STARK BROTHERS’ WORLD’S FAIR FRUITS. 
Probably no concern in the nursery business has so thoroughly 
demonstrated the value of publicity as has the Stark Bros. Nurseries 
and Orchards Co., Louisiana, Mo. Persistent and varied advertising 
on a very large scale has made Stark Bros, a household name in a 
comparatively short time. 
The latest feature of this firm’s publicity enterprise is a 48-page book, 
9x12 inches in size, descriptive of their World’s Fair fruits. Twenty- 
two lithographed pages in colors are alternated with twenty-two pages 
of text and half-tone engravings. The lithographs portray vividly 
the many varieties of fruits grown by this company; the half-tones 
show the immense extent of their grounds and buildings; their offices, 
60x102 feet, five great packing houses, a grafting house, blacksmith and 
wood-making shops, etc. Scenes in nursery rows and in orchards are 
also shown. The book is a graphic presentation of views of an enor¬ 
mous industry, speaking plainer than words of a success based upon 
constant activity, good judgment, expert knowledge and universal 
fair dealing. All who visit the World’s Fair at St. Louis next year 
will hear much of Stark Bros, and what they have done to develop 
the fruit industry. They have branches at Starkdale, Mo.; Atlantic, 
la.; Huntsville, Ala.; Fayetteville, Ark.; Dansville, N. Y.; Portland, 
N. Y. The catalogue is the product of the Rochester Lithographing 
Co , Rochester, N. Y. An edition of 100,000 is being printed. 
Although only one and a half years in business, McHutchison & 
Co., of New York, shows very rapid progress, a recent shipment on 
one steamer from Holland being 423 cases of nursery stock.
