Isaac Hicks & Son, Westbury, N. Y— Moving Large Trees 
These are the wild White Pines we have root-pruned to prepare them for moving. They are 50 per cent wider and 
denser than usual. In other regions we have root-pruned 25 carloads of White Spruce, 10 of Red Pine and 8 of Hem- 
lock. It is an economical, sure way to save ten to twenty years. Order for August, September, or winter moving. 
A carload of White Pines, about twenty-five trees 12 to 18 feet high. Note how the long, flexible branches tie in and 
how 'the root-pruning permits a ball small enough for close packing. We have shipped 30 carloads and have had no failures. 
Planting two White Pines 24 feet high. The heavy ball is easily rolled into the hole. We have developed the appli- 
ances and trained our men for economically moving these large trees. Are they not the best for you to employ ?
