Grow "Golden Seal" 



Dried Roots of it sell at $5 per pound and 

 wholesale druggists are eager to buy them. 

 "Hydrastis Canadensis" or Turmeric Root, 

 also called Indian Dye, thrives from Ontario 

 to Georgia and West to Missouri and 

 Minnesota. 



I will ship either roots or seeds direct from my own 

 gardens in the high mountains of Western North 

 Carolina. "Golden Seal" will grow for anybody and 

 the product is more reliable than Ginseng. For best 

 results it should be planted in the fall. Write for 

 price list TO-DAY.

Here's a photo we snapped just as the owner of the house had attained the evergreen arrangement 

 above ground that he decided to make a permanent one. 



Here is the house foundation before the evergreen transformation, 

 the stilted, "formidable" aspect of its barren lines 



Note 



An Evergreen Planting Suggestion 

 Well Worth Following 



m 



ONE of the happy facts about evergreen 

 planting is that you can know in advance 

 just what effect it will give to your grounds. 

 You can do as the owner of the house shown 

 above did. When his Bay State evergreens 

 arrived (with each root ball securely bur- 

 lapped) he placed them about his foundation 

 above ground. He then kept changing the loca- 

 tion of this one and that one until he got an 

 effect that exactly suited him. Tlten he planted. 



Had things just right at the start. 



He has the added assurance that the 

 pleasing transformation he has attained will 

 be a lasting one. For he knows that his Bay 

 State Stock has the rugged root power, and 

 the sturdy backbone to withstand rigorous 

 Winters and give him continued pleasure and 

 satisfaction. 



You can have that same assurance. Send 

 to-day for our Hand Book of Information.
