A GUIDE TO MORE BEAUTIFUL, 
MORE FRUITFUL HOMES 
Herewith we present our annual book 
of better fruits and more beautiful flowers. 
This book is yours, and we trust your guide 
to a more beautiful, more fruitful home; a 
happier and healthier family. 
WHY YOU PLANT FRUIT TREES 
AND SHRUBS 
Your purpose in planting fruit trees 
and fruit plants is to grow big crops of de¬ 
licious tree and vine ripened fruit. Your 
purpose in planting roses and shrubs is to 
enable you to gather arm-loads of beautiful, 
fragrant flowers and to make your home a 
place of joy and contentment, a happier 
place to live. 
WE ARE YOUR NEIGHBORS 
In this book we offer only varieties 
which have been tested and found of ster¬ 
ling quality. We describe and picture them 
in their natural beauty and color, so that in 
the quiet of your home you can select ex¬ 
actly what you want. Our central location 
and the mailman make us neighbors. 
FORTY-EIGHT YEARS OF 
ACCUMULATED EXPERIENCE 
Our experience combined with the most 
scientific training has taught us that by 
intelligent selecting, breeding, watering and 
feeding we can propagate the kind of stock 
that will fulfill the purpose for which it 
was planted. 
WHY BRADLEY’S STOCK YIELDS 
QUICKER AND MORE LAVISHLY 
Our fields are kept in continuous cul¬ 
tivation, our young plants and trees are 
given the proper amount of hand-labor and 
fertilization to keep them growing in fine 
shape. 
Our soil is especially adapted to the 
growing of vigorous, strong, sturdy stock 
with long fibred roots and surging life, the 
kind of stock which matures faster, yields 
quicker and produces more lavishly. It has 
been proven that one good thrifty plant or 
tree will yield more than will 10 inferior 
trees or plants.
