OAK, continued 
and then return to make new roots. These new roots, just getting to work, may not supply the de- 
mands for moisture in summer, and the tree may die. Our Oaks have the roots properly trained 
for transplanting, and are carefully dug. The pruning should reduce the buds to 15 or 25 per 
cent of the original number, leaving some large buds at the end of each branch. Wrapping the trunk 
with straw, and mulching the ground, help to establish the tree. Understanding these principles, no 
more trouble need be expected with Oaks than with other trees. 
Pin. Q. paluslris. The Pin Oak is a thickly branched tree of upright ovate form and graceful 
habit. It is the most popular and most generally planted of the Oaks. It may be identified by f 
its habit of drooping its long, slender lower branches at a uniform angle. The. small glossy j 
leaves are bright red in autumn. As an avenue or broad-spread- 
ing lawn tree it is unsurpassed. Trees 50 feet high transplant 
readily and grow well. Besides the usual sizes we offer many 
Pin Oaks, 20 to 30 feet, and 30 to 40 feet high, as illustrated be- 
low, and strongly recommend their use. They give a dignity 
and completeness attainable with few other trees. Prices, in- 
cluding delivery on the tree- 
mover and planting, on applica-

that they may be safely shipped 
by rail. 
Scarlet. Q. coccinea. This species 
is so named from its bright scar- 
let autumn color. The tree rer 
sembles the Pin Oak in foliage 
and form, except that the lower 
limbs are horizontal or ascend- 
ing. We offer specimens 10 to 
15 feet high. 
Red. Q. rubra. The Red' Oak is 
a large and noble tree, with 
strong, wide-reaching arms. The 
large leaves in autumn are a dull Pair o{ pin QakSi and hedge of old Boxwood) 4 to 7 feet high) moV ed with the
