Gentlemen: 
We are pleased to enclose herein a copy of our REVISED PRICE 
LIST FOR FALL 1953 DELIVERY. 
As you no doubt know, there are many wholesale price lists 
mailed from the McMinnville and Warren County area. The fact 
you may not know is that much of the stock in a majority of 
these lists is collected stock and not nursery grown and is 
not listed as collected stock. This being the case, prices 
on many varieties of stock vary considerably on the same grade, 
Naturally, one can go out in the forests and mountains and "Py]1" 
d plants cheaper than we nurserymen can plant, cultivate, 
wild 
fertilize and dig nursery grown plants. 
legitimate nurserymen in McMinnville and Warren County are, 
through the’ cooperation of our able new state entomologist, 
H, L. Bruer, attempting to correct this dreadful situation 
which is detrimental to the nursery industry. However, it will 
take much time before an effective control of this unethical 
practice can be perfected, 
We, the oldest nursery in this area, wish to assure you that 
all items listed in this enclosed price list are nursery grown 
and are graded in accordance with the Horticultural Grading ; 
Standards as adopted and prescribed by the American Association 
of Nurserymen. | 
Buy from us and be assured of receiving first class nursery 
grown stock which will delight your customers, 
Very truly yours, 
J. R. Boyd, President 
John T. Boyd, Vice-President 
H, By Stubblefield, Supt. 
P, S. Incidentally, should you be interested in TuPohaa ine 
native collected stock, which cannot be secured in nursery 
grown material, write us and we shall be most happy to offer 
attractive quotations. The difference being—our collected ° 
stock will be quoted as coljected stock at collected stock 
DFAICES« ons | 
WE EXERCISE THE GREATEST CARE TO KEEP OUR VARIETIES TRUE TO NAME AND HOLD OURSELVES IN READINESS AT ALL TIMES TO REPLACE ON PROPER PROOF, ALL STOCK THAT 
MAY PROVE OTHERWISE OR REFUND THE AMOUNT PAID. BUT IT IS MUTUALLY AGREED BETWEEN THE PURCHASER AND OURSELVE Ss 
THAT WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY AMOUNT GREATER THAN THE ORIGINAL PRICE.
