Let me plan 

 your grounds 



After eight years' service with Mr. E. C. Con- 

 verse, of Greenwich, Conn., as landscape architect at 

 ids country estate of Conyers Manor, I am now 

 open for engagements in my professional capacity. 



I am qualified to act as consulting gardener and as landscape 

 architect. My specialty is in laying out an estate, or the grounds 

 around a country home, along Nature's own lines so as to obtain 

 beauty and charm at a moderate expense. 



Beginning at the famous Blenheim estate of the Duke of Marl- 

 borough, I have had a professional experience of twenty years. 



My fee is proportionate to the size of the place, and the amount 

 of time given to it. 



I can be of much help to the owner of a small place of a few acres, 

 as well as to the owner of a large estate. 



If you are interested I shall be glad to send you my book 'The 

 Making of a Country Estate," which will give you an excellent idea 

 of my work. Address
