Our new modern head¬ 
quarters— designed and 
built to give you just the 
kind of service you want. 
We are very happy to be in our new, 
modern building. For over a year 
we worked on the preliminary plans. 
Last summer actual construction 
was started and the building fin¬ 
ished just before Christmas. 
The capacity of this large building 
is almost 500,000 cubic feet. Built of 
concrete and brick, it is absolutely 
fireproof. It contains special rooms 
with controlled temperature and 
humidity for handling nursery stock; 
also special seed rooms. We are 
particularly proud of our ventilating 
system (proper ventilation is the 
most important requirement in a 
nursery building). It is our own 
original plan and enables us to keep 
our stock in perfect condition. 
We have been told that we now 
have the finest equipment and loca¬ 
tion of any nursery in America. In 
the first place, our land is the 
world-famous Marshall Loess soil, 
considered the finest on earth. In 
the second place, we have our own 
experienced growers. In the third 
place, we have this large, modern 
building, which means that from 
the time the stock is dug in the 
fields and brought into this build¬ 
ing, it is handled under ideal con¬ 
ditions. All this means Better Stock, 
Better Service, at Reasonable Prices. 
A general view of an Inter-State field con¬ 
taining almost 500,000 apple, cherry, pear 
and plum. Trees like these have made Inter- 
State Fruit Trees known the country over. 
The house in the background is a mile away.

Remember that we do not ship the 
nursery stock until it is the right time 
for you to plant. 
So many folks wait until the last minute 
before they send in their orders. This 
makes it just like a Christinas rush in a 
big department store. If we get your 
order early, we can do all the preliminary 
work, such as booking order, writing 
labels and tags, etc. Then when the 
time comes for shipping, it is an easy 
matter to send out your order because 
everything is all ready to go. 
Therefore, if you will send us your order 
for NURSERY STOCK reasonably early, 
you may select FREE PREMIUMS as per 
the following schedule. 
On orders of $3.00 to $5.00, you may 
select ANY ONE of the 12 following Free 
Premiums. 
On orders of $5.00 to $9.00, you may 
select ANY TWO Free Premiums. 
On orders of $9.00 and up, you may- 
select ANY FOUR Free Premiums. 
FREE PREMIUMS 
No. 1—3 Full Size Packets Flower 
Seeds (1 Packet Shirley Tem¬ 
ple Sweet Peas, 1 Packet 
Fantasy Zinnias and 1 Packet 
Theodosia Petunia). 
No. 2—4 Lily Erectum (fine red lily). 
No. 3—12 Glads, all different, choic¬ 
est colors, not labeled.

Thus you have your choice of twelve 
different Free Premiums. Nearly every 
one is worth at least fifty cents. They 
will be included right with your other 
stock. 
REMEMBER, THESE FREE PREM¬ 
IUMS ARE ONLY ON ORDERS FOR 
NURSERY STOCK. For Free Premiums 
on seed orders, please see page 56. 
Suppose your order of nursery stock 
amounts to $3.85 (or any amount between 
$3.00 and $5.00) and you want the 3 
Packets of Flower Seeds as your Free 
Premium. Then at the bottom of your 
nursery stock order, you simply write 
down “Free Premium No. 1”. If your 
nursery stock order amounts to $5.35 
(or any amount between $5.00 and $9 00) 
then you get two Free Premiums, alike 
or different, your choice of any of the 
above twelve Free Premiums. If your 
order of nursery stock is $9.00 or over, 
you may select any four Free Premiums, 
alike or assorted. Just write down the 
numbers of the Free Premiums you 
select. 
Ordering early helps you because you get 
these valuable Free Premiums. Also you 
get the full benefit of planting early, 
because with early orders we have every¬ 
thing ready to ship just as soon as plant¬ 
ing conditions are right, and you are 
sure to get what you want. Later in the 
season some items will be sold out. It 
helps us because it spreads the orders 
out over a longer period instead of 
bunching them up in just a few weeks. 
We can give you better service. 
Please be sure and write on your nursery order the free premiums you 
select, otherwise, none will be sent you.
