Prepare Now for Our Returning Songbirds 
B IRD houses erected now and ready for the birds on their return from migration will 
insure their being occupied. A few weeks of weathering will help make them more 
popular with the birds, and will cause them to blend with the natural surrounding. 
Erect Dodson Bird Houses 
they are scientifically built by Mr. Dodson, who 
has spent a lifetime in studying the songbirds, their 
habits, and in attracting them to beautiful “Bird 
Lodge,” his home and bird sanctuary on the Kan- 
kakee River. 
Dodson Bird Houses will add to the 
beauty of your grounds, and the song- 
birds, besides singing for you, will 
protect your trees, shrubs, flowers and 
gardens.

403 Perfect peaches on 4 
year old tree. 
Mr. C. E. Straw-bridge, of Lima, 
Ohio, writes us under elate of Aug- 
ust 25, 1920, as follows: "On April 
10, 1916, I set out one of your new 
Rochester Peach trees. Last year 
we picked 5 peaches from it, each 
averaging the size of an average tea 
cup. THIS YEAR WE HAVE 
PICKED EXACTLY 403 LARGE 
PEACHES FROM THIS ONE 
TREE. Many people have seen this 
tree, and can hardly believe their 
own eyes. One of its admirers was 
Postmaster J. E. Sullivan who 
wants me to put him in touch with 
the “FELLOWS WHO HAVE SUCH 
TREES FOR SALE.” 
'J'REES planted in Spring, 1918, bore 150 to 200 peaches past summer. 
THE EARLIEST YELLOW FREESTONE PEACH KNOWN 
“Rochester is greatest money making peach in the world.” — Statement by 
large orchardist. 
Originated in Rochester, New York, tree is a strong, upright grower, has 
stood sixteen degrees below zero and produced a full crop, while the 
Elberta and Crawford, under the same conditions in the same orchard, pro- 
duced no blossoms and consequently no fruit. 
Mr. Yarker, Greece, N. Y., who has an orchard of 500 trees, reports 17 peaches picked in 
August from a tree planted the previous spring. 
Mr. C. M. Thomas, 215 W. 40th St., Savannah, Ga., purchased a Rochester 
Peach from us last February, and picked the first fruit in July. 
We are headquarters for genuine Rochester Peach. 
Price, medium size, 3-4 feet, $1.00 each; $10.00 per 12. Extra size, 4-6 feet, Si. 50 each; 
$15.00 per 12.
