Pin. Quercus palustris. 



We call especial attention to our 2 to 3 inch trees. These are as good as can be 

 grown. They have had a root-pruner run under them by eight horses. Four years 

 ago they were transplanted in squares 6 feet apart. One critical buyer says, "I gave 

 you first prize on your Pin Oaks, especially after I saw the roots." He bought 50 

 trees, and they all grew uniformly. We can show you a block of 1,000 Pin Oaks, 

 planted six feet apart. Their uniform growth shows that Pin Oaks are not hard to 

 transplant. This planting wide apart and root-pruning is an improvement on the old 

 way of planting little trees one by three feet apart, letting them grow up crowded until 

 they were two inches in diameter and hacking them oat with short roots.

Scarlet. Quercus coccinea. 



The handsomest of all the Oaks in its Autumn color. This and the Black Oak 

 are the most rapid-growing Oaks of dry, sandy soils, making 2 to 3^ feet a year on 

 established young trees. The larger sizes are difficult to transplant and slow to 

 recover. Mix in a few Pines, and you have the ideal combination.
