EVERGREENS. 
Tlie trees which we ofl'er here are all aiirsery grown, transplanted stock. 
In traiisplantiiiK never allow tlie roots to be exposed to the suu for a single 
moment. A uiulching of straw or leaves will be found very beneflcial, especially 
in dry seasons. Allow chem to branch freely near the ground. This prevents 
the soil drying up qtjickly around the root* and adds to the beauty and 
effectiveness of the tree. , . , 
Evergreens should be planted at a time when the earth is warm and 
they can commence growth immediately. Unlike deciduous trees they 
never become dormant, but must receive nourishment from the soil at all 
times, consequently there must be plenty of fine soil about the roots when 
planting, so that root action may begin at once. Fall or early spring 
planting is not desirable; the best time for transplanting evergreens is in May 
or early June, just as the new growth is ready to start.
