APPLES, The King of All Fruits 
During the past ten years there have been but few commercial orchards planted. A recent cold 
winter done serious damage to a number of those already in bearing; so we believe it would well pay 
to plant now.

Gentlemen: 
It is a pleasure to recommend your nursery to 
anybody who wants fruit trees that are of g^ood 
quality and true to name, also reasonable in 
price, this statement being based on my own 
experience with trees for a forty-acre orchard 
that was planted in 1920 and 1922. One row of 
the Jonathans averaged three bushels per tree 
in 1926, and the other varieties have also started 
to bear nicely, particularly the Stayman and 
the Rome. 
Very truly yours, W. H. Matthews.

Gentlemen: 
I have been dealing with Cope’s Nursery for 
40 years and have always found the stock of 
good quality and true to name and can recom¬ 
mend them for honest dealing. 
Yours truly, C. J. Roller
