Cochise County, Arizona, July 31, 1911. 
Gentlemen: I am going to want to buy from 1500 to 2500 peach trees for Fall planting. 
Kindly advise price, varieties, and when you can ship. The trees that I bought of you a little 
over a year ago are doing fine. Some of them I allowed to bear a peach or two which were 
delicious and true to name. Awaiting your early reply, I am, 
(Signed) H. S. BUCKLEY.

Gentlemen: Regardless of the delay of nearly two months caused by the railroad, the 
stock is in perfect condition. 
Yours very truly, 
GRANGERS NURSERIES. 
ONE- YEAR TREES 
We advocate the planting of one-year trees, upon the following grounds, and especially 
the 1 to 2 and 2 to 3 feet, and if you want a higher priced tree, the 3 to 4 feet grades. 
When transplanted in the orchard, the one-year tree takes hold of the soil, and the shock 
does not stunt the growth as it does the two-year old. They come into bearing sooner, live 
longer, and can be trained and pruned to suit the taste of each individual. The one-year is a 
great deal cheaper, and lessens the planter's original investment, and also lessens transpor- 
tation charges. We recommend one-year planting. 
Here is what prominent Horticulturists and Experiment Stations say: 
"It is the belief of this station that the one-year apple tree is better, most economical, and 
the safest tree to plant."— J. C. Whittcn, Experiment Station, University of Missouri, 
Columbia, Mo. 
Below we quote from the Maryland Agricultural Experiment Station Bulletin No. 144, 
written by Mr. C. P. Close, State Horticulturist, which appears under the heading, "Age and 
Kind of Nursery Trees for Planting:" 
"The writer prefers, above all others, a well grown, one-year-old tree. A one-year-old 
tree may be headed low, and the first crop of branches may be used for the foundation branches, 
selecting those best placed. Furthermore, a one-year-old tree is cheaper than a two-year-old. 
"My advice is always in favor of the one-year-old tree. Fully 90% of all apple trees 
that are now planted for commercial use are of this age." — G. B. Bracket, U. S. Pomologist. 
"I have advocated the planting of one-year-old trees for years. You get a better root 
system in the one-year trees, and one-year trees pack better, arrive in better order, and at less 
freight and express cost to the planter." — J. H. Hale, "The Peach King."

Gentlemen: Trees received to-day all right. They were the finest lot of trees that I evei 
bought for the money.

A NATURAL FRUIT TREE AND PLANT CLIMATE 
The most important fact is that we offer you trees and plants grown in an ideal climate — 
a central climate — a climate that is especially adapted to the growing of nursery stock. It 
is easy for any one to realize that stock so grown is sturdy, and transplanting will not, nor 
does it in a noticeable measure, interfere with their growth and development of fruit produc- 
tion.
