STARK BRO’S FRUIT TREES! 
Stark Trees Grow Faster and Bear Younger 
Your Stark Fruit Trees often bear within 2 to 3 years! This means 
you get your fruit quicker than you perhaps ever thought possible. 
Stark Fruit Trees are of prime, carefully selected quality—inspected 
FIVE times before shipping. Strong, hardy super root systems help 
your Stark Trees off to a flying start. They grow rapidly—and, because 
of this rapid, healthy development, bear exceptionally young. As Walter 
“T am really proud of our Stark Peach 
Trees. They have only been in the ground for 1 year and they are just 
N. Frandsen of Texas writes, 
loaded with peaches.” 
Stark Orchards and Ornamen- 
tals Increase Property Values 
Beautiful Shade Trees, Flowering 
Shrubs, Roses and other Stark Orna- 
mentals beautify your home and make it 
far more valuable in the eyes of prospec- 
tive buyers. Even a moderate amount of 
our skillful landscaping can add hun- 
dreds of dollars to your property value. 
And what a difference Stark Fruit 
Trees make! Read what O. R. Moore of 
Illinois says: “I have 5 half-acre lots 
eleven miles from Chicago. Mr. Brown, 
who is’ Vice-President of one of the 
largest real estate firms in the city, was 
offered $1200.00 MORE for one of his 
half-acre lots simply because his 4 year 
trees were loaded with fruit.”’ 
Lester Chambers of Ohio writes that he har- 
vested a $7,000.00 apple crop from 15 acres of 
land that produced 30 bushels of corn per acre.

Stark Trees Often Pay for Themselves With First Crop 
The amount you pay for your Stark Super-Quality Fruit Trees will cer- 
tainly be one of the best investments of your entire lifetime. Whether you 
sell your fruit for profit or keep it to eat fresh, or to use for your table, 
or for freezing and preserving—your Stark Fruit Trees will pay for them- 
selves with the first crop. Then year after year you may enjoy wonderful 
Stark World’s Champion Quality Fruit at almost no cost. You’ll have 
plenty of Apples—the big, extra-tasty kind—Peaches, Pears, Plums, 
Cherries, Apricots, Grapes, Berries! Mrs. Lynn McDonald reports pick- 
ing $21.45 worth of Stark Golden Delicious from 3-year tree!

Dear Sirs: 
Kindly send enclosed order of trees and vines. 
When the Stark Salesman first showed us the catalog, Mrs. 
Miller and I agreed that it all looked wonderful, but we had 
an idea that it was mainly for advertisement and somewhat 
exaggerated. However, because of the recommendation our 
friends and neighbors gave us we ordered Stark Trees. The 
trees arrived and were planted Spring before last, and have 
done well. 
Last summer, to our happy surprise, we didn’t have to buy 
a bushel of peaches (which brought $5.00)—we picked 
plenty from our young 2-year-old trees to eat and can. 
What was more surprising we also tasted the Elephant Heart 
Plums (from our tree)—one Golden Delicious apple tree bore 
3 apples, one of which hung low on the branches and was 
picked early by the baby. The other two matured and gave 
us a real treat. 
Thus, we are convinced that what you say about having 
quick bearing trees is true. We are very happy about our 
small home orchard. Respectfully,

Stark Trees Resist Cold 
Weather and Worst Drought 
Stark Fruit Trees grow and prosper 
where others fail and die! Time after 
time, folks have written Stark Bro’s tell- 
ing of exceptionally bitter Winters—or 
devastating dry conditions—with little or 
no effect on their Stark Fruit Trees. This 
wonderful, country-wide record of hardi- 
ness is the direct result of Stark research 
and the heavy, full-size root system, which 
is practically a trade-mark of every Stark 
Fruit Tree, Shrub and Plant. They are 
hardy, grow well, bear and bloom abund- 
antly in any climate and soil condition. 
Mary Metz of Maine writes, ‘‘Trees I got 
from you all grew through worst drought 
we ever had.” 
W. J. Ahrens of Wisc. writes “‘Here in Wisc. we 
have 20 to 30 below zero weather. Our Stark Gold- 
en Delicious started to bear at 4 years—never 
missed a crop.
