Everyone Should Plant An Orchard 
Every land owner should plant at least a small orchard. The blossoms alone 
would more than repay for the trouble, even the shade it might afford. The 
landscape effect it gives to the homestead is invaluable, as no real homestead 
could be complete in appointment without its orchard; it’s the one dear spot in 
the memory of everyone reared on the farm that has its orchards. Still some 
people neglect such an important feature in laying out their home grounds, and 
with all these benefits you may have fruit fresh from the tree at your pleasure 
with a flavor that cannot be had in ones from a distant market. Could there 
be greater inducements for planting an orchard? 
DASS’ TIME-TRIED APPLES

an orchard of Apples into bearing 
has been materially reduced by us- 
ing peach and other fillers in the 
orchard. The Apples are planted 
from 33 to 40 feet apart and the 
fillers between. These fillers to be 
removed in from 10 to 15 years.

not too dry will raise Apples, and 
the varieties we list are time-tried
