FRUIT TREES 



Growing and improving fruit trees for thirty-eight years and 

 through the care and attention given them our name is known 

 to buyers, large and small, over the greater part of the country. 

 We annually bud from two to four million peach trees, and 

 plant one million to four million apple seedlings, to be budded 

 later on. 



We maintain a commercial orchard at Berlin, containing 

 about sixty thousand peach trees and forty thousand apple trees 

 and also other fruits for commercial and experimental purposes 

 and with other large orchards in Maryland, Delaware, Vir- 

 ginia and West Virginia it enables us to test our trees out 

 in various soils and climatic conditions so as to grow the best 

 Nursery Stock. These orchards are also used in conjunction 

 with our orchards at Berlin, for selecting superior buds- 



Our trees are grown in a favorable climate, where trees 

 grow well and fully mature, and which will transplant to any 

 corner of the earth where fruit can be grown. Through our 

 experience we can furnish our customers with the kind of 

 information which will enable them to plan a successful 

 orchard or plant shade trees, evergreens and shrubbery to 

 beautify their home. Every precaution is taken to see that all 

 Nursery Stock sold by us is true to name and healthy. 



In order to continue our policy to grow the best trees for 

 commercial planters, we have transferred our planting of seed 

 and seedlings to the water front on the Synepuxent Bay, in 

 full view of the Ocean where the young trees get the benefit 

 of the heavy morning dews, the rich fertile soil and the late 

 frosts, all of which allows them to develop and ripen to their 

 fullest perfection. 



Being orchardists ourselves and keeping up with the best 

 and most profitable varieties which are tested out in our fruit- 

 ing orchards in four states, gives us an advantage over most 

 Nurseries. 



From our commercial orchards we "pick and ship two hundred 

 to four hundred cars of peaches annually, and from one hundred 

 and fifty to three hundred cars of apples. 



SHADE TREES, EVERGREENS, FLOWERING 



SHRUBS, ETC. 



We do not mean by emphasizing fruit trees that we do not 

 grow shade trees, evergreens, flowering shrubs, etc. In fact we 

 specialize on these the same as fruit trees, having a large 

 acreage, and the same care as given the fruit trees is given the 

 shade trees, evergreens, flowering shrubs, etc. 



SHADE TREES 



We have a large variety of shade trees which are carefully 

 selected for what is most needed to set a home off and give the 

 proper shade. Among the varieties we grow are Norway 

 Maples, Pin Oaks, Oriental Plane, Purple Beech and other va- 

 rieties which will be found in our catalogue. 



EVERGREENS 



You will find in our catalogue the various specimens of Ever- 

 greens which we grow for home planting, such as Red Cedar, 

 Canadian Hemlock, Retinisporas, Koster Blue Spruce, Norway 

 Spruce and others. 



FLOWERING SHRUBS 



California Privet, Barberry and Broad Leaved Evergreens 

 and other varieties we carry a large variety of, one-third of 

 our output is usually in car load lots.
