“/o Our friends . . . . 
It is with pleasure that we offer our new catalog. We hope that it will be 
well recetved by each of you old friends. It is also our hope that to you who 
are not yet acquainted with our dependable stock this little book may be a 
colorful introduction to serve in the selection of your nursery requirements. 
Generally, prices are no higher. Some are lowered appreciably, but due 
to continued higher cost of labor and materials, we were unable to make a 
percentage reduction across the board as we should like to do. A study of 
this list will bring to light some really outstanding values, and we suggest 
that you read it carefully with this in mind. 
This catalog carries only a partial list of our trees and plants, and we 
shall appreciate inquiries about any additional requirements. We shall be 
glad to help you m working out your planting problems in any way possible. 
Our years of experience and our force of trained workers are at your service. 
It is our privilege to thank thousands of satisfied customers for past pa- 
tronage. We sincerely appreciate your business. Now let us all confidently set 
our home grounds and orchards in order for the 1948-49 season. That means 
get in touch with us, and soon. 
Sincerely, 
AV fhe ayg
