Shrubbery 3 to 4 feet high 

 sometimes offered at 25 cents pei 

 plant. In this catalogue such shrubs 

 are more generally 35 to 50 cents 

 each. The slender plant on the lef i 

 at 25 cents represents an expendi- 

 ture of 81^ cents per branch. Tht 

 bushy plant on the right at 50 cents 

 represents an outlay of less than 4 

 cents per branch. Less money pei 

 branch — more flowers to enjoy be- 

 cause more branches to bear them 

 This is MOONS' quality. So, when 

 prices appear high, investigate. Set 

 if the higher price doesn't represent 

 increased value that means prettier 

 lawns for the money expended.
