WO Generations have played 
under this Purple Beech. 
T HE advantages of the Purple Beech as a shade tree 
deserve to be better known — and acted upon. The 
Purple Beech is able to resist the adverse conditions of 
city and "near-city” or suburban life. It is remarkable 
for its fast growth and for its "length of days." As an 
investment, therefore, in the great need and virtue of 
country life — Shade — the planting of a Purple Beech will 
bring you an extraordinary and quick return. Not only 
your own (and your neighbor’s) children but the play- 
mates of succeeding generations will be grateful to the 
hands that plant a Purple Beech to-day. 
Moons' Nurseries were among the first to introduce the 
Purple Beech commercially to America, in the '60’s. And 
we are prepared now to do our share in popularizing it 
and urging our tree-lovers and shade-lovers to plant it 
more freely. We offer the famous Rivers strain of Purple 
Beech, wnich has the most enduring purple shade of 
foliage and the bark of elephantine color — the favorite bark 
of lovers who delight to carve hearts and initials on sym- 
pathetic trees. Our stock runs from 4 ft. to 1 6 ft. in height, 
at prices ranging from $3.50 to $25.00 each. 
We will suggest appropriate planting spots for these 
trees if you will describe your grounds when you send in 
your order If your home is not too far away from New 
York or Philadelphia, one of out traveling representatives 
will call upon you. if you like (without cost or obligation 
to you), look over your grounds, and offer friendly counsel 
not only concerning shade trees but upon other details of 
the landscape -planting and beautifying of your home sur- 
roundings. Let us hear from you soon — before the rush 
of Spring planting sets in.
