Shade ® Ornamental Trees 
State Nursery grown trees are emblematic of the best of what the Northwest can produce and the num- 
erous unsoHcited testimonials we receive bear out that fact. Our location is ideal, with soil, that gives all our 
trees the one essential requirement, a good strong fibrous root. 
Our trees are being planted for parking not only by private persons but by many of the cities throughout the 
State. 
The ideal packing is our specialty, the trees reaching you in practically the same condition as when they 
were dug. All the trees are wrapped the full length in burlap and the roots completely covered with wet moss. 
We guarantee all stock true to name, but accept no responsibility other than replacing, in case we make 
one of those errors which creep into every busy season.
