ANDREWS PLANTS NATIONALLY KNOWN 
They are inspected several times each season by the State -Nursery 
Inspector and have been pronounced “mosaic-free’’ and in excellent 
condition. No effort has been spared to produce No. 1 plants. Our 
climate and soil are ideal for developing vigor and good roots. The 
special machine used in digging these plants makes possible the excel- 
lent root system of our plants. Success with Raspberries, as with any- 
thing else, depends on getting started on~a sure foundation—that is, 
with clean, strong, vigorous, disease-free plants.

ANDREWS RASPBERRY PLANTS 
ARE A SAFE INVESTMENT 
You have good reason to select them and they will bear out your 
judgment. Briefly it is just this: 
1. You get plants grown by specialists. Beginning with the selec- 
tion of the field on which to produce the plants and continuing 
through to the final packing out of the finished product, every oper- 
ation has special care and attention. 
2. All plants are carefully inspected during the growing season— 
twice by our trained men, and twice by the State Nursery Inspection 
staff. These plants carry the State Certificate of double inspection. No 
fruiting canes are allowed in our fields—our method sacrifices fruit that 
we might otherwise harvest, but it produces better plants and it avoids 
diseases and pests that harbor in fruiting fields, infect the young canes 
and so are transmitted into the new plantation. 
3. These plants are grown on clean, fertile land. This is essential to 
the production of the best plants. Another factor is that we have the 
right kind of climate and soil to produce strong, well-matured stock. 
4. The fields are big and the rows are long. They are planted with 
a power machine—cultivated and dug with a power machine. A special 
digging device was designed to lift the plants without breakage or injury 
to the roots. This management and handling insures, at low cost, ex- 
cellent plants with root system impossible in “spade dug” plants from 
“fence corner” patches. 
HEALTHY STOCK ESSENTIAL 
The best planting stock obtainable is the cheapest. Sucker plants 
dug from a fruiting patch are dear at any price. Almost invariably they 
carry some pest or disease which infects the new planting and results 
in disappointment. The very best grade of clean, healthy, disease-free 
planting stock is available at a reasonable price. It is folly to start with 
the handicap of a questionable foundation stock.

fields. The thrift, vigor and freedom from disease of our plants has de- 
veloped a market from the Rockies to the Atlantic. Between two and three 
million Raspberry plants were grown this year.
