APRICOTS 
This fruit is so uncertain, generally, throughout the South that we do not 
recommend planting, unless it might be with a knowledge of what it is liable 
to do and with a hope that a tree or two will occasionally produce some of its 
most excellent fruit. Where protected by buildings the trees may occasionally give 
a crop. This season some trees planted in this section fruited fairly. Delicious 
when they do come. We grow many for Northern and Western planting, and so 
are able to offer the following varieties. 
Price, 25 cents each, $2 for 10

We price only ONE GRADE OF TREES — the very BEST. In orchard-planting, where 
you are handling trees in hundred or thousand lots, we recommend the planting of a medium or 
light grade, especially of Peach. If you are planning on a heavy planting, advise us as to about 
the quantity of stock wanted, and we will figure special prices on the light grades. 
The advice of the old Scotchman to his son was sound — “Keep planting a tree, Jock; ’twill 
grow while you are sleeping.”
