SPRAYING CALENDER
EXPLANATION — While the number of applications recommended will be found
desirable in seasons when the fungi are particularly troublesome, a smaller number
may often suffice. An asterisk (*) cautions against spraying with poisons while the
plants are in blossom; two asterisks (**) indicate that there is danger in making an
application within 3 weeks of the time the fruit is to be used as food.

Do not spray with arsenites or copper compounds within three weeks of the
time the sprayed portions are to be eaten. While there would be no danger of fatal
effects resulting, it is best not to run any risk. Bordeaux mixture and other lime com-
pounds should not be used upon rough or full-grown vines even as late as that time.
Not only does the lime disfigure the fruit, but the amount of copper is large.
ANNOUNCEMENT
SIXTY-THIRD YEAR
SIXTY-THREE Years ago this business was established by Geo. J. Kellogg, father
of the present proprietor. During that time it has been the policy of this firm to offer
to the public such varieties of fruits of all kinds, and such ornamental trees, shrubs,
etc., as have in our judgment been proven to be hardly and reliable. From time to time
we offer new varieties but in doing so we select only such as we believe have merited
a place in our trial plats and are worthy of a general trial.
We extend our thanks to our customers in the past; and from those who
receive this list, who have not heretofore favored us with their patronage, we solicit a
trial order, feeling sure we can interest you with our prices and satisfy with our goods.
We want our customers to get value received.
We offer a large stock of trees, plants, vines, etc., of the best standard varieties,
well grown and thrifty. All stock is handled and packed under cover with no exposure
to sun or wind; packing is done by experienced men under our personal direction
We deliver the goods well packed to the transportation companies, after whicii
our responsibility ceases.
WE DO NOT GUARANTEE STOCK TO GROW at the prices we ask. The planter
must take that risk and give all stock good care. Where parties wish stock guaranteed
to grow we do so but at an advanced price.
GUARANTEE — We exercise the greatest care to have all stock true to name and
grade and satisfactory in every way, but it is hereby agreed between the purchaser
and ourselves that should any stock not prove true to name, on proper proof, w<s
will replace it or refund the purchase price, but shall not be held for further damage.
CLAIMS — All claims for shortage, errors, etc., must be made within FIVE DAYS of
receipt of stock, or same will not be allowed. Mistakes do occur; but we are always
willing to do all we can to correct any errors for which we are responsible. But in
making complaints be reasonable.
ORDERS are acknowledged at once upon receipt of same, and should you fail to
receive an answer in ten days write us again. Always give your name and address*
and write same very plainly; also give full shipping directions.
Order early before the assortments are broken and thereby avoid disappointment
and possible delay.
Orders are shipped in rotation, as far as possible, and late ones must take their
turn.
SUBSTITUTION — When any variety or grade is exhausted we reserve the right to
substitute or to put in a smaller grade of trees, unless otherwise stated in the order,
but in this case the true name will always be on such stock, and full value sent if
smaller grades are used. We furnish 6 at dozen, 50 at hundred and 500 at thousand
rates, and allow an assortment of varieties.
TERMS— CASH with order.
REMITTANCES — Remit by draft upon Chicago or New York, registered letter,
money order or express order. Parties sending personal checks must add 10 cents to
cover cost of collection.
Plant With Care, and see that the earth is packed firmly about the roots and that
all trees planted are thoroughly wet down and well mulched. The ground should be
well prepared before planting and given thorough cultivation afterwards.
On receipt of stock dip roots in water and bury in moist ground, except straw-
berry and raspberry plants, which should not be wet, these should be heeled in the
moist soil, open the bundles and spread out, packing the soil firmly to the roots. All
stock should be set out as soon as possible.
To parties wishing same, a short list of instructions in regard to planting and
cultivation of stock, spraying and formulas, will be mailed on request.
Any information not given in this list will be furnished on application.
PACKING CHARGES — Bales of less than 50 trees, 25c; 50 to 100 trees, 50c; 150
trees, 75c. Where more than 150 trees are ordered they will have to be boxed, in
which case no charge will be made for packing except the cost of boxing, as follows:
30 by 30 inch heads, $2.50; 24 by 24 inch, $2.00; 18 by 18 inch, $1.50; all 8 to 10 feet
long. No charge for packing small fruit plants at the list price or for cartage. We
have Wells Fargo and American Express Companies and C. & N. W. R. R., C. M. & St.
P. R. R. and Rockford, Beloit & Janesville Electric Railway Company.
Please give preference, if any, by what line you wish order shipped. Send your
orders direct to an old reliable firm and save the profit of the middleman. We thank
you for past favors and solicit your further orders and all orders sent us will receive
our most careful attention. KELLOGG’S NURSERY,
M. S. Kellogg, Prop.

PARCELS POST SHIPMENTS
The regulations of the Post Office Department are such that the shipment of trees
by Parcels Post is not practical; packages of more than 84 inches in combined length
and thickness are not mailable.
The following weights will be a partial guide in helping to determine the amount
of postage necessary.
Strawberry plants, 1 dozen, 1 pound. 50, three pounds. 100, five pounds. 200,
seven pounds. 500, 18 pounds. 1000; thirty pounds.

If you are in doubt as to how much to send for postage after you have asked your
postmaster for the zone and rate; send enough for the postage or the goods will be
sent by express. We will not open small accounts for postage and the surplus over
enough to pay postage will be promptly returned.
APPLES
In the propagation of this fruit we use as nearly all nurserymen do, the piece root
graft, using a long cion and a short root.
The experience of over half a century has demonstrated that such trees are better
for the north than either whole root grafts or budded trees. When the long cion and
short root is used the lower half of the cion (which is all below ground except the
tipper two inches) will nearly always start roots, and these being the same variety as
the cion makes the tree hardier and longer lived. Our grafts are made here by experi-
enced men under our personal direction.
Varieties marked thus * are recommended for the extreme north.

PLUMS
We propagate mainly of the native varieties (Prunus Americana) as we find they
**• much more reliable than the European or Japan sorts. We use the piece root graft
and hardy native seeding.
A most satisfactory fruit, especially for exposed or unfavorable locations. Will
grow anywhere, even on poor ground; fruits well even under neglect and is perfectly
hardly.
There is a marked shortage in stock of the American plum this season and we
advise those wishing same to place their orders early.

We can heartily recommend these plums as to hardiness, size, color and productive-
ness; they have in a very short time made a place for themselves in the Horticulture of
the Northwest that will endure for all time. Our stock of these plums is limited and
parties wishing same should place orders at once. We will not agree to supply these
varieties on orders received after April 1st. Order NOW.
SKUYA — Sioux Indian for SWEET. This plum in our opinion is one of the plums
that have come to stay no matter what may be produced later. It is a cross of the red
June, a large early Japanese plum, and the De Sota plum, which is known to practically
everyone in the North who has ever grown plums. The color of the fruit is a very dark
red and yellow, and is the most delicious f@r eating purposes of any plum we have ever'
tasted. It is an excellent keeper and shipper. In August, when this plum ripens, we
took a half bushel basket of them and set them in our office here and allowed it to stay
there for more than one week; at the end of that time the plums were gone over care-
6
fully and not a discolored spot on any of them or any indication of decay. They have
retained their peculiar fragrance to the end. The pits of the Skuya are exceptionally
small. The size of the fruit on the young trees is not quite as large as the Hanska, bu,t
of a larger size than most any of the American plums.
HANSKA — (Sioux Indian for TALL), and refers to the extraordinary growth and
symmetrical shape of the Hanska plum. The Hanska does not come into hearing as
early as those varities containing Sand Cherry blood, but three and four year old trees
in the nursery were loaded with most excellent fruit. The Hanska was produced by
crossing a wild Northwestern plum with the very large, firm freshed fragrant apricot
plum of China — Prunus Simoni — which is so very popular in all of the orchards of Cali-
fornia. This variety has all of the good qualities a plum should have. The Hanska is a
very large plum, a great many specimens measuring better than T% inches in diameter.
Is of the best quality for eating from the tree, for canning, preserving, or making jelly.
None of the California or native American plums compare with it in any way. In color
it is a bright red with heavy blue bloom. In shape it resembles its male parent, the
Apricot plum. To see this tree in the nursery, its tropical foliage, its limbs laden with
the luscious reddish-blue fruit, to get on the lee side of it and catch its fragrance, is a
pleasure that can only be exceeded by the actual eating of the fruit. As a shipper no
other plum compares with it.
OP AT A — Is a cross between the Dakota Sand Cherry and the Japanese Gold plum.
Vigorous in growth, heading low and of spreading habit; forms fruit buds readily on
one year wood and bears the year following; color is dark reddish purple with green
flesh; size from 114 inches to IV2 inches in diameter; quality is of the best. Pit very
small. Ripens July 10th.
SAP A — A cross between the Sand Cherry and the Japanese plum Sultan. Large
size, purple with a rich glossy skin, flesh reddish purple, quality of the best. When
left on the tree till fully ripe it is nearly black in color of skin and flesh. Is retained
on the tree very readily and is a valuable variety for market. Season about the same
as Opata.
CHERESOTA — A cross of the Sand Cherry and the DeSoto plum. Size from one
to 1XA inches in diameter; a glossy black when ripe, flesh yellowish green, sprightly
pleasant flavor, thin skin, and free from astringency. Blooms late and is nearly if not
quite free from damage by frost. Ripens just after the Sapa and Opata. Excellent for
canning, etc.

PHLOXES
TALL CHOICE PERENNIAL VARIETIES.
OUR PLANTS ARE WELL-GROWN AND STRONG.
Hardy Phloxes have long been so popular that it is rare to find a garden without a
collection of at least a few of the many beautiful vareties now in cultivation. No plant
is more attractive or more useful,, either for the adornment of the garden or for sup-
plying cut flowers.
To those not familiar with these plants we desire to say that they are perfectly
hardly, and succeed well in almost any kind of soil. Small plants are usually selected
to start with, as they increase rapidly in size, not in height so much, which is from 2 to
3 feet, but in the number of flower stems, which multiply year after year.
Assorted colors, white, white with lavender eye, pink, pink and white, red, lavender,
and light red. 15c each; $1.50 per doz.
BUDDLEIA, VARIABIL1S MAGNIFICA (Butterfly Bush)— A beautiful shrub, car-
ries long graceful panicles of deep purple-lilac flowers, which begin to open in mid-sum-

STRAWBERRIES
To this department we give special attention and the plants we offer are equal to
any grown, are carefully graded, and no small, inferior ones sent out; they are fresh
dug from new beds that have never fruited, and are shipped to our customers while in
fresh, vigorous condition. They are not held in the packing house till half their vitality
is gone. We ship in baskets or light boxes, and all plants are neatly trimmed and tied in
bunches of 25. They are carefully packed and we guarantee them to arrive in good con-
dition when shipped by express. We do not recommend freight shipments for this class
of stock.
Those varieties which are strong growers and make a heavy stand of plants are
more reliable than those which only make a moderate growth. When we prove a variety
to be inferior to the standards it is discarded, and while all varieties may not suc-
ceed the same as with us, we judge them by actual test in field culture grown with
the object of marketing fruit at a profit.
Plant two by four feet on thoroughly prepared ground, cultivate often and when you
have a solid matted row two feet wide, restrict the growth, (don’t let a weed grow)
mulch in fall with straw or some coarse material free from weed seed, remove a
part of it the following spring and place between the rows as mulch.
Varieties marked “Imp.” are imperfect in blossom and must be set with “Per.’’ per-
fect flowering kinds.
Varieties marked * we especially recommend for general cultivation.
Owing to the very dry summer the past season we have a much lighter stand of
plants than usual. Indications are that the supply of plants in the entire country is far
from up to a normal amount; those who wish plants must place their orders early. We
will not agree to accept orders after April 15th for strawberry plants. Our present
stock of plants will be exhausted long before the season is over and we shall have to
depend on buying to fill many of our orders, and plants will be sent direct to our cus-
tomers.
If you want good plants, true to name and properly handled, place your orders with
tis. We guarantee plants to be true to name and will be delivered to the transportation
companies in the best of condition but we decline to accept any responsibility and
plants must travel at the buyer’s risk. We will be pleased to have you visit our nur-
sery at any time and inspect our stock.

and Senator Dunlap make a fine pair.
EVERBEARING STRAWBERRIES
A new departure in fruit growing. The Everbearing Strawberry is one of the new
things that has come to stay. For more than ten years we have been working with this
new class of berries and now we are convinced that they are a success not only for th/e
home garden but also for the commercial grower if he will give them the proper care.
The trial test of Mr. Clarence Wedge of Minneosta proves this when he picked 74%
quarts from one square rod of Progressive; plants were set May 1st and buds and run^
ners were cut off till July 10th and between July 23rd, when the first ripe berries were
picked, and October 31st the square rod produced 74% quarts. At this rate the yield
would be 747^ cases (16 quarts) per acre the year of planting and the fruit comes at
a time when it will readily sell at from 20 to 25 cents per quart. We have tried a large
number of varieties of the Everbearers but have discarded them all but three, for one
fault or another, of these three varieties we have a fair stock and we offer them at prices
named below.
In growing the Everbearers the following is the most approved method of culture.
Plant as early in spring as the condition of soil and weather will permit, keep all bloom
removed from the plants until about one month before you wish the fruit to begin to
ripen. Allow the plants set to produce from four to eight runners and when these are
rooted keep all other runners cut off as soon as they appear. You will then have a
hedge row or half matted row system and if clean culture is given and with good fer-
tile soil you will get lots of berries. If you wish fruit do not let them make too many
plants. A bed of the Everbearers after having fruited the year of planting should be
well covered and can be carried over to fruit the following June if desired or the
fruit stem can be kept off the second season until July 15th and they will bear again
in the fall. Right varieties, rich soil and good culture will win with the Everbearers
but the greatest of these is GOOD culture.
PROGRESSIVE— (Rockhills No. 16) Originated by Harlow Rockhill of Iowa and
said by him to be his best variety, among the many he has produced. Large size and
fine quality. Productive.
SUPERB— Per. Large, dark, roundish, dark colored, glossy, of first quality. Plant
is about average size, strong grower and winters well. A good plant maker. One of
the best. Succeeds best on light soil.
AMERICUS — Per. One of the best of the fall bearing varieties. Plant is a strong
grower, healthy and winters well after bearing in the fall. Fruit large and of fine
quality. Does not fruit quite as early in fall as some but holds in fruit later than
others. On heavy soil this is very sucessful. Medium plant maker.
Price 50c per doz.; $3.00 per 100.

SAXALEA GUERNSEYS
In 1914 we began the breeding of GUERNSEY Cattle. We have some young stock,
bull calves and a few females to offer and shall be glad to hear from any who are inter-
ested, and in case we do not have any stock of our own there are several breeders near
here with whom we are in touch and it might be possible for us to refer you to some one
who would have the stock you are looking for.
Our foundation cow, Imp. Ceres of Sarnia No. 53728, has just finished a year under
semi-official test and produced 350.3 lbs. of butter fat under ordinary herd care, running
on pasture and milking twice a day. Our herd is strong in May Rose blood and we
shall follow that strain of breeding and blend with it Masher 63 and other leading
families.
Our herd sire, Park’s Billy France, No. 34537, is by Rhea’s King of the May, through
whom he traces to Imp. King of the May and Imp. May Rose King. His dam, Billy
France’s Fillpail,, now in our herd, made 54 lbs. of butter fat in 30 days as a two year
old, and traces to Fillpail IV. of the Hall and Billy France.
Write us when you are in the market for a sire and we will do all we can to supply
your wants or put you in touch with someone who can.
