After starting in business with ia
acres Of land. slight knowledge OF
Inc nursery business, and an ideal OF
his own about the possibilities that
could be realized in the work A.
Miller g2-year-young pioneer OF
Imatila county today has the satis-
faction that comes from making q
dream come true.
The monument OF his labors is the
Milton Nursey 60. 1t is the biggest
concern OF its kind In Eastern Oregon
and one OF the biggest nursery es-
adjustments in the Northwest. From
the original 10 acres, the land hold g.
ings IN the company, all in one COM
pact block Just east of Milton Free
water, has been added TO until today
there are 260 acres devoted TO the
business Of growing trees, plants and
shrubs and a few flowers.
OF course, this big concern does not
owe all OF its present success TO Mr.
Miller alone. Mrs. Miller has been a
partner in the business throughout all
these years, and at the age of as, she
is still hale and hearty and taking
pleasure in the success that has
crowned the venture that was started
almost a half century ago. Then
there are the Miller boys" three of
them who devote their time and ener-
gies to the business, and c. u. Hobbs,
the company's secretary, is a relative
by marriage.
Started ON Small Scale.
1t was back in 1873 that Mr.. Miller
started the present business. He had
19 acres Of land, some knowledge of
the rudiments of grating as practiced
in assisting Mother Nature TO improve
fruit trees, and a firm conviction that
there was future to the nursery bus
mess in the Northwest TO which he
had come from his former home in
Iowa
For many years, the production
work was carried on in the river bot
tom. small plots OF land being added to
the original 10-acre plot as the infant
industry waxed successful and made II
necessary to expand the area on which
trees had TO be grown. Then in 1895
S. A. Miller. the oldest of the three
boys. secured an interest in the bust
ness. and a little later G. w. and
c. p, Miller were added to the firm.
Mr.. Hobbs secured an interest fol-
lowing this, and in 1905. production
had rsaehsd such scale that it was
found advisable to incorporate for
$50,0po.
Have Big Prune Orchard.
OF the ESQ acres of the holdings OF
the company, so acres is devoted TO
prunes, and this orchard will come in
TO bearing next year. The orchard is
we'll cultivated and is absolutely free
OF weeds, and the trees look thrifty.
This year prunes have been a good
crop. and orchardists have realized
nice sums from their trees. Eastern
Oregon has an advantage in this prune
business that is shared by only two
other prune-growing districts in the
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1921-09-22

country. This advantage is found in
the fact that the prunes grown in the
Milton Freewater section can be ship
ped all over the world in their natural
state, When other sections whose
pruncs must be dried for shipment are
, having hard time in disposing OF
their crops, Milton Freewater orch-
ardists can sit back at ease and figure
out the years profits. Shipments are
sometimes made TO Liverpool, Copen-
hagen. France and other foreign
countries, and the undried fruit en-
joys a popularity that makes a mar
ket relatively sure every year,
Many kinds of shrubs arc grown on
the grounds, too. Plants, vines and
roses are u part of the production ac-
tivity OF the company. and the variety
sressive spirit OF the company In
cluded in this branch of the business
are small fruits and berries OF differ
ent kinds and varieties.
Land All Irrigated.
All of the land owned by the COM
pany is under irrigation. DURING the
early years when Mr. Miller was op-
Grating by himself, it was rot known
whether the so-called hill or wheat
land could be used to advantage in
the nursery game, An experiment was
made on a smaller plot, water was put
on, the soil, and it proved to be an
ideal place for the propagation of
quality young trees and shrubs.
There is some expense to irrigation
as il is practiced by the company, but
everything is in tip-top condition for
getting water just where it ought to
be Just when the grower wants 1t
there. There is one mile of concrete
pipe to convey the water and the
wooden fumes have tota' length of
several miles.
The nursery is one OF the biggest If
not the biggest, pay roll concerns in
the Milton -Freewater section. From
so to S5 men on an average are EN-
ployed all year. and in 1920. the labor
expenses We're $4,000. This does not
take into consideration the office help
and the salaries paid the executive
officers, so the total OF money paid
out every year which is distributed
over the community by the employed
force helps materially.
100000 Trees and Plants.
This season there has been about
100000 trees and plants on the place.
OF this number, about $4,000 are
budded trees and then there are 150.-
000 apple gratis. Other plants and
shrubs are grown in sufficient num-
bers to bring the total to the million
mark.
During blooming season, a sight of
the peony plots is one that is we'll
worth long trip to see. Three acres
are devoted to peonies, and cut flow
ers and bulbs are sold. The company
has a wide selection of varieties.
1t requires three years before a
budded apple tree is ready to be
planted in an orchard, according to
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1921-09-22

Mr., Hobbs An apple seed is plant
ed in the spring and il grows during
the summer Daring the second year,
this seeding is transplanted and latel

desired to produce is budded on the

be set out in its permanent home at
/ three years old is combination"
tree: it has the root system of the
Seeding, and the top is of the variety
of the bud,
The company produces quite lot
of the seedlings used in the buding
Iand grating, but some are shipped in
/ from foreign countries.
Have Wide Market.
During the long period of its career
the company has built up wide
market. The territory in which the
bulk of the business is done consists
of the states of Oregon, Washington
California, Idaho, Montana and Brit
ish Columbia. Many orders are filled
for other states in the union, and many
times customers from foreign coun-
tries send to Milton for their nursery
stock
There are at least so orchards in
Greece, too, that owe their origin to
stock that originally came from the
Milton nursery. Several years ago, a
Greek worked on the farm. and when
he decided to go home he carried with
Of rNf Il
Illegal to import fruit trees, so he
threw his stock overheard on coming
to land and then rescued them later
from the water. Trained in the bust
ness, he started n small nursery of his
own, and he has furnished the trees
for about 30 orchards in his native
country.
Trees are not the only product
around here, either" s. A. Miller,
manager of the company, and incl
dentally representative from Umatilla
county to the state legislature, said
We have one man whose boy Is
working for US. The father has been
here Is years, and this summer his
l0-year-old boy has done some light
work. So you see, we keep men in
our employ and then give jobs TO their
boys when they get old enough to
want q job"
Originate SpeciaitieS.
Nurserymen, in common with men
in every other line of business en-
deavor. arc constantly on the look
out for new varieties Of fruit that
show promise of being an improve
ment over existing varieties
The Milton Nursery Co has three
specialties in which it takes particu-
lar pride. The Perfection peach is a
variety that was discovered and in
troduced by them. It had its origin
on Wild Horse,

Besides nursery stock and orchard,
there is slight strip of ground on

This year about 80 acres of beans were
grown.

we can grow for the benefit of our
