WHOLE-ROOT PROCESS—(First from the left.) Note the WHOLE-ROOT SYSTEM and the perfect fitting 
and our new electrically antiseptic-treated wrapping (precluding water from entering the splice and thereby 
preventing decay), essential to productive and long-lived trees. 
PIECE-ROOT PROCESS—(Second from the left.) SIX grafts made from ONE root, producing trees of 
one-sixth the vitality retained in the WHOLE-ROOT PROCESS. Also note the wrapping practiced in making 
the inferior piece-root gratts. 
ILL-MADE GRAFTS—(Third and fourth from the left.) By inexperienced workmen. Note the misfits; 
small scions used on large roots, and rough workmanship; never a union of long duration. Results are weak- 
lings, short lived, and nonproductive. 
PERFECT-FITTING GRAFT—(Last on the right.) Hand graited by expert workmen at the proper point 
where the wood and root cells blend into each other forming a perfect union (visible only on close exam- 
ination). Trees that grow strong and last long under the strain of heavy production at an early age.

SUPER-BEARING, WHOLE-ROOT PROCESS TREES, ONE 2COT-ONE TREE. SUCCESS. 
SHY-BEARING, INFERIOR PIECE-ROOT TREES, ONE ROOT-SIX TREES. FAILURE. 
The above two lines, eleven words and fifty-four letters each, tell the whole story. There is no other way 
to express the difference more forcefully between ihe two systems, and still the two lines look very much 
alike; same number of words and letters. Just so in QUALITY trees and the inferior kind; they look very 
similar, but when the day of test arrives (bearing age), there is no comparison. You will discover to your 
sorrowful and financial disappointment that the INFERIOR PIECE ROOT, ONE ROOT-SIX TREES are going 
out, instead of coming into bearing as the WHOLE-ROOT PROCESS, ONE ROOT-ONE TREE trees are an- 
nually producing quantity and quality fruit. There is nothing more expensive than a cheap piece-root tree. 
Plant the best and get off the cheapest. 
In the selection of Nursery Stock, exercise the utmost precaution in choosing the best. What is the real 
worth of a fruit tree—the price paid for it, or what it will produce? It is the results that fix the true value, not 
the price. GOLDEN EAGLE NURSERY NEVER SACRIFICES QUALITY in favor of lower prices. QUALITY 
HAS NO TSUBSTITUTE:
