Why We Make This Offer

Heretofore Stark Trees have been sold through
salesmen to whom we have paid commission for
sending your orders. We have now discontinued
selling through statesmen and dealing direct with
the planter in the irrigated valleys and orchard re-
eions of the west. Thus the commissions formerly
paid are swaziland given to you.
