To ascertain the number of plants required to the 
acre at any given distance, divide the number of square 
feet (43,560) in an acre by the number of square feet 
you desire to devote to each plant. For instance, in 
strawberries planted iy 2 by 4 feet, each hill will occupy 
6 square feet, making 7,260 plants to the acre. 
Book Orders Early 
No nurseryman can carry a complete stock of 
everything ALL THROUGH THE ENTIRE SEA¬ 
SON. It is easier to sell a customer four months 
ahead of delivery date than to sell just before 
shipment. It costs the customer NOTHING to 
order early. Early orders receive complete pro¬ 
tection on varieties and are always filled with 
best grades. Each year we have to turn down 
hundreds of orders for Apples, Evergreens, Hybrid 
Plums, Specimen Flowering Shrubs and other 
stock simply because the orders came too late. 
We were sold out. Book your orders early and 
avoid this loss and disappointment.
