Excerpt from Fruit Trees and Plants, Nut Trees, Shade Trees, Evergreens, Shrubs, Roses One of the constant aims of the J. Van Lindley Nursery Company is to hold fast to the deservedly worthy trees and plants, while accepting those new introductions that can be depended on to be worth while. This involves a pretty difficult problem - it means keeping out of the rut of clinging to the older varieties without giving the new ones a trial. On the other hand, it makes it necessary to recommend these more recent introductions with care never, in any case, without proving them by trial and comparison to be worthy of our patrons' confidence. Though a hard task, we believe we are equal to it; we are sure a glance over the following pages will bear us out. Here will be found in the various departments, numerous old reliable standards, just as many as we have found to be really valuable and adapted to our climate. Here, too, you will see many of the new introductions - and you may rest assured, in every case, that we know these to be all right. We have a favorable soil and climate, and superior facilities in the way of skilled workers and modern equipment, to produce high-grade plants and trees. Experienced growers have long ago learned that it pays to buy for qual ity, even when necessary to pay a little more for it than to accept inferior stock; and we have hundreds of regular customers on our books - farmers and fruit growers in high standing in their communities - who will gladly testify to the excellence of the stock we supply. In most cases, Lindley trees and plants cost practically the same as stock of inferior or uncertain quality; but even when it costs more, ours is invariably worth far more than the difference, because of the strong, vigorous growth it makes and because of What it produces, which is the thing that counts. Lindley trees are of known pedigree and are well-grown - have plenty of good roots; they make a sturdy growth from the first season. Our fruit trees bear profitable crops and our ornamentals commence early to make an effective display. There are many other features that go to make Lindley trees and plants especially desirable, but this will help to explain Why ours are espe cially worth while - and abundantly worth what we ask for them.
