Orchard Trees and Small Fruits. 
The nursery industry throughout the State, and indeed throughout the Southwest, 
has been in a transition state during the past few years — a condition bordering onto 
stagnation induced and intensified by three or four seasons of scant rainfall. This has 
made the sale of citrus and deciduous fruit trees during that period rather dull, and as 
a consequence much stock became unsalable while at the same time many trees were dug 
up and burned. This has made nursery stock scarce and prices this year have materially 
advanced. It is now safe to say that the period of depression has lifted; people with 
the advent of plenty of rain, are planting freely; confidence in commercial horticulture 
has been restored; the demand for trees is now almost in excess of the source of supply. 
Under these conditions specific prices in large quantities can not be given here, but in 
spite of that fact we want our patrons to understand that we can supply citrus and 
deciduous fruit trees of all varieties as low as is consistent with good reliable stock. 
Fifteen years experience in this line has not been without its advantages. We are at all 
times ready to quote prices. The following prices are subject to change without notice:

Brandywine. Bright red all over, fine flavor, and a good fall and winter bearer.50 4.00 
Laxton’s Noble. Recently introduced into Southern California seems to agree 
perfectly with this climate. Is fully as productive as the Arizona Everbearing, but 
a great deal more profitable on account of being 5 or 6 weeks earlier. The berry is 
very large, of a beautiful dark red color all over .50 4.00 
Lady Thomson. Very productive, large, bright red. Very hardy, standing frost 
in early spring better than most varieties. It is one of the earliest, good bearing 
sorts, bringing the highest market price, no insects bother it.....50 4.00
