T pays to buy MOONS’ slock. It 
pays,because the plants are espe¬ 
cially selected and freshly dug 
illy selected and freshly dug 
and packed for each order; have 
been reared with a care for their 
vigor of growth and shapeliness of 
form that make attractive lawn 
f dantings with a permanent accumu- 
ative value and enjoyment. 
Perhaps one of the reasons why 
MOONS’ plantings are so unjjaral- 
leled is because we personally are 
interested in having our customers 
make selections best adapted to 
their place, climate and purpose. 
Our informative Catalogue No.A-4, 
with its many illustrations, should 
he your first guide. Then let our 
Letter-Aid Bureau help. 
What a Home is Like 
is very much in evidence before ever you cross the 
threshold. Indifference to the appearance of the lawn 
and grounds is an indifference to public opinion. 
J UST as quickly as possible after completing your build¬ 
ing, yon want your property to have that finished effect 
which of necessity depends so vitally on the planting 
for its results. MOONS’ know how. Perhaps the secret lies 
in oTir methods of frequent transplanting. Possibly in the 
soil in which the stock is grown. Whatever the reason, 
MOONS’ plantings are so generally satisfactory that those 
we have served continue to send us customers.
