trees—trees that you feed and care for but that don’t

places Greening Super Selected Fruit Trees—“Trees

A Regrafting Suggestion—Read What Farleys are Doing 
Here is a letter from one of the best known and 
most successful orchardists in the country—Farley 
Brothers, Albion, Michigan. 
Here is the statement of an experienced and highly 
successful fruit grower whose opinion and endorse¬ 
ment we value highly. If we were to write an entire 
book on the subject, we couldn’t say more. That one 
sentence tells the whole story—“We will regraft our 
Northern Spy trees to yours.” 
The Northern Spy trees already in the Farley 
orchards are the best obtainable under the old methods 
of tree propagation and tree selection, but they are 
not good enough. In the fruit tree business, as in all 
others—it is the survival of the fittest—the most ad¬ 
vanced—the most efficient—the most profitable. Trees 
that were considered good trees years ago are second- 
raters now. Trees that paid out years ago are “drones” 
and “boarders” now. Trees that have been “weighed 
in the scales” and found wanting must go—must be 
replaced with trees of maximum productive ability. 
Greening Super Selected Trees qualify. Buy them. 
Try them. Watch them grow. Keep close check on 
their early bearing and higher yields. When you do, 
you will quickly agree with thousands of other suc¬ 
cessful fruit growers that they represent the highest 
development of the art of fruit tree propagation!

Oentlemon: 
We Just sent you by express prepaid one 
bUBhel of Northern Spies picked from super selected 
stock purchased from you seven years last soring. 
You will note their wonderful color and 
exceptionally uniform size and shape. 
I'o say that we are pleased with the one 
hundred spy trees received at that time is express¬ 
ing it mildly. A good per cent showod fruit, many a 
peck per tree and a few one-half bushel this year. 
We would not plant any other strain, even 
though they cost us nothing, except to top work to 
your stock.
