YOU Benefit 
By These Advantages! 
©PACKING HOUSE WITH REFRIGERATION is your assurance of plants arriving in 
A-1 condition as all of our nursery stock is fresh dug—precooled in our spacious cooler 
—then shipped direct to you. 
@ UP-TO-THE-MINUTE FARM EQUIPMENT assures you of getting only the finest, 
fully matured plants, as our modern farm equipment enables us to get our nursery stock 
in the soil in proper planting season, giving it a lengthy growing season, in which to 
mature fully. 
eWITH OUR LARGE SCALE IRRIGATION SYSTEM we are (even in drought sea- 
sons), always able to produce healthy, extra heavy rooted, quality stock for you. 
@CROP ROTATION. Healthy, sturdy, northern grown nursery stock is the result of 
our years ahead plan with definite crop rotation, and in conjunction with this we main- 
tain a large herd of steers to produce the highest fertility, which in turn goes directly 
into the plants you receive from the Westhauser Nurseries. 
@HARDY NORTHERN CLIMATE. Our northern climate in the great Michigan Fruit 
Belt is ideal for growing thrifty, hardy nursery stock, being located so near Lake 
Michigan, which puts a damper on our winters, making the climate such that our 
nursery stock is practically dormant until late in spring. Bear in mind, Mr. Fruit 
Grower, plants that are dormant so late in the season have little foliage and carry well 
in transit, that is one of the reasons why our plants can be shipped long distances with 
the best of results. 
@GET THE BEST AT NO EXTRA COST. In spite of rising prices, with the modern 
facilities mentioned above, we are able to keep our costs at a bare minimum. We pass 
this savings on to you.
