COMAL SPRINGS NURSERY 
Cone»beartnQ Evergreens. 
We do not think we exagerate when we say that we have the largest 
stock of the cone-bearing evergreens in the State. We have in fact almost 
overstocked ourselves with them, and can afford to sell extra fine plants at a 
very low price. We grow all and only such varieties as succeed in Texas. 
Sizes are from 1 foot up to 7 feet, and the prices, as you \vill notice, are lower 
than those of any other nursery, taking in consideration the quality of the 
plants.
