BAKER NURSERIES 
APPLES 
"An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away.” 
What tastes better than fruit picked from your own trees? The 
fruit grower with a large commercial orchard should grow apples; the 
farmer in his home orchard should have apples; the owner of the small 
let or suburban property should have a few apple trees in his yard.
