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. Our stock starts growing quickly after 
planting, because you get all of the roots, life and vigor. These trees have an abun- 
dance 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 Northern Grown fruit trees are recognized throughout 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.
