^ Cayuga Nurseries 
I 
Establithed by John Morse in 1847 
We have extensive plantings also at Lyons, Rochester and Dansville, N. Y. 
INTRODUCTION ' 
We make no appeal to the unthinking or those easily caught with fine phrases and 
long promises. 
You have herewith our 1913 catalog. With it former customers have our thanks for 
their patronage and our best wishes for a prosperous year; and we solicit prospective 
buyers to carefully consider the endorsements which our catalog carries from repre- 
sentative planters. See page 4. 
These nurseries were established sixty-six years ago. For thirty years they have 
been under their present management, and have grown until we now have large plant- 
ings at Cayuga, N. Y., Lyons, N. Y., Rochester, N\ Y., and Dansville, N. Y. 
Do you know that healthy trees, up to grade, and true to name are the only trees a 
nurseryman can deliver and stay long in business? 
The probability of your getting such trees is made sure by dealing with a very long 
established house widely known for accurate labeling. We earnestly request your most 
searching inquiry as to our reputation in this respect. 
Our trade is largely confined to l^rge orchardists who know good trees and de- 
mand exact labeling. The endorsements on a following page are all from men widely 
known as successful orchardists. No order too small for our best care. 
Buying any kind of goods direct from the producer saves middlemen's profits. 
Buying trees direct saves agents' heavy commissions and saves the bark of t^e tree's. 
The trees are less handled, less bruised. You pay less for better trees. 
Two elements make the price of a tree. • ■ 
First, the number of people who make a living from profits on the tree. Secoind, 
the amount of care used to make and keep the tree healthy, free from insects, up tb 
grade and true to name. 
Frankly, you save nothing on this second element when you buy Wiley's trees. 
You do save on the first. 
The combination is a price below the average, a tree the best. Many close, careful 
orchardists know that in the end Wiley's better trees cost less. 
Your success as a fruit grower depends very largely on the care with which you 
read and apply the instructions on page 2. We have given your trees the best care 
that long experience has taught us, and to get good results you, too, must give them 
good care.
