Suggestive List of Varieties to solve your Planting Problems 



IN response to a repeated demand for suggestive lists of varieties suited for certain places and purposes 

 we have prepared this index. It does not contain all the varieties suited for the purposes named and 

 there are doubtless instances in which some of the trees and shrubber\' enumerated will not be found 

 suited for the purpose specified, due to climatic, soil or other conditions which have to be taken into con- 

 sideration in selecting each planting. So it will be understood that these are merely suggestive lists to 

 direct the attention of our readers to varieties most generally found suitable for the several purposes 

 mentioned. 



If you do not find in this index the needed help in the solution of your planting problem we are at 

 all times ready to help our patrons with the preparation of their lists or with more detailed suggestions to 

 solve their particular problems.
