Our 50th Anniversary 
Gift to Baldwin Buyers 
It’s our birthday and the treat’s on us! For 
50 years, we have been supplying thousands 
of buyers with the best true-to-name varieties 
of plants, vines, and trees Mother Nature 
provides. This year—our 50th—we are out to 
break our lifetime record with an offer that 
you cannot possibly afford to miss. 
Here’s An Offer • • • 
Thai Is An Offer! 
To every customer . . . new or old . . . whose 
order totals $3.00 or more, we will include a 
first grade Douglas Pear Tree absolutely FREE! 
This order must be at regular catalog rates and 
the total must be $3.00 or more after discount 
is deducted. 
This Douglas is truly a wonder as an early 
producer of Grade A Pears. Most folks with 
ordinary pear trees have to wait 5 or 6 years 
for a good crop, but not if they plant Douglas. 
This great tree often produces fruit the second 
year; in fact, some young Douglas trees have 
borne fruit in the nursery row. It is very re¬ 
sistant to blight and has been known to bear 
fruit from a second set of blossoms after the 
first set was frozen. Yes Sir! You’ll like Douglas. 
And remember, any 1939 order of $3.00 or 
more means that a Douglas will be included 
with our compliments if you want it; be sure 
to mention it on your order. The supply of 
Douglas is limited. Why not make up your 
“DOUGLAS PEAR” Is The Name order now and get an early choice of this early
