ASkOV NURSERY

Last year | pulled and burned
about one third of my nursery
stock because my good neighbors
and friends bought their supply
from nursery agents. If condi-
tons don't improve this year |
will most likely burn most of
what ! have left as labor and
soil are too valuable to spend
on a crop don't know how to
sell. and have little hope that |
can learn to sell. | have some
good plants in suitable varieties
for this soil and climate both in
fruit. flower. windbreak and
evergreens and shall be pleased
to book your orders soon.
