BIG PINES 



For September Planting 



TREES 6 to 20 feet high. Trees that save you five to ten years or 

 more. Guaranteed to grow satisfactorily or replaced. They have 

 been skillfully grown in the nursery, frequently rootpruned and trans- 

 planted. This results in a compact system of small feeding roots contained 

 in a big ball of earth. We have invented canvases and platfomis for 

 securely holding this ball of earth. They will ship a thousand miles. 



How Can I Use Them? 



Evergreens from the nursery are usually 

 considered little bright spots to look down 

 upon and wait for. These big Pines 

 serve a purpose corresponding to the side 

 walls of a house. Are you annoyed by 

 the dust and noise of the street ? Are you 

 disturbed by the constant passing? Are 

 you wishing you had a larger country 

 place where the public did not intrude ? 

 To get such a place would cost more money 

 and perhaps necessitate traveling further 

 out of town. 



These Pines will make a dense screen imme- 

 diately. You can have them planted in a few 

 days and enjoy them immediately. Send for 

 Hicks Evergreens for August-September Planting. 

 It suggests several beautiful ways of arranging 

 Pines with Laurel, Birch and Oak. 



There are thousands of other large evergreens 

 growing in squares 6 to 15 feet apart — Austrian, 

 Scotch, Pitch and Jack Pine, Hemlock, White and 

 Nordmann's Fir, Blue and Douglas Spruce. Let 



us send you five free samples of White Spruce 3 to 

 5 feet high, hardy, dense, bluegreen. Excellent 

 for the seashore or mountains. 



Living Oif The Country 



Are there beautiful big Pines or Cedars 

 5 to 30 feet high ? Do you wish the fun of 

 selecting and grouping them in your 

 home landscape ? We will send apparatus, 

 foreman and a few expert men to work 

 with local men and teams. July is the 

 time to start. Do you want big Elms or 

 Sugar Maples? Now is the time to pick 

 them out. The same crew can move 

 them in September or October. 



Do you wish some shrubs and flowers to plant 

 right away? We have them in boxes and pots, per- 

 mitting planting where the places are closed in April.
