What our friends say about us 
# 
Y3ESULTS are what the world wants these days. 
* Here is a record of the results our nursery stock 
has made in ten different orchards. We have scores 
of other letters similar to these—more than enough to 
fill this entire hook alone. If you are in doubt after 
having read these splendid letters, write and we will 
send you others — if you are convinced, then let us 
prove that our nursery stock will do as much for YOU. 
UNIFORM QUALITY. GOOD AND 
HEALTHY 
[From Wm. Rennie, manager Barton 
Vineyard Co., Fresno, Cal.] 
"We are In receipt of your letter 
concerning our success with your trees. 
We are pleased to say that we have 
had excellent results, taking all fac¬ 
tors into consideration. The trees have 
been uniformly good and healthy. 
Where there has been failure It was 
not tho fault of the trees. Your ball¬ 
ed olive trees made a remarkable 
showing under poor conditions. Tho 
various plantings of orange trees which 
were made on the Dunn-Lines ranch 
have also made an excellent show¬ 
ing and given us tho best of results." 
TREES OF CHOICE AND EXCEL¬ 
LENT QUALITY 
[From L. F. Graham, president Flick- 
Inger Orchard and Cannery, San 
Jose, Cal.] 
"For a number of years we have 
been planting young trees nearly every 
winter. Fortunately a few years ago 
we were directed to you. in order to 
secure a certain quantity of Bartlett 
Pear trees. These trees were so 
choice, of such excellent quality, and 
made such a splendid growth, that 
we have been constrained, nearly every 
year since, to purchase all of our nur¬ 
sery trees from vou. Any fruit grower 
desiring reallv first-class trees, true to 
name, cannot, we believe, make anv 
mistake in securing his requirements 
from you." 
WELL PLEASED WITH RESULTS 
[From R. C. Merryman, secretary 
Merryman Fruit. Land & Lumber 
Co.. Exeter. Cal.] 
"Replying to yours of the 27th, 
would say that, ail the plants we re¬ 
ceived from you this year are doing 
fine and we are very well pleased with 
results." 
THE IMPORTANCE OF HEALTHY 
STOCK 
[From W. Flanders Setchel, the Set- 
chel Fruit Co., Fresno, Cal.] 
"Answering your inquiry of the 14th 
ult., I am pleased to state that in 
tho course of my experience I have 
acquired an implicit confidence in the 
reliability of your nursery stock. Fur¬ 
ther, I have found it to bo of a 
markedly superior quality. A realiza¬ 
tion of the vital importance of plant¬ 
ing only the healthiest and mast vig¬ 
orous stock, together with a deep 
appreciation of your unfailing service, 
has made of me a confirmed customer 
of your house.” 
QUALITY TREES AND GOOD 
SERVICE 
[From Dr. Albert H. Kalbfleisch, tho 
Evergreen Farm, Mercedes, Texas.] 
"It is the desire of the writer to 
thank you for courteous treatment and 
tho good stock of trees that you ship¬ 
ped to him. Such stock would almost 
grow in any kind of climate or soil. 
There were 900 grapefruit trees in this 
car, of which number the writer lost 
but two. The balling was of the very 
best and I do not hesitate to say that 
any person buying trees, selected with 
tho same care and planted under sim¬ 
ilar conditions, should have the same 
percentage of growth." 
A BUYER FOR TWENTY-FIVE 
YEARS 
[From Frank H. Newell, Fruit Grower 
Formosa, Cal.] 
"We will want about 900 pruno 
trees (Petite, on peach roots) for next 
spring's setting, to be delivered about 
February 1. This is early for an or¬ 
der, but when wo get away from the 
ranch, which we do in the winter, wo 
are apt to neglect such things. My 
first order for trees from the Fresno 
Nursery Company was placed in 1891. 
and wo have been getting trees from 
you at intervals ever since, and have 
found the stock to bo invariably ex¬ 
cellent in quality and true to variety 
when they come into bearing." 
GOOD. VIGOROUS TREES 
[From I. G. Zumwalt, Zumwalt & 
Ragain, Fresno, Cal.] 
"Answering your favor of May 30th, 
will state that I am glad to say that 
I purchased from you six years ago 
last January four thousand (4000) 
pruno trees, and they have proved to 
be good, vigorous trees, and all true 
to name." 
IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND 
SATISFACTORY 
[From H. T. Iladen. Fruit Grower, 
Dlnuba, Cal.] 
"Yours of the 6th inst., with en¬ 
closures, received. Trees and shrubs 
arrived in excellent condition and are 
entirely satisfactory. I am pleased to 
add that ray dealings with your con- 
ce-n, covering the past six years, have 
been most pleasant. The trees and 
vines purchased from you have proven 
entirely as represented." 
PLANTS 56,000 VINES—ALL DOING 
WELL 
[From John F. Wallace, Yineyardist, 
College City, Cal.] 
"This last spring I put out over 
r.6,000 seedless grape vines from your 
nursery, which were put in under all 
kinds of weather conditions. They 
all gave a fine growth and are doing 
well. They surely were a nice lot of 
vines and were very satisfactory." 
A BUYER FOR TWELVE YEARS 
[From A. W. Goodfollow, Fruit 
Grower. Frcsuo, Cal.] 
"I havo been doing business with 
the Fresno Nursery Company for more 
than twelve years, and am pleased to 
say that orders have always been filled 
in a very satisfactory manner. I have 
always l>een careful to specify first- 
class nursery stock and have been 
much gratified with the results ob¬ 
tained.”
