EVERGREBigrS. 



On account of their increasing demand 

 we give this class of trees and shrubs our 



special attention. We may say that as per- 

 manent planting there is nothing that JSj 

 more beautiful and adds more comfort 

 than well developed specimens of ever- 

 green trees. Our cedars and spruce 

 are among the most beautiful for landscape 

 architecture. A thing of beauty is a joj ; 

 forever, and the old saying goes with th« • 

 evergreens. :
