It will confirm your deci- 

 sions on fitting your selec- 

 tion of trees to your soil and 

 climate. It offers trees for 

 dry and acid soils and moist 

 soils in the same region. 

 Many nurseries on alkaline 

 soils do not specialize on 

 oaks and pines. 



Trees 20 years old can be 

 selected now. They are 

 guaranteed to grow satis- 

 factorily or replaced free.
