SELECT EVERGREEN TREES 



ONE OF OUR EXHIBITS OF EVERGREEN TREES AT THE MONMOUTH COUNTY FAIR, 



In shipping, all except the inexpensive varieties are "lifted" with a ball of earth at the roots, 

 with the soil encased in burlap. 



The prices are for bushy, well furnished trees, in sizes that can be readily shipped. Twelve of "any 

 size quoted will be supplied at ten times the price of each annexed— six or more at dozen rates. Quota- 

 tions for larger sizes and for varieties other than those named Mill be cheerfully given by letter, upon 

 request. 



As will be noted by the above illustration, my evergreen trees ar donse, full and shapely; due to 

 the soil at Monmouth being peculiarly suited to growing them well and to careful culture and pruning. 

 My supply is a varied and large one; for want of space I offer but a few of the hardiest and most popular 

 varieties.
