INTRODUCTION 
We are glad to hand you our 1912 catalog and to take this opportunity to thank 
former customers for their liberal patronage. We especially appreciate the interest 
many of our patrons take in telling their neighbors about our trees. , 
Do not overlook our hints on transplanting and after care, as much of your success 
in planting will depend on the care you give your trees. We will furnish you with good, 
healthy, well rooted trees and we ask you to plant them carefully. This is the only way 
to get results. 
While we take the greatest care with small orders our specialty is large orchard 
orders and our greatest pride is in the many true to name orchards we have in such 
great orchard sections as Western New York. 
From Grower to Planter 
Our plan of disposing of our trees direct to the planter has long been considered 
by the most careful buyers as the practical way to buy nursery stock. In buying trees 
it is quite essential that they should pass through as few hands as possible before 
reaching the place of planting as this method saves expense as well as liability of mis- 
takes. The Farmers Bulletin from the Department of Agriculture makes a strong point 
when theyjiold that mistakes, injuries and exposures are much less likely to occur when 
trees are purchased direct from the grower.
