Dear Friend: 
Just a word to you concerning our plants and 
ourselves. 
We have lived on this farm for 25 years. Dur- 
ing that time. our living has been made mostly 
from growing strawberries and raspberries for fruit 
and plants. 
What is said in this catalogue is backed by 
Our Own personal experiences. 
You will notice our prices are far cheaper than 
other nurseries. This is made possible by growing 
strawberries and raspberries only, here at our 
Nursery. 
We also have no fancy catalogs and do all 
our own correspondence and clerical work. 
We have tried most all types of berries under 
all conditions; you will notice that not all types 
of berries are listed in our catalogue. The reason 
is not all meet our approval. The ones here listed 
are what we have grown for our own fruit pro- 
duction and so approve them for you. There are 
many other kinds that have their good qualifica- 
tions, but do not meet our standards. 
Plants are offered for sale only in the Spring 
starting in late March and ending about May 15. 
Orders after that do not always turn out well. 
Fall planting is not recommended at all. It just 
does not work satisfactorily. 
Our plants are all dug in the spring as needed. 
Packing and shipping is all personally super- 
vised, so are able to guarantee you good plants 
on arrival. 
No. C.O.D. orders are accepted, 1/3 down is 
required on orders. Balance 10 days before ship- 
ment, or full amount with order. You may state 
the date for your shipment and we will do our 
best to fill it on time. Remember, early orders are 
taken care of on time specified. 
Complete planting and growing instructions are 
sent with each order. 
Thank you much,
