 Middle of 



September 



you should select the 

 Hyacinths.Tulips, Nar- 

 cissi, Crocus, Iris and 

 other bulbs and plants 

 that are to be added to 

 your garden this fall. 

 The wealth of bloom 

 that makes the spring 

 garden bright comes from bulbs that 

 are set early — before the ground is 

 cold enough to retard root forma- 

 tion. Selected bulbs were never 

 so cheap — note these prices:

September is the time to soften unattractive angles of a house 

 or porch foundation with Moons' Evergreens 



Most houses require foliage about them to relieve bare 

 masonry work. Evergreens are best for this as their ef- 

 fectiveness lasts the year 'round. Even in Winter there is 

 a cheerfulness about the home nestled among Evergreens. 



Their stock has developed a symmetry of form and vigor 

 of growth that insure attractive plantings. 



Send for catalog — better still, describe the bare foun- 

 dations of your house and get our estimate of cost for 



Moons' have an Evergreen for Every Place and Purpose. Evergreens that will soften them.

Hardy English Walnut Orchards 



No longer an experiment 

 in Zero Climates 



Plant an English Walnut orchard this fall. Make a beginning; 

 and add to it each season. No bank failures, business depres- 

 sions nor trust investigations can interfere with this source of 

 pleasure and income, for its rock foundation is the development 

 of a natural resource. Start with rugged acclimated trees, grown 

 under severe climatic conditions, with temperature far below 

 zero at times. Conditions that breed iron-clad vigor and 

 vitality aud that produce trees so hard}', they may 

 be planted in cold climates with the same assurance 

 of successful fruiting: as Peach trees. 



We believe this is the only northern locality, where 

 commercial orchards of English Walnuts may be seen, 

 some of them containing hundreds of trees which have 

 been bearing regularly for more than twenty years. 



For the lawn or driveway, English Walnut is exquis- 

 itely beautiful with its smooth light gray bark, luxu- 

 riant dark green foliage, llofty, symmetrical growth. A 

 homel'ul tree to plant about the home. Roches'er 

 parks and public streets contain many beautiful 

 bearing trees, apparently as hardy as the Maples and 

 Elms. At least, thriving under the same conditions, 

 and producing annually delicious nuts as well as 

 shade. Truly a most delightful combination. 



We have unlimited faith in trees bred and grown 

 under these conditions, and are sure that those who 

 plant our hardy strains of English Walnuts will be 

 well pleased. 



The picture shows 'a Mayo English Walnut tree planted it 

 1907, began bearing in 1911. Superior quality, extreme hardi 

 ness, early bearer, safe to plant.
