Fruit Trees and Bushes 
We are specialists in Fruit 
Trees for the private individual 
and our stock is grown more es- 
pecially for this class of trade. 
Our list is somewhat limited, 
iaecause we offer only what we 
consider is essentially adapted 
to the Montana climate. Mon- 
tana is a cold state and it is use- 
less as we have proved from our 
experience — to expect varieties 
that do well in milder loca- 
tions to s'tand our winters. If, 
however, you are desirous of 
getting something we do not list, 
let us know, and we will sup- 
ply you, at the same time giving 
you our candid advice. All the 
trees listed here we can honestly 
recommend for hardiness and 
good value, in all the best of the 
standard varieties. Our experi- 
ence is offered to you in this 
catalog in its entirety.
