KELLY’S Selected aud Tuspected APPLES 
Whether you have room for only a few trees in your back 
yard, 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 propagated 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.
