TREE 



SEEDS 



WHEN you plant a tree, 

 you're adding to the com- 

 fort, happiness, health, 

 and wealth of a coming genera- 

 tion. You're doing good in the 

 world. You're building up. 



When you plant a tree, start it 

 from a Thorburn seed because 

 this seed is selected from the best 

 of stock, is secured under the 

 most favorable conditions and 

 it grows. 



Whether it be for shade or fruit, 

 order your tree seeds from Thor- 

 burn's the seed house famous 

 for quality for 116 years. 



Don't forget Thorburn's 

 Flower Seeds and Thor- 

 burn's Vegetable Seeds 

 for your war-time garden. 

 And this year be sure to 

 order early.

supporting braces. Neatly and strongly put | 



together. Mesh reinforced between the posts f| 



by horizontal rows of heavy wires. Every part = 



galvanized by hot spelter process and hence 

 rust-proof. The wire mesh comes right tot ha

 erecting instructions furnished with every in- 

 stallation. Or we will do this work for you 1
