Do Not Delay Planting Your Oaks and Pines 



THEY take care of themselves and grow rapidly. Nothing is gained by delay, and for extensive landscape or forestry 

 planting, but little is gained by planting larger sizes. The small trees establish themselves quickly and soon begin 

 to make the maximum annual growth. The oaks will keep right on growing during a drought. Do not despise 

 them because of their reputation for slowness. They are the quickest permanent trees on soil that is too dry for 

 poplars. They will often grow two and three feet per year. 



For important situations where you cannot afford to wait, we offer several thousand large pines and other ever- 

 greens that save you ten years. They can be safely shipped with large balls of earth, held by canvas and platform 

 of our invention. 



The best evergreen hedge for the northeastern part of America is the white spruce. This is native from Maine 

 to Alaska and has a cheerful blue-green foliage. Our trees have been grown in squares three feet apart and frequently 

 root-pruned or transplanted. Every tree is a perfect cone with a dense ball of fibrous roots. They are sure to grow. 

 They are grown economically and offered at a low price. There has not been heretofore an opportunity to secure an 

 abundant supply of such stock. 



Send for catalog brimful of accurate information on trees and fitting them to .soil and climate.

TREE SEEDS I 



We have never looked 



upon Tree Seeds as a 



side issue. Instead, we 



have devoted a large 



portion of our time to 



them. 



The assortment we 



carry more than doubles 



that of any house — 



American or Foreign. We 



stock even the rarest 



species. 



Send your list to us for 

 prices.
