WHY WASTE TIME GROWING ORDINARY CROPS 
PRU PAYS S100 to $500 per Acre 
Little Orchards Make More Money Than Big 
Mr. Farmer, if you are not mak- 
ing money something is wrong. 
Other farmers are making money— 
BIG MONEY—and you can do 
likewise if you will produce some- 
thing the people want and are 
willing to pay for. What is the 
use of wearing out yourself and 
your land on crops that pay from 
$10.00 to LESS THAN NOTHING 
per acre? Grow a few acres of 
fruit and leave the balance of your 
land idle. 
Fruit will give you a bigger cash 
profit than any other crop you 
can grow. Youll make more 
actual money from one acre of 
fruit than you will from 20 to 40 
acres of ordinary farm _ crops. 
Show us a prosperous farmer and 
we will show you a fruit farmer. 
The reason for this is plain and 
simple—there is a big surplus of 
ordinary farm crops such as 
Wheat, Potatoes, Corn, Cotton, 
etc., while on the other hand there 
is a Shortage of fruits.

Easy Money 
There are no secrets involved in 
making big money with fruits. 
Plant our selected varieties and success is assured. 
Thousands of other farmers with land like yours and 
with the same training and ability have paid for their 
farms and become independent growing fruit. 
There is nothing but you yourself to keep you from 
making the Big Profits enjoyed by others. You have 
the land, we have the trees, so let’s get together. 
Every dollar invested in our quality, time proven trees 
will reap you several dollars of profits. 
Plant Harrisons' Selected Trees 
Hundreds of our friends visit us at Berlin every 
year. Scarcely any one who looks over our Nurseries 
fails to express wonder at their extent, and admira- 
tion at the care with which we till each individual 
block; weeds are kept down throughout the season. 
Fruits and Ornamentals alike receive painstaking 
attention. 
But for the rest of our friends—those who have not 
come—a little explanation of our methods of growing 
stock and handling orders may be interesting. 
We grow our stock and sell it direct to planters. 
Thus we know the origin of all our stock and can 
euarantee it perfectly free from disease. 
We cultivate the trees more carefully in the nur- 
sery row than the intelligent farmer cultivates his 
rows of corn. This careful tending plays a great 
part in producing for each tree a vigorous root and 
shapely top. 
Visit us when you will—and there is never a time 
when you are not welcome—you will notice the clean, 
well-worked condition of every row of trees in our 
large nursery acreage. 
A peach orchard is a profitable investment.

Farms 
One of Harrisons’ famous 
This constant mellowing of the soil and destroying 
of weeds plays a vastly more important part in assur- 
ing good trees—trees that produce in the orchard— 
than many nurserymen, or growers either, realize. 
When it comes to budding we spare no pains to get 
everything exactly right and the varieties true to 
name. Every bud—every inch of propagating wood— 
comes from trees that we have been watching closely 
for years, and whose fruit is critically inspected season 
after season. 
In short, the “ancestry” of every Harrison tree— 
root, trunk, and branch—is history to us before it 
leaves our nurseries. We cannot afford to take 
chances; neither can you, for it is too late to remedy 
mistakes when your trees come into bearing. 
Harrisons Service 
“Harrison Service” goes further than selling good 
trees and packing and shipping them right. We help 
you first, if you wish, in Selecting suitable varieties 
for your soil, climate and market conditions; we tell 
you about the special care each variety needs; how 
each fruits best, and when the crop ripens. This 
information is at your service before you buy—after 
you buy—always; it is absolutely free to you without 
“strings” of any kind. 
Our great experimental fruiting orchards of peaches 
on the home place at Berlin, and our extensive apple 
plantations in West Virginia and Western Maryland 
are under the personal observation of the Proprietors, 
as are also our orchards of plums, pears, cherries and 
other small fruits. 
Better fruits can come only from better trees planted on ideal soils, correctly fertilized, properly pruned, 
and well cultivated. A guarantee of these trees must be parent trees of proven character and performance
