R. & J. FARQUHAR & CO., BOSTON. FRUIT TREES. 
FRUIT TREES AND SMALL FRUITS. 
The fruit trees we offer are excellent young stock. Trees when received should pe planted at once in rich, prepared soil, the 
roots being carefully separated and spread. 
If dry weather follows planting, the trees must be watered and mulched. Branches of 
last season’s growth should be well cut back, thus encouraging the vigorous growth of new shoots.
