Plan Your Garden for the Future 
Settle your ideas of what you want to do or intend 
to do. Construct yoitr plan and work with that ulti¬ 
mate end in view. 
Where the Garden Scheme permits of Formal treat¬ 
ment, the Terrace, Balustrading, Steps and Fountains 
should be planned at one time. 
Most Garden pieces are stationary. A Wall Foun¬ 
tain that would go well with your Garden now, may 
not be at all appropriate finally. 
If at present yon only need a vase to break the 
monotony of the wall, or a Sundial Pedestal for some 
plot, or possibly a Table or a Bench for the Tennis 
Court, which afterwards would be used to help out 
the Pergola yet to be built, purchase these pieces with 
the ultimate scheme always in mind. 
The Erkins Studios have every facility to help 
yon, or to collaborate with your Architect in the 
planning of your Garden, and in our Studios we show 
the most complete collection of Garden Furniture. If 
you are interested in furnishing your Garden write us.
