Modernize Your Plantings with 
Evergreens 
E VERGREENS are the aristocrats of the plant world. 
They give dignity and charm to the home grounds. 
Some years ago Evergreens were used but spar¬ 
ingly and one seldom saw them except as an occa¬ 
sional group on the lawn of some larger property. 
Today the striking attractiveness that is so evident 
in the surroundings of the newly-landscaped homes 
is largely the result of the generous use of evergreens 
in the planting. The present moderate cost and the 
compelling beauty of the evergreens gives them this 
deserving popularity. 
Fortunate we are indeed to have available many 
new evergreen varieties that were unknown in the 
past. By a wise selection and arrangement of these 
modern evergreen forms, a fresh interest and beauty 
can be given to older plantings and an unusual at¬ 
tractiveness to new ones. 
Whether your yard plantings are now established 
or still to be placed you have equal opportunity to use 
evergreens to heighten the attractiveness of your 
home. We will be happy to help you make suitable 
selections. 
The modern gardening mode favors evergreens. 
A house planting in the modern mode—with Red Cedar, Arborvitae, 
Savin Juniper and Mugho Pines. 
In foundation plantings the dwarf types are used 
directly around the building with taller sorts at the 
house corners and by the doorway. For lot boun¬ 
daries and screen plantings and for lawn specimens 
the larger-growing kinds are adapted. 
For the rockery, the flower garden, the cemetery lot 
and in fact wherever the charm, dignity and color of 
evergreen plants is desirable you will find types that 
are well suited for the purpose.

The inserts show the careful way in which the 
solid root balls are dug and wrapped for ship¬ 
ment.
