WORKING UN It DWINDLE. A few da ye ago fifty German-Amer iean farmers arrived at Coaldale sta tion. near Tonopah, expecting to find an Eden of green grass, streams and flowers, which had been described to them by agents of an alleged swindle in San Erancisco. Instead of the paradise which had been pictured, they found a desolate waste of mal apai rock, Joshua trees and sand. Representatives of the company were to have met them at the station, but no one appeared, and they walked disconsolately over the sands to Blair Junction. They said they had paid agents of the concern more than 12, 006 as the first installment of the ; purchase price of their respective farms. Each paid 150 for his share of the lands. It was not until foe procession straggled into Blair and made inquiries of natives that their illusions were entirely banished. Since the story has circulated here there has been curiosity expressed as to whether the Peales were in the new deal.

WHICH WILL YOU PLANT? Cheap trees, grown by unskilled nurserymen, or will you plant Stark Trees, the best trees that modern nursery science can produce and insure yourself a highly productive and profitable orchard? “Stark Trees are the Best Trees Grown” It the unanimous opinion of orchardists in all part* of the country—the thousand* of letters in our file* prove it. This year our stock is better than ever. Never before in our history of K4 years have we put in our packing houses such fine trees as have come to us this fall from our nine branch plants. These trees are absolutely dependable, quality the very finest: in fact, we challenge comparison and competition. Stark Trees have been proven and tested for many years by orchardists in all parts of the West and Southwest and our trade in that wondrous section is increasing each season.

Urban, Stonewall Co., Texas. lYwwp Y/Vf>s« ' I'fOOS The experience of Ihe most successful orchardists everywhere, especially in the west, X. vul X FvVvl have proven lhat one-year trees are best because they are more adaptable, health icr, make quicker and stronger growth, come into bearing younger and are the most prolific producers.
