A customer reports rabbits may be kept off apple trees or 
anything by spraying with water in which Garlic has been crushed. 
We hope so. 
Gopher poisoned oats placed in rabbit runs will kill rabbits 
if the rabbits eat them, or poison small poplar branches using the 
powder form of gopher poison. Poplar branches are the safest 
to use. 
Painting fruit trees with oil, old crank case oil, or blood of 
slaughtered animals will keep off rabbits for several months. 
~ We want you to be satisfied with our trees. We have quite a 
few letters, received lately, expressing satisfaction with stock 
received from us, and not one on the other line. If anything is not 
satisfactory tell us and we will make it right. And if our stock is 
satisfactory tell everybody else. Thank you.

It pays better to grow fruits, especially Starlight or Chief 
raspberries, than to grow vegetables, and the fruit trees will not 
hinder the growing of vegetables the first year, and only a little 
the next. Hardiness is fundamental. Yielding power is next. If 
not able to decide, say how many and leave choice of varieties to 
me, giving location.
