THE HARMON NURSERY 
Growers of Better Trees and Plants 
PROSPECT, OHIO 
This is a real bargain. This makes the eighth year we have offered 
these fine little trees and our sales and testimonials last year prove the 
popularity and value of them. One garden club alone purchased over 
eleven thousand trees in one order after seeing the quality of the trees 
we send out. 
At this low price you can purchase a number of trees and grow them 
into fine specimen plants or mass them in your woodland, make a wind- 
break or plant them for timber. One Fishing and Yacht Club purchased 
IfOO black walnut with the idea of developing a timber grove. 
The little trees we offer are three'year-old seedlings and are two to 
three feet tall. They are large enough to transplant easily and will adapt 
themselves quickly to their new places. 
We have some fine trees to ship this season and planting instructions 
will be sent with each order.
