BAKER NURSERIES 
WE GUARANTEE OUR STOCK TO REACH YOU 
IN GOOD CONDITION 
All will be State inspetced, and a certificate of inspection will be 
attached to your order, and it will please you. Weather and soil con¬ 
ditions and the way stock is handled after it leaves us will have much 
to do with its growing and doing well, due to all of these things 
being beyond our control you can see we cannot guarantee the stock 
to live and grow, because that depends entirely upon you, and in 
making your order to this you agree.

The number of plants required for an acre, at any given distance 
apart may be ascertained by dividing the number of square feet in an 
acre (43,560) by the number of square feet given to each plant, 
which is obtained by multiplying the distance between the rows by 
the distance between the plants. Thus, strawberries planted 3 feet by 
1 foot gives each plant 3 square feet, or 14,520 plants to the acre.
