SPRING 1934 
50th Anniversary Price List of 
E. H. BURSON 
(The E. H. Burson Nursery, Clifton, N. Y.) 
Dear Old and Prospective New Patrons: 
I feel that no apology is necessary for this brief 
catalog at this time. 
For fifty years I have been interested in the grow¬ 
ing, digging, packing and shipping of good nursery 
trees and plants. Last Fall’s business shows that 80 
per cent of my patrons were patrons of the Spring 
of 1933 or the seasons of 1932. I consider this a won¬ 
derful proof that the stock I furnished and the serv¬ 
ices rendered were pleasing. What do you think 
about it? 
No hits, no runs, no nothing (with apologies to the 
Baseball Radio Broadcasters) No illustrations, no 
perplexing descriptions, no nothing, except brief, 
honest descriptions, and low prices for high-grade, 
worthy, well known varieties, with a guarantee of 
the usual good service. 
Should you be planning to plant little or much— 
some of the good old well tried, well known fruits, 
shrubs, roses, shade trees, evergreens, etc., or some 
of the newer varieties that have proven good. You 
will find many of these listed in this little half-century 
reminder. 
It is well known that there is a shortage in many 
of the good planting things at this time compared 
with the supply of a few years ago—also, that 
naturally the prices will be in instances increased, 
but for early orders my prices will be about the same 
as they were last season and possibly lower in in¬ 
stances where I have an unusually good supply. 
As the season advances it may be necessary to 
increase the prices of some scarce items. 
TERMS: Cash, Money Order, or Check with order 
are usual (Stamps will be acceptable for small 
amounts) but in the case of large orders, one quarter 
of the amount may be sent and the balance paid a 
few days before order is desired shipped. No charge 
for packing or delivery to R. R. 
Certificate of Inspection issued by the Department 
of Agriculture and Markets of the State of New York 
will be sent with every shipment whether by Express, 
Freight or Parcel Post. 
Stock by Parcel Post. I make a specialty of 
filling orders for Strawberry, Raspberry, Blackberry, 
Asparagus and Perennial Plants, also currants, 
Gooseberries, Grape Vines, and Hardy English Walnut 
Trees. Fruit Trees generally give better satisfaction
