BAUR-STEINKAMP & COMPANY 
FOREWORD 
Nineteen thirty-three, like its predecessor, was a most trying one 
for the grower, and we sincerely hope that the year just beginning 
may realize our hopes for a revival of business and happier days for 
us all. One thing stands out most conspicuously and that is that 
those growers who have stuck to their guns, planted up to date 
varieties and practiced good cultural methods are faring better than 
those who have retrenched unduly. Knowing that to start with 
good stock is a long step toward success in growing, we have not 
let up in our efforts to maintain our usual high quality. Our stock 
today is as vigorous and healthy as it has been possible to make it. 
We invite your inspection. 
The prices quoted in this catalogue are for rooted cuttings unless 
otherwise noted. We sell twenty-five at hundred rates and two 
hundred fifty at thousand rates. All orders are accepted subject to 
availability of stock. We will consistently endeavor to supply you 
with stock that will prove entirely satisfactory. All bills are due the 
first day of the month following date of invoice. Your first order 
to us should be accompanied by satisfactory references. 
Give specific shipping directions, unless you wish to rely on our 
judgment as to the best means of forwarding. We recommend 
express during severe weather. In case of damage in transit, file 
claim with the forwarding company and notify us of your action. 
We will cooperate in establishing any just claim. 
There is hardly anything made that some man can not make a little worse 
and sell a little cheaper, and those people who consider 
price only are that man’s lawful prey. 
Think it over.
