MAPLES. 
bor general shade and ornamental purposes the Maples are more genei ally 
planted than any other trees. They are regular in outline, beautiful in foliage, 
vigorous growers, free from all diseases and adapted to all soils. By skillful 
pruning and enlture our Maples are trained into straight, stocky trees, not 
easily injured by high winds or ordinary street abuses. The Soft or Silver 
M aple is the most rapid growing, but for bcautv and perraanencv nothing can 
surpass the Norw.ay and .Sug.ir. We wish to again warn our customers not 
to be raised into planting Forest Grown trees. Thev not onlv do not' have 
the greatest essential— a mass of small fibrous roots— produced'onlv by trans- 
planting and cultivation, but they are not pruned and shaped propeilv, and 
being grown in cool, shady, damp situations in the forest are but poorly fitted 
lo withstand tne drought and heat of the open.
