"GROWING WITH 
CALIFORNIA" 
1936- —A year of achievement. Marked by the completion of the great 
San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge and the commencement of the 
Golden Gate International Exposition, the year has seen stabilization of 
California’s agriculture. 
1937— A year rich with promise! On every side are evidences of 
basically sound conditions . . . new homes, civic improvements, busy 
stores, transportation facilities again operating near capacity, and the rich 
back country dotted with well-kept farms that are a credit to the state. 
This is the 72nd year of our service to California fruit growers and 
to home owners. The California Nursery Company has literally “grown 
up” with Our State. Many of the leading commercial fruits of today 
were first introduced to growers from our test orchards, a fact which 
is a source of pride to us, as well as a continuing responsibility. We have 
also had a large share in the beautification of home gardens and parks 
during our many years of service to our neighbors in the several metro¬ 
politan centers clustered about San Francisco Bay. As nurserymen, we 
are extremely proud of our district’s world-wide reputation as “garden 
headquarters of the nation.”
