Shade and Ornamental Trees 



If there is any one thing that turns a house into a home, it is plantings of 

 the beautiful live things so generously provided by Mother Nature. They 

 are valuable because they increase the worth of your property in a very few 

 years, provide delightful shade in summer, and serve to break the cold winds 

 of winter. 



You do not need a landscape architect to lay out your grounds, unless you 

 want something elaborate and expensive. Before planting your trees it is always 

 wise to draw a rough plan and then work with it as a guide. Here are a few 

 hints that should help you to get a more satisfactory result: Plan your planting 

 so that, when your place is approached from the road, a pleasing picture will 

 be seen. Plant large trees at either end of the house, but studiously avoid any 

 plantings that will obstruct the view from the road. Let the passer-by see 

 your home and then you can see him. Plant shrubs and hedge plants in front 

 of the house. Look on page 20 for suggestions for planting evergreen trees 

 and on page 26 for hints on planting hedges. If you want a planting that is 

 intended to earn.- out your own ideas and reflect your individuality, the proper 

 thing is to get a few Harrison trees and plant them yourself. 



All ornamental trees we sell receive the same good care and treatment that 

 our fruit trees get, thus assuring you that the trees you buy are right in every 

 resi>ect. Our trees are excellent specimens, are graded liberally, and have extra 

 well-developed root-systems — a point you should always look for when buying 

 trees.
