51 Years of Active Service 
1891-1942 = 
THIS IS THE 5lst YEAR OF THE ALPHA 
NURSERY. We have grown millions of 
trees and plants during this time and have 
gained much actual experience as to the 
GROWING, CARE AND HABITS OF 
EVERGREENS. TREES, ROSES and 
PLANTS suitable to our climate. 
This long experience gives assurance of 
better trees and plants, as most all our stock 
is grown in our fields here at ALPHA, 
Illinois. 
This nursery is now in the hands of the second and third 
generations of WIRTS growing quality nursery stock. 
Fair dealings, and honest values have built a reputation 
for this firm which stands the acid test of time. 
Defense Gardens will be called for this spring. There 
will be an urge to grow your own fruit and vegetables; 
everyone with a small plot of ground can raise part of the 
things they eat. Fruit is essential to the diet, so add a few 
fruit trees end some small fruits to your garden.
