When Spring Comes Again! 
and the bright sunshine and warm rains start the buds to swelling 
and everything in Nature feels the urge to begin another season’s growth, 
then every normal human being begins to feel the desire to plant some- 
thing and watch it develop as the season advances. During the war 
years many people had their first experience in growing vegetables and had 
the joy of feeling that they were responsible for giving those tiny seeds the 
opportunity to develop into those food crops that were so sorely needed. 
There has been a letup in many lines of activity but the interest 
in planting fruit trees, berry plants, shrubs and evergreens has continued 
unabated. Commercial fruit planting has been almost at a standstill 
on account of lack of help but the home growers have endeavored to fill 
the gap by producing some of their own fruit. ; 
What We Have to Offer to Home-owners 
First—A good selection of all the old reliable varieties of shrubs, 
trees, evergreens, fruit trees and bushes, and greenhouse plants, and the 
best of the new varieties. 
Second—Prices that are as low as those of any nursery and only 
about one-half as high as the prices of nurseries employing salesmen to 
call on you. We are able to do this by sending out a catalog that is not 
too expensive, by using the cash and carry method which cuts out the 
shipping costs and does away with poor accounts, by funishing a landscape 
service for our customers in nearby communities so we can deal directly 
with them and do not hire high-priced men to call on them. 
Third—Quality. Our trees and plants are as good as can be pro- 
duced. A nurseryman can ship poor stock to a distant customer and 
get by with it once—but when his products are placed in his customers 
hands at the nursery or delivered to their home in his truck, he has just 
got to. have good stock. } 
Fourth—You have the privilege, and are urged, to come to our 
nursery and select the stock you want and ask us all the questions you 
wish regarding the care of the stock. 
Fifth—Our landscape service is free to all prospective customers. 
You are under no obligations in asking us to go to your home and give 
you advice about your plantings, and if necessary we will prepare a com- 
plete landscape plan for you. On account of shortage of help we cannot 
furnish much of this service after early April, so let us hear from you now 
if you are interested in making some plantings at your home this spring. 

Picture on front page was taken by Fred Cutting, 
January 1936, near Monterey, California. Just beyond the 
Pine tree, and many feet below, lies the Pacific Ocean. As 
Leslie Burroughs wrote: 1 
“Where the tall Pine invites 
The wanderer to mount the craggy rise; 
And far below the restless ocean lies, 
Reflecting sunny days and starlit nights.”
