to grow stock on contract for us. The entire 5000'acre nurseries and orchards are Harrison owned, 

 Harrison supervised. This enables us to ehminate possibiHty of error in variety, or lack of qual' 

 ity, in the stock we place at the disposal of our customers. 



We Insure the Continued High Quality of Our Stock. Our fruit trees 



are propagated only from bearing orchards, and the buds cut only from the most consistently 

 heavybearing trees included in those orchards. This is an enormous improvement over the old 

 nursery method of cutting the buds from young trees in the nursery rows, which have never borne, 

 and then to certify as to the correctness of the name of each tree. By this method, possible chance 

 of propagating stock untrue-to name is eliminated. The bearing orchard, PRODUCING FRUIT, is 

 the only method by which we determine the varieties from which the buds are taken. 



Forty-seven YearS^ Experience. Harrisons' Nurseries, for forty-seven years have 

 carefully studied the proper methods for propagation. If we did not think our method far supc 

 rior to shipping certified trees, depending on outside opinion for trueness to name of the varieties 

 we produce, we would not have successfully supplied the orchardists of this country with a de- 

 pendable' stock that has stood the test of time over such a long period. 



Our Responsibility to You. We realise the responsibility that is built around an 

 organi2.ation catering to the fruit trade and your selection of our varieties is the warranty that 

 whatever varieties you select are the true strain that you desire, and under no circumstances would 

 we attempt to substitute. 



The Facilities af a Large Organization are at Your Disposal. 



Our extensive fruit farms are operated with an organi2;ation of over five hundred people in this 

 particular branch. Shipments are made to all parts of this country and Europe, and the success 

 we have attained in this field is the background on which we are successfully propagating quality 

 trees that continue to give satisfaction to our thousands of patrons all over the world.
