THE BAKER NURSERIES.—aWith this catalogue is 
going into its 32nd year, 
having began in 1918 in a very small way, using about 
one acre of land. Today it has more than 1,000 acres 
of land, with over 200 devoted to the growing of all 
kinds of field grown trees and plants, growing annual- 
ly hundreds of thousands of fruit trees, fruit vines, 
strawberry plants, evergreens, shrubs, hedge plants, 
and shade trees. 
We are not making a specialty of growing a few 
sorts, such as apples, peaches, and cherries, but have a 
general nursery; thereby enabling the purchaser to se- 
lect* from -a complete assortment of fruit, deciduous, 
and evergreen trees, flowering shrubs, vines, roses, - 
bulbs, etc., that are of superior quality and at less 
cost, than the same stock secured from many other 
nurseries. 
We have been in the nursery business for many 
years, thereby attaining a complete knowledge of what 
varieties are giving the best satisfaction in our trade 
whom we _ have 
served through 
these many years, we want to thank you for the 
-business given us, and offer you in this catalogue 
greater values in nursery stock than we have of- 
fered before. Although we offer you the same prov- 
en quality of trees and plants, the prices have not 
been raised; notwithstanding the increase in cost 
of production and higher prices on all other com- 
modities. All of these trees and plants are State 
Inspected and attached to your order will be a copy 
of the inspection certificate from our State Plant 
Board. We are sure these. plants will please you 
in every way. 
We want you to go through this book, expecting 
to find values that you know are worth more mon- 
ey than we are asking, and that the difference in 
prices between ours and others, who are offering 
equal quality, is our gift to you. You, who have 
dealt with us from year to year, will be quick to 
see how much more you are being offered in this 
book, than the usual run of prices this season. 
We want you to buy now, all of the trees and 
plants you can profitably use, because we serious- 
ly doubt if good nursery stock can again be pur- 
chased at these low prices. Don’t wait another year 
to plant your home orchard or landscape your 
grounds, for no other dollar you can spend will add 
so much to the worth of your property, nor so 
much to your income.

stock transplants and thrives in all sections of our 
country. :
