No matter whether your home-grounds are large or limited in area, write us, question 
us freely. Your letter will be assigned to, and answered by, an expert plantsman, who 
has studied your section, knows its climatic and soil conditions, and will give you practical 
and helpful suggestions accordingly. This preliminary advice is offered you without charge 
and without obligation. 
THE MEEHAN PLANTING PLAN FOR AVERAGE PLACES. 
For the ordinary city or suburban lot or for places up to one acre, we have devised a 
“New Property Data Form,*' on which you can easily give us the information necessary to 
an intelligent consideration of your needs. When you write, ask for this form, and upon 
its return, properly filled out. we will, without cost to you. submit a proposition that will 
make of your home and grounds a beautiful picture. If this is approved by you, we will 
then submit a detailed list and estimate of cost of the planting material needed to carry 
it out. 
THOUSANDS OF CHARMING HOMES 
all over the country owe their beautiful setting of Trees, Shrubs and Hardy Flowering Plants to Meehan service and Meehan stock . It may 
be wise, therefore, for you to learn about us before deciding what you are going to do to make YOUR home beautiful. This is planning 
time! Better write us at once — TODAY . Let us send you our Handbook for 1916 . Planting time will come before you realize it . 
HOW ABOUT A PERSONAL CALL? 
During January, February and early March several of our Department heads will visit 
our customers in the States Fast of the Mississippi River, starting with the Southern 
States. These visits will be resumed during the summer months. 
If you write us soon, and say it will be agreeable, it is likely that one of these experts 
can arrange, without expense to you. to call on you while in your vicinity, inspect your 
property and talk the matter over with you in person.

Unsightly 
Radiators 
Concealed 
In this room, the unsightly radia¬ 
tors are hidden in walls under 
windows. The method of doing 
this, as shown in photograph, is the 
very best one to get the proper 
heating results. The small Grille 
in sur-base is for the intake of cold 
air which drives the warm air out 
of the enclosure through the other 
Grilles. The Grilles in the front 
panels allow the heat to circulate 
into the room, while the Grille in 
the window sill throws the heat up¬ 
ward along the surface of the win¬ 
dow, heating thoroughly the part 
of the room that would be the 
coldest under any other arrange¬ 
ment. Send for catalog 66A— 
showing eighty of these Special 
Grille Designs suited to various 
orders of decoration — Colonial, 
Classic, Empire, Louis XIII, XIV, 
XV, XVI and Oriental.
