Harrisons' are the largest com- mercial Peach orchardists in the East, and we will plant additional Peach orchards this spring. FRUIT GROWERS—look at fruit trees in other nurseries, then come to Berlin and see the superior quality of Harrisons' true-to-name varieties at at- trcx:tive prices. See the fruit trees growing in the nurseries—know what you buy. For best results, plant dependable Harrison-grown trees. Younger Bearing Do you want your trees to come into bearing at an early age? It is a recognized fact that trees propa- gated direct from bearing trees will commence to fruit at an earlier age than trees that are propa- gated from non-bearing scions. Harrison-Grown Fruit Trees, due to the fact they are propagated from bearing trees, will produce profit-paying crops in the shortest possible time. Grown on the "Brink" of the Atlantic Our favorable climatic conditions, being located only eight miles from the Atlantic Ocean, with our rich soils of various types, coupled with the latest scientific and practical methods, as well as an unusually large number of experienced nurserymen, with ample facilities, enables Har- risons' to grow America's foremost, finest and best quality, true-to-name fruit trees, with superior merits and extra heavy annual bearing habits, which we guarantee, with proper care, will produce bump- er crops in any fruit-growing section of the United States. Finest Strains Harrisons' "bud selection" of pro- pagating direct from bearing trees of known sturdy ancestry, superior strains, bearing the highest coloring of fruit, with extra heavy bearing habits, has made the greatest con- tribution in directing and fixing the characteristics of the yield; of per- fecting color; increasing the size of the fruit and the volume, as well as regularity of the crop. True-tO-Name in addition to carefully selecting the propagating wood from bearing trees of superior strains we have also employed the services of Dr. W. H. Upshall, of Vineland, Ontario, Canada Ex- perimental Station, to inspect our Peach trees in the nursery rows and he has pronounced our trees true- to-name. This is just another precaution in order to check up on any possible errors so that we can be absolutely sure that our varieties will reproduce true when planted in your orchards. The Reasons Back of Harrisons' Superior Stock A—Our organization hos over 56 years experience. B—Every step in growing under the personal super- vision of the Harrison brothers. C—One hundred thousand trees in our own orchards from which our propogating plants are selected. D—Use of modern methods for planting, cultivoting and digging. E—Over 5000 acres of various types of soil. F—Ideal soil and climatic conditions. horticulturists Little Peach Orchords make more profit thon Big Farms G—Co-operation with leading experimental stations all over the world. and PLANT PEACHES FOR BIG CASH PROFITS Your fruit fortune is in your hands. Don't gamble— buy Harrisons' true-to-name super selected "budded" trees, backed by three generations of proctical ex- perience.
