A SPLENDID INDUCEMENT.
~~~~~
Fruit Tree Firm Congratulates League
on Its Movement.

     President Allen of the Marlin business league has received a letter from a prominent and extensive wholesale fruit tree firm in which they say, in part: "We have been reliably informed that your league has a plan on foot to buy a car loud of peach trees to resell to your farmers for the purpose of encouraging the industry.  We desire first to congratulate you in this wonderful and great undertaking, and must say that it is the best inducement in this line we ever heard of. It will save your farmers at least $500.00 in the purchase of trees. We are exclusive wholesale, selling direct to nurserymen at wholesale prices.  But were so deeply impressed with your unique idea and good business plan, that we decided to make you an offer, stepping aside somewhat from our custom.  **
     These are exactly the prices we are selling the nurserymen in your state in 100,000 orders, and we feel sure you will appreciate these very low prices. We guarantee our trees true to name and free from disease of every kind. In fact we guarantee every tree to be first class in every particular.  We are financially able to carry out our guarantee and contract, which is worth something in purchasing trees.  Our buds are taken from prolific bearing peach trees, which is another important thing to consider.  Most nurserymen take their buds from one year old trees."**
