FRUIT DEPARTMENT 
All our Fruit Trees are grown on whole Seedling roots. The advantages of these in promoting 
the health and thriftiness of trees over others grafted on pieces or sections of roots, or budded 
on stocks grown from cuttings, is acknowledged by the best authorities, and is easily apparent 
to the most casual observer. All two-year-old trees are branched low and are stocky, having- 
been cut down or headed back when yearlings, two feet above ground, except where noted. 
Although we quote fruit trees by height, it is to be understood that we will include in each 
grade any trees which are as stocky as the average of that grade, even if they do not fully 
attain the specified height. 
All of our Apple Trees and Grape Vines are fumigated with hydrocyanic gas when dug, so 
are the buds, cions, and cuttings, prior to budding, grafting, or planting out in Nursery. This 
positively kills any insects that may be thereon, without any injury to trees or vines. We have 
a Fumigating House, with three compartments, so that we can disinfect, at any time, either 50 
trees or 10,000.
