TREE CROPS 
An amazing book just out 
400 pages, 145 photos, several charts 
A guide to “riches without plowing’ by the 
mature mind of Dr. J. Russell Smith. In the 
welter of junk coming off the press to entertain 
the unhappy and “‘fearful”’ it’s refreshing indeed 
to read the mature literature on how to re-clothe 
the earth—how to reclaim our eroding soil and 
human spirit—what to do to stop the rot of our 
democracy. 
Do it while you ‘“‘make money’’—have fun— 
enjoy your self growing nuts and tree crops— 
growing new selections and recording the data- 
breeding new and better varieties. But the 
most interesting feature is—how you can make 
more money on your steep slopes; rocky knolls— 
hill or mountain farm with tree crops. Other 
than present commercial fruits. 
It has one very distressing feature—distressing 
to “modern thinking’. Dr. Smith with great 
clarity and mature judgment points out you 
must do it yourself, not depend on experiment 
stations or government subsidy. 
408 pages cataloguing the success of nuts and 
tree crops in the old world with a start of it in 
America. 
He charts our America’s #1 Tree Crop Farm 
here at Downingtown as a guide to those who 
wish to follow. 
He gives you 145 pictures to look at if you can’t 
read. Just $6.00 Postpaid cheaper than any 
college course offered—more valuable.
