HARRISONS’ NURSERIES 
What We Do for Our Customers 
S OMETIMES a landowner has wisely decided to plant fruit trees, 
but doesn’t know the varieties to which his land is best adapted, 
and it is here that our service to fruit-tree planters is valuable. If you 
will write us briefly, telling the location of the land, which way it 
slopes, and whether the soil is sand, loam, or clay, we will advise you 
what varieties of apples, peaches, or other fruits seem to be best 
adapted to profitable orcharding in your section. 
In our help and advice to you we bring to bear what we have learned 
in the many years spent in raising fruit for market, and our long ex¬ 
perience is at your service. We have expert orchardists who have 
supervised the planting of orchards for many years and their suggestive 
helps are yours for the asking. If you are intending to plant a large 
orchard, we can furnish a man to supervise the planting at a slight 
cost above his actual expenses. 
When you buy fruit trees from Harrisons’ Nurseries, you pay for 
the trees alone and get a service that is worth as much as the trees 
themselves. 
The nursery stock listed in this catalogue is the best that experience 
and care can grow. Each plant is carefully examined before leaving 
our packing-sheds; every plant that goes out is right and Harrisons’ 
Nurseries (the largest in the world) are back of it. Order from this 
catalogue on the inclosed order-blank. 
Designing Landscapes 
I F YOU want to make your home beautiful with Harrisons’ Orna- * 
mentals, our expert designers will be glad to & ive you valuable 
hints that will help greatly. Some of our friends consider it wise to 
employ a landscape architect when making extensive plantings and 
desire to have us handle the work. Then they are sure that the plant¬ 
ing is in keeping with the quality of the trees they get from Harrisons 5 
Nurseries. In such cases we are glad to send one of our landscape 
experts to lay out the grounds and give you the advantage of his 
experience. If you need help in working out an effective scheme, we 
shall be glad to hear from you. 
A word at the end of the chapter 
HPHE trees and shrubs that are named and priced in this booklet 
are the best that experience and expert attention can produce. 
Before any tree or shrub leaves our packing-house it is carefully ex¬ 
amined, and a specimen is never permitted to leave unless it is up to 
standard. This costs money—but it protects our customers.
