Har<y Northern Climate ri 
Our Northern climate in the Greater. Michigan Fruit Belt is 
ideal for growing thrifty, hardy nursery stock. Our stock grow- | 
ing locations are near the lake which puts a damper on the ¥ 
winters, making the climate so that our nursery stock is prac- Eo 
tically dormant until late spring. Plants that are dormant so : | 
late in season have little foliage and carry well in transit. This WM. WESTHAUSER 
is one of the reasons why our plants can be shipped long dis- General Manager |

SEVERE SHORTAGE OF NURSERY STOCK Dun @ Bradtrest |

With the enormous shortage of nursery stock and the biggest shortage in its 
history, we again (as last year) will be forced to return thousands of orders 
for the lack of stock. In some of the large growing tracts in other states there 
is a complete crop failure. However, here the plants are well rooted and extra 
hardy as they had to go down to seek and find moisture. We advise you to 
order as soon as possible and have your stock reserved, also insuring you of 
delivery at the specified date.
