The Oaks, when they attain size, are our most picturesque trees. The species and varieties are numerous, 

 and the majority are adapted to ornament large grounds where they can have an abundance of room. Some 

 kinds, however, are moderate growers, and suitable for small places, especially if kept in good shape by a 

 judicious use of the knife. Our collection embraces a variety of forms and includes the finest.
