and Shrubs”— 
Should he in your hands before you buy for spring plant¬ 
ing. It gives full information as to the habits and 
characteristics of this class of ornamentals, and shows

A Hint oi What this New Book Is Like 
Herewith we reproduce in miniature the cover and one of 
the illustrations of this book. Flowering Crab Ample, shown 
in the lower picture, is thus described by the book: “With 
perfume-laden—sweet fragrance with every breath wafted 
here and there by spring’s soft air; with harmony of color—blushing pink and rose from opening 
bud to falling flower so bright and fair; this is the call of the Wild Crab Apple. The answer, 
gentle reader, you know too well, for who has not responded? Their dainty flowers, with enticing 
sweetness, make fast friends everywhere. They are very hardy and thrive in almost any kind of 
soil, making both ornamental and desirable specimen trees for lawn or garden.”
