Plant Evergreens 

 This Fall 



Fall is an ideal time for setting out Evergreens. 

 In the photograph of the garden above, arbor 

 vitae, dwarf pines, hemlocks, rhododendrons and 

 spruce serve as a delight to the eye during hot 

 days of summer, or ■ when winter's white mantel 

 falls o'er the landscape. 



Various types of evergreens are suitable either 

 in a formal garden, or as sentinels posted at the 

 entrance of a drive or walk, as a foundation plant- 

 ing, or as single specimens on a broad lawn. We 

 can tell you which varieties fill your horticultural 

 need best. 



And while planting shrubs this autumn, add a 

 few beautiful varieties of roses to your garden. 

 Fruit trees, both dwarf and standard, and hedge 

 plants, can also be planted to advantage at this 

 season. 



The Elm City Nursery Company gives especial 

 care to the growing and cultivation of evergreens 

 and hedge plants. We are the originators of the 

 famous box-barberry plant. A visit to our nurseries 

 will convince you of the high quality of our stock. 



Our Landscape Service 



has been of aid to owners of estates, of suburban homes, and 

 to directors and trustees of country clubs, hospitals, schools, 

 churches, and industrial plants. Write and tell us your land- 

 scaping problems and secure additional information about the 

 landscape work we do. 



Send to-day for our beautifully illustrated 48-page catalogue, 

 and place your order early for fall planting. You are cordially 

 invited to visit us at our nurseries.

WE UNHESITATINGLY 

 RECOMMEND 



ONE MAN IN HIS TIME 



By Ellen Glasgow 



A beautifully wrought novel 

 full of arresting passages which 

 make it a notable work. . . 

 "Her characters are brilliantly 

 drawn; her plot is well sus- 

 tained." $2.00 



THE FIREBIRD 



By Gene Stratton-Porter 

 A long narrative poem by the 

 woman whose books have sold 

 over nine million copies in sev- 

 enteen years, Charles Wharton 

 Stork has said of the " The 

 Fire-Bird": 



"A comparison with 'Hiawatha' is 

 inevitable, but in our opinion 'The 

 Fire-Bird' is the gainer, in that it 

 is more unified and compelling as a 

 narrative and closer to one's imag- 

 ination of actual Indians in style." 

 $1.75 



GENTLE JULIA 



By Booth Tar\ington 



"Don't miss this book, but 

 don't try to read it aloud to 

 anyone. You couldn't do it 

 justice, not in its best parts, 

 because no one can speak dis- 

 tinctly who is all broken up 

 with laughing." — Hildegarde 

 Hawthorne in the New York 

 Times. $1.75 



AT THE CROSSROADS 



By Harriet T. Comstock 



"Mrs. Comstock's honest ideal- 

 ism, her agreeable literary facil- 

 ity, and her feeling for beauty 

 all combine in one harmoni- 

 ous whole . . . A thought- 

 ful book which will appeal 

 strongly." — Hartford Courant.
