A SHORT STORY ABOUT OUR FRUIT TREES 
First: They will grow and live longer, 
than any other Fruit Trees money can buy. 
Second: 
stand severe cold and dry climate conditions 
better 
It is made possible to grow trees of such hardiness and *Séupendous size only by our propa- 
gation system. Our one- and two-year-old Trees are larger and better proportioned than any Fruit Trees 
produced in the Northwest. 
We have never found a sign of root knot or Crown Gall in our Fruit Trees. We 
have a typical system of our own in producing these hardier high bearing and high vitality Fruit Trees.
