MILTON NURSERY COMPANY, MILTON, OREGON 
Seventy Years 
Your Assurance of Satisfactory Service 
The Milton Nursery Co. was established at the present 
location by A. Miller in 1878, and since then has been 
continuously owned and managed by members of the Mil- 
ler family. It has the distinction of being one of the oldest — 
and largest nurseries in the Pacific Northwest with con- 
tinuous ownership by one family at the same location. 
Under the experienced management of the two remain- 
ing sons, George W. in charge of production, and C. Bert 
supervisor of sales and distribution, with C. D. Hobbs, an 
associate since 1904, the firm continues to operate over 
400 acres devoted exclusively to the growing of quality 
nursery stock. Several million trees and plants are shipped 
annually to all of the United States and various foreign 
countries.

as to life, description, quality or productiveness or any 
other matter pertaining to any nursery stock, seeds, plants

Claims. On the arrival of your shipment, examine it 
carefully, and if there is any apparent damage, call it to 
the attention of the transportation agent, have him make 
a notation on the shipping bill and notify us immediately. 
Substitutions. We reserve the right, in case we are out 
of any variety ordered, to substitute another one of equal 
merit, when it can be done (always labeling each substi-

specifies on the order “no substitutions,” in which case we 
will fill the order as completely as possible and refund 
balance of the purchase. 
Planting Instructions are sent with each shipment of 
our nursery stock, telling you just how to plant, prune and

glad to send if you will write us.

Rule. Divide 43,560 (the number of square feet in an 
acre) by the number of square feet for each plant. The 
result is the number required for an acre. Example: Trees 
planted 20 feet apart each way equals 400 square feet; 
43,560 divided by 400 equals number of trees per acre. 
lf trees are planted on the Triangular system, 15 per 
cent more than for the Square system will be required.
