HARDY FRUIT TREES 
For the North-west. 
REASONS WHY it is greatly for the interest of all 
persons in the North-west to est their fruit and ornamental 
trees, shruhs, and plants at GOULD'S N UKSEIilES : 
BECAUSE more than fifteen years' experience has 
demonstrated what kinds are hardy in this climate. The 
Ti'tofsky Apple was first introduced in the West by us. 
BECAUSE their fruit trees are grafted on stocks raised 
by them from Wisconsin hardy fruit seeds. 
BECAUSE it is a specialty with them to cultivate a 
large bunch of fibrous roots, rather than a large Btalk with 
poor roots, which doubtless is the reason so few of the trees 
Sic taken from GOULD'S NUISSEBIES. 
BECAUSE 20 to 51) per cent can be saved by ordering 
direct From the Nurseries, and everything warranted true to 
name.
