WIGHT’S QUALITY 
's always right 
E ARE all deeply grateful that our global war has ended. But most of the problems 
caused by the war are still with us. Farm supplies and machinery are next to 1m- 
possible to get, and labor is scarcer than ever. So again this year, along with your 
Wight-grown trees you will probably get a generous portion of excuses for our comparatively 
slow service, of apologies for our short supply of trees and shrubs. 
The production of nursery stock is essentially a long-time manufacturing process. The 
essential ingredients are soil, fertilizer, labor, skill, and time. Shortage of labor three years 
ago shows up in a shortage of nursery stock to sell now. 
Pecan nursery stock is the most important item on which we are critically short. Some 
varieties were sold out between the time of preparation of the copy for this catalogue and 
the submission of first proof by the printer. The description of these varieties has been left 
in the book, and “‘sold out” printed after it. All varieties of pecans listed this year will be 
available next year in all grades, from 2 feet to 10 feet. 
Fruit trees are also in short supply. Better place your order for these and any other 
nursery stock you need—and place it now. 
You, our customers, have been most patient and understanding of the difficulties under 
which we have been trying to serve you. For that we are truly grateful. With our limited 
facilities we will continue to serve you in the best possible manner. We sincerely hope and 
believe that next season we will again have a wide selection of trees and shrubs for the South- 
land, and will again give you that excellent service which you have come to expect from 
Wight Nurseries. 
Sincerely yours,
