Most of our evergreens are dug with a ball of earth retained about the 

 roots, promptly wrapped in burlap (without extra charge). We have just 

 completed an additional large and well-appointed packing house, where 

 orders will be checked over and plants carefully packed for shipment. 



Large Stock and Assortment 



Over four hundred acres of fertile agricultural lands, stretching along the 

 stone road and trolley line from Trenton, N. J., and Morrisville, Pa., to 

 Yardley, Pa., planted w^ith two thousand varieties of hardy ornamental 

 trees and plants are a revelation to the amateur, and of interest to the more 

 experienced planter. In fact, because of the inadequate labeling in most 

 Parks, the Nurseries are almost the only places to identify the long-tested 

 sorts and new introductions. Visitors are always welcomed to our Nurseries, 

 excepting on the Sabbath and Holidays. Those coming by auto will find 

 us by good roads. Those coming by train may take the trolley from 

 Trenton, N. J., or Yardley, Pa. If your time is limited, it may be better 

 to arrange beforehand for our conveyance to meet you at the station. 



Location and Shipping 



Our shipping facilities are exceptionally good. We are located just across 

 the Delaware River from Trenton, N. J., which has freight and express 

 service over the Philadelphia & Reading Railway, connecting with the 

 Baltimore & Ohio, and over the Pennsylvania Railroad, which radiates in 

 five directions. Besides its direct route to New York and Philadelphia, 

 the Belvidere division runs toward the north, the Amboy division goes 

 into New Jersey, the "Trenton Cut-off" takes W^estern freight, eliminating 

 delay or change at Philadelphia. The success that has attended our many 

 distant shipments should be assurance that no matter how far away, you 

 are not debarred from "Moon's Hardy Trees and Plants for Every Place 

 and Purpose." There is boat service from Trenton to New York and 

 Philadelphia, where connections include Boston, Providence, Hudson 

 River points and Baltimore. 



A compilation of freight charges on a number of shipments tends to show 

 that seldom does transportation to points 

 within a radius of 300 miles from our Nur- 

 series amount to more than 10 percent, 

 of the value of the stock, and often 

 it is a great deal less. Express rates 

 run about two and one-half times as 

 much as freight. 



Parcels Post furnishes a means of 

 shipping some of our stock, but 

 owing to the varying weights 

 and sizes of it and to the zone 

 system of charges for such 

 parcels we are unable to 

 give in this catalog an\' 

 satisfactory idea of the 

 cost of such transporta- 

 tion. The postage will 

 (as with freight and ex- 

 press shipments) be paid 

 by the purchaser. The 

 amount of such postage
