Zilke’s Whole Root Fruit Trees | 
We have the following well known varieties, which have proven themselves unex- 
celled for home, as well as the market use. Time is money, don’t waste it by planting 
small spindling, poorly rooted trees commonly known as whisps. Even if they grow 
(which is doubtful) it will take them a long time to come into bearing. Our stock starts 
growing quickly after planting, because you get all of the roots, life and vigor. These 
trees have an abundance of heavy, fibrous roots that quickly take hold in their new 
growing place. All our trees are grown on rich, well drained, upland soil that is 
specially prepared and fertilized to encourage deep, heavy, fibrous root growth. Such 
trees are free from root diseases. Hardy North- Qp 
ern Grown fruit trees are recognized through- 
out the country as the safe and sure kind to 
plant. Our prices are less than half the usual 
prices asked by agents, because we sell direct 
from Nursery to you.
