HERE IS OUR SALESMAN 
This little catalog goes to you as our only salesman for Nursery Stock. We depend 
upon your orders for our success. We appreciate early orders. Order now, pay at 
shipping time. We have tried to make our prices as reasonable as possible and still 
send you good plants. 
We guarantee satisfaction or money refunded. We are offering only the best 
varieties that have been tried and found to be worthy. For more than 30 years we 
have been telling you the same story about plants, advising you to set only the best. 
It pays big to do this if you are interested in profits. 
We had a very favorable spring for setting plants so our planting was done early. 
We have one of the best crops of plants we have ever grown,—well rooted and large. 
When planning your order for plants this season you should be concerned with the 
record of the firm from whom you purchase. Our old customers know the kind of 
plants we send them. New customers ordering from us for the first time we wish 
to say to them, give us a trial order and find out for yourself. I am sure you will 
be pleased. We appreciate the orders received the past season. 
We wish you a Prosperous year in 1939. As always we will be glad to serve you 
to the best of our ability when you entrust your orders with us. 
Sincerely, 
E. W. POTTER.

CULTURE FOR BEST RESULTS 
The soil for asparagus must be well drained. Dig trenches about 15 inches deep 
and 3 feet apart, using plenty of good manure. Set the roots about 18 inches apart, 
spreading them well. Cover to a depth of about 2 inches, adding more soil until the 
trenches are entirely filled by the end of the season. A light cutting, if any, should 
be made the next spring.
