MOYING HUGE PALMS. 



San Francisco. California. 

 To thk Editor : 



Of die two Wine Palms of Chili that 



1 recently removed from Redwood City 

 to Santa Cruz, 1 am sending you three 

 photographs under separate cover. 



( hie shows the two palms as they 

 stood when the workmen were just start- 

 ing- in to excavate for the purpose of re- 

 moving the large palm. These palms 

 had only been planted about three years, 

 as I removed them from San Mateo to 

 Redwood City about three years or more 

 ago. The second picture shows the 

 smaller palm out of the ground, laying 

 on its side in a box for shipment. This 

 palm stood with the frame around it 

 about thirty feet high. The ball was 

 sixteen feet square and about six feet 

 deep. The third photograph shows the 

 larger palm just raised out of the 



THE PALMS AS THEY STOOD AT REDWOOD, CALIFORNIA, BEFORE REMOVAL TO 



SANTA CRUZ, CALIFORNIA.
