The Right Plan for 
the Spring Gardening 
P LANTING methods should 
be carefully thought out. To 
lay out a new place or to im- 
prove an old one, requires first 
of all a well considered plan. Let 
our landscape gardeners aid you. 
The more than 50 years of suc- 
cess of the Meehan organization 
in all garden work, is your assur- 
ance of expert service. The ser- 
vice includes not only the mak- 
ing of plans, surveys, landscape 
work, sewage disposal, water sup- 
ply and advice on shrubs, prun- 
ing, spraying and forestry, but 
we actually do the work, having 
our own permanent expert organ- 
ization. Let us quote you rates 
on any work that you may have in mind.

Carpenter’s Tennis Fence 
All-Galvanized - Rigid - Indestructible 
T HERE are a good many things to think of when selecting a wire 
fence, and the careful architect and “owner” thinks of most of them. 
This explains why our “tennis fence,” for instance, has been adopted 
by a great majority of the leading Tennis and Country Clubs: also by 
hundreds of private owners. 
We are makers and builders of iron railings, entrance gate^ and wire 
fences. We make a specialty of fences for 
Lawns Gardens Farms 
Private Estates Parks Factories 
Our all-galvanized, unclimbable, chain link fences are specially suitable 
for estate boundaries and industrial properties. We make a fence for 
every fence purpose. 
Our illustrated catalog will help you solve your fence problems. 
It will be sent on request. Your correspondence is solicited.
