In this, our 34th year in the nursery 
business, we are happy to again offer our 
customers a most complete selection of 
nursery stock. Because of shortage of 
labor and an unusually dry growing season, 
it has not been easy to do this. It does 
mean that the general supply is smaller 
even than last year and for this reason we 
hope that all of you will send your orders 
as early as you can so that we can reserve 
your stock while we have it. 
The small fruit and fruit trees you plant 
now will bring you fine, healthful crops of 
fruit for years to come. The small original 
cost is repaid many times over with the 
first picking. When grown for. sale, all 
fruit has always made money, but profits 
were never greater than right now. Even 
a small space planted to strawberries, rasp- 
berries, blackberries and Boysenberries— 
asparagus and rhubarb, too—will make hand- 
some cash returns and at the same time’ pro 
vide plenty for home use. : 
As always, you can depend on Rokely high 
quality, first class, hardy Michigan plants and 
trees. They are backed by our guarantee and 
our years of successful experience in growing 
and shipping nursery stock. Every item is 
inspected by Michigan State inspectors and a 
copy of our certificate attached to every ship- 
ment. Write us your questions, we will gladly 
be of help. Every order is appreciated and 
will be given the experienced care that has 
always merited your confidence in us.
