  No 
  other 
  fruit 
  can 
  take 
  the 
  place 
  of 
  the 
  apple 
  whether 
  it 
  is 
  planted 
  for 
  home 
  use 
  or 
  in 
  a 
  large 
  commercial 
  

   planting 
  for 
  profit. 
  No 
  other 
  fruit 
  will 
  thrive 
  over 
  so 
  wide 
  a 
  range 
  of 
  soil 
  and

  No 
  other

  -giving 
  merits 
  of 
  the 
  apple. 
  THE 
  APPLE 
  TODAY 
  IS 
  THE 
  KING 
  OF 
  ALE 
  FRUITS. 
  We 
  have 
  

   listed 
  here 
  some 
  varieties 
  that 
  are 
  adapted 
  to 
  most 
  any 
  section 
  of 
  the 
  WORLD, 
  and 
  you 
  can 
  select 
  the 
  varieties 
  

   which 
  you 
  know 
  will 
  succeed 
  for 
  you 
  wherever 
  you 
  wish 
  to 
  plant 
  them.

  FRUIT

  PROVEN 
  ONE 
  OF 
  THE 
  MOST 
  PROFITABLE

  NOW 
  IS 
  THE 
  OPPORTUNE 
  TIME 
  TO

  A 
  NEW

  IT

  Spring 
  1935 
  will 
  probably 
  be 
  your 
  last 
  opportunity 
  for 
  a

  many 
  years 
  to 
  

   buy 
  fruit 
  trees 
  at 
  our 
  prevailing 
  low

  It 
  would 
  seem 
  a 
  good 
  one 
  to 
  fill 
  in 
  your 
  older 
  orchards 
  and 
  make 
  

   whatever 
  new

  you 
  had 
  expected

  THE 
  FRUIT 
  TREE 
  SITUATION 
  

  

  Not 
  for 
  many 
  many 
  years 
  has 
  there 
  been 
  known 
  to 
  be 
  such 
  a 
  general 
  shortage 
  that 
  exists 
  today 
  on 
  most 
  all 
  

   classes 
  of 
  fruit 
  trees. 
  We 
  told 
  you 
  last 
  year 
  that 
  the 
  supply 
  of 
  apple 
  trees 
  would 
  naturally 
  be 
  shorter 
  this 
  year 
  

   because 
  of 
  the 
  general 
  let 
  down 
  in 
  propagation 
  and 
  the 
  failure 
  of 
  seed 
  for 
  the 
  seedling 
  growers 
  but 
  we 
  could 
  not 
  

   foresee 
  the 
  low 
  temperatures 
  of 
  last 
  winter 
  and 
  the 
  disasterous 
  drought 
  condition 
  that 
  has 
  existed 
  in 
  many 
  of 
  the 
  

   principal 
  fruit 
  tree 
  producing 
  sections 
  during 
  the 
  past 
  summer 
  which 
  has 
  killed 
  and 
  damaged 
  beyond 
  recovery 
  

   millions 
  of 
  trees 
  for 
  the 
  nurserymen. 
  These 
  conditions 
  have 
  naturally 
  taken 
  their 
  toll 
  from 
  the 
  growers 
  and 
  will 
  

   call 
  for 
  large 
  replacements, 
  which 
  if 
  made, 
  will 
  absorb 
  the 
  available 
  supply 
  long 
  before 
  the 
  spring 
  shipping 
  sea- 
  

   son 
  is 
  over. 
  We 
  are 
  fortunate 
  in 
  having 
  about 
  135,000 
  apple 
  trees 
  this 
  year, 
  most 
  of 
  which 
  are 
  one 
  year 
  stock 
  

   and 
  are 
  as 
  fine 
  as 
  ever 
  grew., 
  We 
  were 
  also 
  fortunate 
  to 
  have 
  no 
  winter 
  injury 
  to 
  our 
  stock 
  and 
  in 
  having 
  a 
  nor- 
  

   mal 
  growing 
  season 
  during 
  the 
  past 
  summer 
  so 
  if 
  we 
  are 
  able 
  to 
  supply 
  what 
  you 
  want 
  it 
  should 
  be 
  of 
  excellent 
  

   quality, 
  however 
  our 
  sales 
  during 
  the 
  fall 
  shipping 
  season 
  of 
  1934 
  were 
  the 
  largest 
  we 
  have 
  ever 
  experienced 
  dur- 
  

   ing 
  a 
  fall 
  shipping 
  season 
  and 
  in 
  spite 
  of 
  our 
  large 
  supply 
  we 
  are 
  running 
  short 
  on 
  some 
  grades 
  in 
  some 
  varie- 
  

   ties. 
  Taking 
  this 
  into 
  consideration 
  it 
  would 
  be 
  well 
  for 
  anyone 
  considering 
  planting 
  this 
  year 
  to 
  buy 
  their 
  stock 
  

   at 
  the 
  earliest 
  possible 
  time. 
  You 
  will 
  find 
  our 
  prices 
  comparatively 
  low. 
  

  

  While 
  the 
  situation 
  is 
  not 
  quite 
  so 
  acute 
  on 
  peach 
  trees 
  the 
  supply 
  is 
  far 
  below 
  normal, 
  and 
  the 
  demand 
  for 
  

   Bountiful 
  Ridge 
  Nursery 
  grown 
  peach 
  trees 
  continues 
  to 
  increase. 
  We 
  had 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  largest 
  and 
  best 
  lots 
  of 
  

   peach 
  trees 
  we 
  knew 
  of 
  in 
  the 
  Eastern 
  U. 
  S. 
  this 
  year 
  but 
  our 
  sales 
  have 
  also 
  been 
  the 
  heaviest 
  ever 
  experienced, 
  

   having 
  dug 
  and 
  shipped 
  more 
  than 
  125,000 
  peach 
  trees 
  during 
  the 
  Fall 
  shipping 
  season, 
  these 
  trees 
  going 
  to 
  

   every 
  part 
  of 
  the 
  U. 
  S. 
  and 
  Canada. 
  Our 
  well 
  matured, 
  properly 
  grown 
  trees, 
  stood 
  the 
  low 
  temperatures 
  of 
  last 
  

   winter 
  in 
  N. 
  Y. 
  and 
  other 
  sections 
  of 
  New 
  England 
  when 
  older 
  trees 
  were 
  being 
  damaged 
  and 
  killed. 
  If 
  the 
  pre- 
  

   sent 
  demand 
  continues 
  we 
  know 
  we 
  shall 
  be 
  sold 
  out 
  on 
  many 
  grades 
  and 
  varieties 
  before 
  March 
  1st 
  and 
  again 
  we 
  

   say, 
  it 
  would 
  be 
  well 
  for 
  you 
  to 
  order 
  whatever 
  you 
  wish 
  to 
  plant 
  this 
  spring 
  at 
  the 
  earliest 
  possible 
  time 
  to 
  

   avoid 
  disappointment. 
  

  

  The 
  same 
  shortage 
  exists 
  in 
  Plum, 
  Pear, 
  Quince 
  and 
  all 
  classes 
  of 
  dwarf 
  stock. 
  The 
  supply 
  of 
  Sweet 
  Cherry 
  

   is 
  mostly 
  one 
  year 
  and 
  cut 
  back 
  stock 
  which 
  was 
  damaged 
  last 
  winter 
  and 
  cut 
  back 
  and 
  let 
  grow 
  a 
  new 
  top 
  this 
  

   year. 
  This 
  gives 
  an 
  additional 
  offset 
  in 
  the 
  trunk 
  of 
  the 
  tree 
  but 
  otherwise 
  the 
  tree 
  is 
  all 
  right, 
  having 
  a 
  very 
  

   strong 
  root 
  system. 
  There 
  should 
  be 
  enough 
  sour 
  cherry 
  to 
  supply 
  the 
  demand 
  but 
  the 
  planters 
  will 
  not 
  have 
  

   the 
  bargains 
  offered 
  them 
  this 
  year 
  that 
  they 
  have 
  had 
  during 
  trie 
  last 
  three 
  years. 
  There 
  is 
  considerable 
  older 
  

   trees 
  of 
  sour 
  cherry 
  to 
  be 
  offered 
  this 
  year 
  but 
  clean 
  thrifty 
  stock 
  is 
  not 
  plentiful 
  and 
  it 
  would 
  be 
  well 
  to 
  con- 
  

   sider 
  placing 
  your 
  order 
  early 
  on 
  these 
  items. 
  

  

  The 
  above 
  is 
  a 
  frank 
  discussion 
  of 
  the 
  fruit 
  tree 
  situation 
  among 
  the 
  Nurserymen. 
  We 
  have 
  always 
  gone 
  to 
  

   our 
  patrons 
  with 
  the 
  facts 
  as 
  they 
  exist 
  feeling 
  that 
  it 
  created 
  a 
  better 
  understanding. 
  We 
  cannot 
  meet 
  you 
  all 
  

   personally 
  and 
  talk 
  about 
  these 
  things 
  as 
  we 
  would 
  like 
  to 
  do 
  but 
  we 
  want 
  you 
  to 
  feel 
  that 
  we 
  are 
  really 
  inter- 
  

   ested 
  in 
  your 
  welfare 
  as 
  well 
  as 
  our 
  own.
