SPECIMEN EVERGREENS WITH BARE ROOTS 
Real bargains on plentiful kinds. Use more of them. They certainly will not 
be available at such prices again soon, since the 
smaller 
stock all 
burned 
up last 
summer. Each X represents one transplanting.

Small sizes of kinds listed below with Ball and Burlap may be had dug with 
bare roots and packed in moist peat or moss at the following reductions from the 
B & B prices: 
12-18 in. 15c each 18-24 in. 20c each 2-3 ft. 25c each 
This represents only the saving in digging. The saving in transportation 
costs to distant places will be much more. Of course, they will require more 
careful planting and must not be allowed to dry out. 
SPECIMEN EVERGREENS WITH BALL AND BURLAP 
The following prices are for well developed trees, mostly sheared, dug with 
a solid ball of earth securely burlapped and bound. In planting, do not remove 
the burlap. After the tree is in place, and hole partly filled to hold it, cut the 
burlap loose around the top and pour in plenty of water. Large trees over 9 
feet should be ordered before hard freezing so they can be mulched for winter 
digging, and the ball of dirt frozen solidly before moving. Imperfect specimens 
(defective on the side or at the bottom) can often be used as effectively in 
groups and will be priced according to quality. Each X represents one trans¬ 
planting.
