GENERAL INFORMATION 
Our Stock is produced at our Helmer, Kelley, Plainsburg 
and La Branza, growing grounds in Merced County, under our 
personal supervision. In choosing land on which to grow our 
stock, we select a sandy loam. This type of soil, combined with 
the thorough manner in which we care for our nursery, produces 
a strong, well-hardened tree, with an ideal root system. 
OUR BUDS are selected personally from the heaviest produc- 
ing trees in the best orchards of the section. 
OUR THIRTY EIGHT YEARS EXPERIENCE in the nursery 
business enables us to give you expert’ advice on planting and 
care of trees and vines. And please remember that when we 
give you advice, it is what we conscientiously believe and not 
in any way influenced by what we have to sell. 
SMALL ORDERS are given the same consideration that 
large orders receive. This is evidenced in the fact that we make 
a specialty of Family Orchards.

Inspection is for your protection and purchasers should cooper- 
ate. to the fullest with the inspector. Our stock is free from dis- 
ease and pests and may be shipped anywhere. We guarantee 
it to pass inspection, and stand by any loss occasioned by its 
failure to do so. 
QUANTITY RATES: The total number of trees or vines or- 
dered determine which quantity rate applies. For example, if 
25 Almond and 25 Peach trees are ordered, you are entitled to 
the “50 rate on both. Walnuts and Citrus are not included 
in this grouping. 
GRADING: All trees are graded by caliper, rather than by 
height. Thus when planted out and cut back they are of uniform 
size and more satisfactory to the planter. The sizes given in 
this list represent the approximate height in feet, and correspond 
to the following caliper measurements taken two inches above 
the bud.
