A ready buyer 
awaits these trees 
Not the ordinary grade as commonly offered. Not fair specimens 
but the cream of large blocks selected when young and trans- 
planted with ample room for development, pruned, cultivated 
and well fertilized. Such trees not only transplant bftter but 
their shapeliness and vigor show the result of our special treat- 
ment. When you buy these specimens you get the best effort s 
of over half a century’s plan t-gr- wing experience. You will i ever 
take chances on the ordinary grade if you see this stock li.-t.

Horse Chestnuts: Red and White Flowering 
Maples: Norway, Sugar and Sycamore 
Ash: White and Green
