Healthy Trees 
Whether you have room for only a few trees in your 
backyard, or plan to plant a large orchard . . . you'll 
get best results with Kelly’s Apples. We say this with 
confidence, because our trees are grown under the 
most exacting conditions for your protection ! 
Starting with a whole root seedling our trees are prop- 
agated by the budding method . the best and most 
expensive way. Each year we go direct to commercial 
bearing orchards to cut our bud wood from trees that 
show best color and bearing qualities. This is what 
gives Kelly’s Trees the good foundation that assures 
you of permanent, healthy growth, disease-free trees, 
and heavy crops year after year. 


For home orchard or com- 
mercial use this is the ideal
