Plant Now Your Shrubs and Trees 

 Don't Wait Till Spring 



w 



H Y wait if there is nothing to be 

 gained by the wait? Any wise 

 old gardener will tell you that 

 Trhen things are planted in the fall, they 

 have plenty of time to settle down and 

 feel at home in their new location before 

 the life of Spring starts them up. Start- 

 ing and stopping is discouraging alike to 

 people and growing things. Fall plant- 

 ing has everything in its favor. 

 Experts tell us that this soil of ours com- 

 bined with this rugged climate and our 



method of growing; produces the finest 

 of thick sturdy roots and vigorous tops. 

 We believe this is so. Look at the thick 

 mass of roots on the shrub at the right 

 and the big ball on the Rhododendron. 



Such full rooted specimens are the kind 

 to buy. 



You can absolutely depend on them. 

 Buy some of Bay State dependable 

 things and plant them now. Send for
