Pointers
To TREE
BUYERS
"Alien Labor"

When buying trees. did you
ever stop to consider whether
the trees YOU were getting were
grown with allen labor" or
Americans? Enyen labor usual
ly accompanies low priced trees.
Have you been encouraging the
employment OF foreign labor or
have you stopped 10 consider
the question from this angle.
In q great many instances,
Orenco trees. grown by white
labor, have TO compete with
cheaper trees grown by alien
labor. This Is q fact you prob
ably did not know. but next
time you are buying trees,
would II not DO quite proper to
ascertain some facts on this
point. II you are u good Amer
lean, believing in American
Ideals. no doubt you will give
preference to the nursery which
employs American labor.
In this connection Is may In
terest You to know that q great
many OF the men connected
with our company have been
engaged In tho nursery pro-
fession for the past twenty to
twenty-five years, and prac-
tI.' tlcally all tho time yyth our
company. "
When you procure trees that
have been reared under the ex-
perienced care and knowledge
OF such men you are much
more sure Of getting the very
best and Just what you order,
than II you purchase from
less well conducted or experl-
ence operated concern.
When you buy your trees
from tho Oregon Nursery Com
pany, Orenco, oregon, you have
the assurance that your trees
have been produced by Amerl-
can labor OF q high order, and
that every safeguard to insure
their healthiness. reliability
and satisfaction to you have
been employed.
