FALL PLANTING PAYS 
“$T pays because you save time for yourself which you will need when spring-planting time 
f, comes, with everything calling to be done at once and a limited time in which to do it. 
By planting in the fall you gain a season’s growth for your plants, and give them 
time to establish a good root-growth before it is time for them to break into bud and blos- 
som. The root-system .thus established will carry your plants safely through the hot, dry 
days of summer without the set-back they might get if planted at a less favorable season. 
It Is Necessary to Plant Now
