IMPORTANT NOTICE 
Due to the drought of the last two years, I 
hardly any seedlings of apple, pear, plum, ■ 
cherry and peach trees survived and there is 
a great shortage of all fruit trees for planting 
in 1936. We are fortunate in having con- , 
tracted for a supply of good trees to offer to 
early buyers this spring. 
There is room in your yard or near your 
farm home for trees. Even if you need only 
one tree, plant it this spring. We deliver 
trees to you at prices quoted. 
Weigela Eva Rathke
