Historical 
HE LINN COUNTY NURSERY was established in 1892 by A. 
Snyder & Son* After the death of the senior member of the firm, it 
was conducted for several years by S. W. Snyder, who in 1907 was 
joined by a younger brother, under the firm name of Snyder Bros. 
Both the present members, therefore, have had a long experience 
in this business, and in eighteen years have seen it grow from a few 
rows of stock on the farm to over thirty acres of stock, growing 
mostly at Center Point. 
A certificate of Nursery Inspection certifying that our nurseries have been in- 
spected by the State Entomologist and found free from all dangerous insects, pests 
and diseases is attached to all orders that leave our nurseries. 
Visitors Welcome. Tree-lovers find much satisfaction in seeing and selecting the 
stock they buy; we therefore, take pleasure in inviting all interested in nursery stock 
to visit our nurseries and inspect the stock. 
Any one wanting extra fine or large specimens of Evergreens or Shade Trees can 
select them at any time of the year. Anything thus selected will be tagged with the 
customer's name and delivered at the proper time. 
Varieties Not Listed in This Catalog 
We have some trees of many kinds not listed in this catalog. If you do not see 
what you want, write us; we can secure for you anything grown by any American 
nurseryman, if we do not have it, and the price will be right. 
Introductory 
It is our intention in this catalog to furnish accurate descriptions and in every 
case avoid exaggerations which are so common in nursery catalogs. We aim to test 
out every variety in our orchard before giving it a place in the catalog. We have 
trees of a number of very promising new fruits and plants which will be described 
separately on a circular.
