Successful Planting and Care 
We have prepared special transplanting and cultural directions on all classes of tree fruits and berries we list 
and will gladly mail these to you upon request. 
which you should follow carefully. 
Be sure to remove wire label before tree begins 
to grow or it will be fatally injured through 
strangulation. 
CARE OF STOCK ON ARRIVAL 
The bundles should be opened immediately, the roots 
dipped in water, then heeled in moist ground, so that 
the mellow earth will come in contact with the roots 
and thoroughly protect them from the air, having the 
earth tramped solid about them. 
GENERAL PLANTING 
The ground should be carefully prepared by deep 
plowing and firming down with a dise and harrow. 
The holes for planting must be large enough to re- 
ceive the roots freely, without cramping or bending 
them from their natural position. All broken or muti- 
lated portions of the roots must be ecut off so as to 
leave the ends smooth and sound. All trees should be 
planted two or three inches deeper than they stood in 
the nursery row; pack the soil very firmly about the 
roots by tramping with the feet, being careful not to 
bark or break the roots. Leave three inches of the 
surface soil loose to serve as a mulch. If the ground 
is very dry apply one or two pails of water before this 
soil muleh is in place, and after the water has soaked 
away it can then be placed over the moist soil. Never 
put manure so as to come in contact with the roots or 
body of any plant or tree.
