THIRTY 



HIS shows a part of our crew of one hundred and sixty men. Many of them have 

 been operating the tree-movers and carefully digging trees with us for many years. 



We plan our work so as to keep a large crew employed the year round. Fortu- 

 nately the ground does not freeze deeply in midwinter on Long Island, and we can 

 keep fifty men and competent foremen ready to send out on tree-moving contracts. 

 Please note the men do not have the old-time heavy nursery spade, chiefly useful for chopping 

 off roots and prying out trees, leaving one-half of the roots in the ground. Each man has a fork 

 with rounded tines, which, with the picking bar, is used to dissect out the roots. 



HOW TO ORDER. — Call at the nursery and select the trees, which will be labeled and 

 reserved until the planting time; or send for our catalogue and price list, which gives the diameter, 

 height and spread of the trees, and the quantity on hand of each size. 



If you wish to move large trees in your vicinity, send name of tree, circumference at three 

 feet from ground, spread of branches and approximate height. We can then decide on the approxi- 

 mate cost, but it is usually necessary to see the trees and local conditions before making contract. 



Our nurseries are located on the Jericho turnpike, one mile north of Westbury, on the main 

 line of the Long Island Railroad. 



The trolley from Mineola to Hicksville passes the south end of our nursery, connecting with 

 Hempstead, Freeport, Port Washington and other villages.
