Our Stock is all heavy grade with 
good root system and free of disease 
Largely as a result of experiments and breeding by the 
New York State Department of Agriculture in co-opera¬ 
tion with the New York State Fruit Testing Co-operative 
Association, most fruits have been greatly improved in size, 
color, texture and flavor. This was accomplished by breed¬ 
ing greater immunity to certain diseases, as for example 
peach mildew, apple scab, etc. 
Nurserymen now have available for sale new varieties, 
which so far surpass the standard varieties that we believe 
some of the old favorites should be discarded. We earn¬ 
estly urge our customers to consult our list when you are 
contemplating replacements or renewals in your orchards 
and vineyards. 
The varieties listed below have been tested and are 
highly recommended.
