The difference be¬ 
tween the first cost of 
good trees and poor 
ones is slight, but when 
inferiority is planted 
there can be harvested 
nothing better than 
multiplied inferiority. 
The folly of planting 
poor stock is paid for 
each year, in chagrin— 
a hundred fold loss over 
the original saving. We 
offer you only the best, 
with the statement that 
there is no substitute 
for quality.
