaction to them, is indeed gratify- 

 ing to us, being expressed by our friends throughout the U. S., by their increased 

 patronage, making our business for the past fall nearly twice as much in volume as 

 that of any previous fall shipments. We feel that our appreciation of this cannot be 

 better expressed by us than in continuing our every effort to maintain the high 

 standards that we"have set in the past in Quality Stock, DIRECT TO THE PLANT- 

 ERS AT REASONABLE PRICES, lending the same personal interest in our custo- 

 mers, tending to make their success our success, our good fortune their good fortune. 

 Our Stock during the past season has been more widely distributed than ever be- 

 fore, being planted in every fruit growing section of the U. S., giving the same sat- 

 isfaction wherever it has gone, showing the marked results of over fifty years' ex- 

 perience in producing fruit trees to meet the demands of the expert orchardists of 

 today, grown according to the combined recommendations of the most scientific 

 horticulturists, using the best propagating stocks available either in the United 

 States or Europe, our scion wood being cut from the finest of bearing orchards by 

 a member of our firm who has your interest at heart at all times, breeding to a 

 variety type of fruit, striving to produce a superior tree each year. These are 

 factors that are vital to every fruit grower and planter of nurserv stock. W^e

 EQUALED FOR PRODUCING WELL MATURED STOCK THAT IS NOT FORCED 

 BY UNDUE FERTILIZATION, and our stock has proved its worthiness in all com- 

 petition by winning first prize in every instance that it has been put on competitive 

 exhibition. These are some of the reasons why the most exacting planters, the 

 largest orchardists of the East are using B ountif ul Ridge Nursery Grown Stock today
