'TPHE lumber production of the 

 1 U. S. for 1917 was 40 billion 

 feet, of which 2 billion went for war 

 purposes. This rapid cutting down 

 of timber calls for constant planting 

 to replace the trees which have gone. 

 You can help by planting trees in 

 your neighborhood on your lawn, 

 orchard, farm, golf course, public 

 parks, etc. 



deserve your special attention be- 

 cause of their very high quality and 

 because of the exceptional care 

 which is taken to obtain them from 

 the very choicest sources. In buying 

 tree seeds it is always most econom- 

 ical to get the finest obtainable, be- 

 cause your tree must grow and flour- 

 ish for years. 



Back in Thomas Jefferson's time 

 discerning men and women planted 

 Thorburn's Seeds and these seeds 

 have maintained their reputation for 

 excellence for 116 years.
