Fruit Trees.
Are you planning to put out an
orchard this fall, if so, don't be de-
ceived and buy your trees from the
agent that comes to see you. Last
year some farmers were deceived
and gave from two to three times
as much for trees than they really
cost. One man told me personally
that he bought so many trees for
$500, when I could have saved him
$500 on the same trees. Where does
that extra $500 60, to the tree
agent of course. There is moth
ing that goes into my pocket when
I order for you. Strange it seems
to me that some people will let 9TH
ers beat them out of money when
they can prevent it. My salary
comes from the government, hence,
don't cost you a cent. Be sure you
call on your county agent when you
go to buy your fruit trees. Below,
I am quoting prices of the different
fruit tries.
Apple trees, IL 1-2c to 15c a piece.
Peach trees, 10c to 13c a piece.
Pear trees, zoe to 25c a piece
Cherry trees, zoe to 25c. a piece.
Plum trees, zoe to 25c a piece.
Pecan trees, SOC to 75c a piece.
1t is my intention to have a wheat
campaign about the third week of
August. At these meetings I hope
to get your orders for all seed and
fruit trees you expect to buy.

Especially in late fall-winter
