An Endless Story 



'"pHE longer you own a garden the more you will love your perennials — and the 

 ■*■ newer you are at gardening, the more desirable it is for you to plant them! 

 For they give the biggest return for the least care, hardly ever go back on you, 

 grow tall and profusely and handsomely, and offer an endless variety of form, 

 color, fragrance, and storied charm. It is easy enough to plan a perennial border 

 or garden that will give you never-failing bloom throughout two-thirds of the 

 year — a brilliant procession from the early Columbine of April, through the 

 Irises, the Peonies, and the Phlox to the Anemones and the Chrysanthemums of 

 late November — the "swan-song" of the floral pageant. 



Imagine the constant supply of cut flowers of the most fascinating variety 

 that such a perennial garden would give you for indoor adornment — and for 

 your friends! And the fragrant story will repeat itself year after year with 

 hardly a thought or a care on your part! Write us to-day for our price list of 

 perennials and our planting suggestions.

Garden and Farm Work Made Easy 



ECONOMY in farm and garden oper- 

 ations means more profit and 

 greater satisfaction. The Maculti- 

 vator eliminates the drudgery of 

 hand hoeing or that back breaking 

 method of pushing the cultivator 

 irregularly and jerkingly through 

 your vegetable rows. The man with 

 the hoe is not needed. Cabbage, 

 tomatoes, young onions, lettuce, 

 beets, radishes, carrots, celery, 

 small fruits, seedling trees in 



the nursery, flowers, mint, tobacco, 

 etc., all cultivated much better, 

 more quickly, easily and economi- 

 cally by motive power. Your lawns 

 may be cut and man power saved 

 by the Macultivator. 

 Lessens labor costs in many ways. 

 Prevents help troubles. Does the 

 work of five men. Sold on an abso- 

 lute make-good, tryout guaran- 

 tee. Write for interesting prop- 

 osition.

The Enduring Qharm of 

 The Flowering Qrab ^Apples

TREES may come and trees may go, but the 

 Crab Apples will go on forever. Of a constitution 

 that has enabled it to survive untold ages, Crab 

 Apples stand as a monument to enduring qualities 

 put into plant life. Nor does age ever make Crab 

 Apples ungainly. 



FLOWERING CRAB APPLES, the most gor- 

 geous of all flowering trees, greatly enhance the in- 

 viting charm and beauty of the grounds. Being 

 relatively low of growth they are excellently suited 

 for individual as well as group planting. No group 

 of plants has greater value than the Maluses for 

 enlivening open forest parks and country road-sides; 

 they present striking effects when planted on parking 

 strips of boulevards or wide city streets. 



Even when young they blossom early in May, 

 with flowers ranging in color from the deepest rose 

 to the most delicate pinks and pure white. Some 

 varieties bear tiny red and yellow fruits in the fall. 



Boxford-Highlands Nursery, East Boxford, Mass- 

 achusetts, offers many of the finest varieties, including 

 rare ones from the famous Arnold Arboretum. Flow- 

 ering Crabs are quite scarce and orders should be 

 placed early.
