APPLES, THE KING OF ALL FRUITS 
The question is frequently asked: Does an Apple orchard pay today? 
Like any other business: 
If the grower is a good business man he is making money on an Apple orchard. The grower of second 
class fruit is losing money and howling about over supply, and no market.

Gentlemen: 
It is a pleasure to recommend your nursery to 
anybody who wants fruit trees that are of good 
quality and true to name, also reasonable in 
price, this statement being based on my own 
experience with trees for a forty-acre orchard 
that was planted in 1920 and 1922. One row of 
the Jonathans averaged three bushels per tree in 
1926, and the other varieties have also started to 
bear nicely, particularly the Stayman and the 
Rome. 
Very truly yours, W. H. Matthews

mend them for honest dealing.
