Planting Boxwood is like putting 

 money into U. S. Government 

 Bonds. Boxwood grows into 

 money. During the past ten years 

 we have paid thousands of dollars 

 for well-developed specimens re- 

 quired by our landscape department. 

 Ten dollars, planted out in form of 

 Boxwood this year, should be worth 

 a hundred dollars ten years hence.
