A. Johnson of Kansas City, Mo., broke down in health and retired from the grocery business with 
only $3,000.00 ‘‘to his name’’—at 65 years of age. Then he went to Oregon. 
He secured a little “patch” of rough land at a low price—and then cleared it himself, all alone. 
He wrote us about what kind of an orchard to “‘put out.” We told him what variety of fruit trees to 
plant—and how to care for them. He says that at that time he “didn’t know an apple tree from a 
peach.” 
Johnson’s orchard soon became as fine a 40-acre orchard as anyone can boast. His Gross Income 
from His 40-Acres of Stark Trees in One Year Alone Was $13,000.00, and he refused $40,000.00 
cash for it. 
At 86 years of age, he was sound in health and financially independent. We say that it was his grit 
that enabled him to do all this. He says, ‘“‘It was Stark Trees—and Stark Bro’s Orchard Advice.” 
He is one of the tens of thousands of fruit growers, farmers and home owners, who are praising— 
and planting—the great Stark Golden Delicious ‘‘World’s Record Young Bearer,’’ and Greatest 
Money-maker.
