NOTE — The above was first introduced in our 1908 catalog. It brought so many favorable com- 
ments from people who did not understand the plan of setting fillers among permanent trees that we again 
give it space. The editor of the "Rural New Yorker" in commenting on it said: "It is excellent, the 
clearest description of how to plant filler* among permanent trees I have seen."
