MAY'S BIRCH, CUT 
LEAF

trees for the lawn ever intro-

with the foliage. It makes a 
rapid growth and is perfectly 
hardy in all sections of the 
countrj-. Mr. Scott in his 
"Suburban Home Grounds" 
says of it: "No engraving can 
do it justice. Like the palm 
trees of the tropics, it must be 
seen in motion swaying in the 
lightest breeze, its leaves tremb- 
ling in the heated summer air, 
its white bark glistening 
through the bright foliage and 
sparkling in the sun to enable 
us to form a true impression of 
its character." 3 to 4 feet, each 50c., dozen $4.50; 4 to 5 feet, each 
60c., dozen $6.50; 5 to 6 feet, each 75c., dozen $7.50; 6 to 8 feet,

An artistic and symmetrically arrangfJ 
m\ garden or lawn is always a delight to 
to the eye, and the pleasing appearance of 
such a garden enhances the value of the 
surrounding property. Trees properly trim- 
med, variegated or flowering shrubs, flowers 
massed with a regard to combinations of 
color, foliage plants — all of these contribute 
their share to the charm of a garden. The 
style of landscape architecture should bo 
madetoconform to the topographyof the land 
to be devoted to thatpurpose. Many beauti- 
ful results have been gained by the expendi- 
ture, not so much of money as of time, 
thought and labor.
