BEAUTIFY YOUR HOME AND GROUNDS BY PLANTING LITTLE TREES 
And where is there a landowner who does not desire trees to beautify his home and grounds, whether they are large or small? 
Property without trees and shrubs has a barren and desolate appearance. Even a few trees add greatly to the landscape beauty of 
an estate. Many landowners realize that shade and ornamental trees on an estate are not only a source of pleasure, but also that they 
greatly increase property values. We cater not only to the landowners who use large quantities of trees, but also to those who can 
only use them in limited quantities. 
LITTLE TREE GARDENS 
Why not plant rows or beds of little trees in your garden, to be set in permanent places as they grow large enough? You can 
use them for borders and hedges, along paths, and around the vegetable garden; and as they grow, keep such hedges as you wish, trans¬ 
planting the other trees where they are needed on your property. They will afford you pleasure and interest from the first, and greatly 
lessen the expense of the ultimate plantation. 
The little trees require very slight care, practically nothing but weeding, and their varied characteristics and their frequent 
changes from season to season are a constant delight and surprise. They grow rapidly, some kinds doubling their growth annually 
for several seasons, while others increase from one to three feet each year. 
Such a little tree garden, or a private nursery, — and of these we have furnished hundreds, — adds much to the value of an estate. 
Transplanting can be done at any time, without delay, and at any stage when plants are ready to produce the effect desired. Set them 
on some waste land or unsightly spot, in groves or singly, along an avenue, or to use as windbreaks, screens, or hedges.

conifers for planting in little tree gardens, later on to be transplanted as ornamentals on an estate.
