Cole’s Selected Fruit Trees 
FRUIT GROWERS— 
ATTENTION! 
Fruit Tree and Plant prices are continuing 
at the lowest prices in many years. This 
condition is making for drastic curtailment of 
plantings by nurserymen throughout the 
country inasmuch as the general line has been 
and is being sold below the cost of production. 
After this year stock is going to be very scarce 
and much higher in price—In fact, we believe 
prices will double in the near future. 
Be sure and stock up now while such bar¬ 
gain prices are still available.

Quintuplet Apple Sensation 
The small home owner’s dream 
Bears steady from August until late Fall. 
Five varieties of apples on one tree. As the 
result of an often expressed desire by small 
home owners for a variety of fruit and the 
expressed regret that they had only room to 
plant one tree, Cole is offering a tree which 
has been grafted to five varieties of fruit. 
For an early apple one fifth of the tree will be 
Anoka; pronounced by experts to be one of 
the best and heaviest bearing of the early 
varieties, striped yellow and red. This variety 
will be followed by Red Rome Beauty, Jona¬ 
than, Yellow Delicious and Staymen Winesap 
which are among the finest varieties. See 
descriptions in main apple list.

able inasmuch as they bear sooner, require less space, 
and can be handily sprayed with one of the small

in getting together a limited quantity of fine trees 
which are offered this year in five superb varieties.
