BAKER NURSERIES 
WE GUARANTEE OUR STOCK TO REACH YOU 
IN GOOD CONDITION 
All will be State inspected, and a certificate of inspection will be 
attached to your order, and it will please you. Weather and soil con¬ 
ditions and the way stock is handled after it leaves us will have much 
to do with its growing and doing well, due to all of these things 
being beyond our control you can see we cannot guarantee the stock 
to live and grow, because that depends entirely upon you, and in 
making your order to this you agree. 
TREATMENT OF TREES, ETC., THAT HAVE BEEN 
FROZEN IN THE PACKAGE OR RECEIVED 
DURING FROSTY WEATHER 
Put them upopened in a cellar or some other cool, protected place, 
free from frost, or cover them up heavily or entirely with earth until 
they are fully thawed out, then they can be unpacked and planted or 
placed in trenches until convenient to plant. Treated in this way they 
will not be injured by the freezing.

: number of plants required 
for. at 
i acre, at any 
given distance 
may 
be ascertained by dividing the 
number of square feet in an 
acre (43,560) by the number of square feet given to each plant, 
which is obtained by multiplying the distance between the rows by the 
distance between the plants. Thus, strawberries planted 3 feet by 1 
foot gives each plant 3 square feet, or 14,520 plants to the acre.
