Put Your Planting Problems up to Meehan 
Meehan Service — personal, individual service—superior because it is the 
result of sixty-five years of cumulative experience—is at your command 
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 condi¬ 
tions, and will give you practical 
and helpful suggestions according¬ 
ly. This preliminary advice is of¬ 
fered you without charge and with¬ 
out 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 nec¬ 
essary to an intelligent considera¬ 
tion 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. 
THE LANDSCAPE DEPARTMENT 
For properties of more than one 
acre, or those presenting unusual 
or intricate problems, we urge 
adoption of a professional service 
which we can provide at moderate 
cost. 
HOW ABOUT A PERSONAL 
CALL? 
During January, February and 
early March several of our Depart¬ 
ment heads will visit our customers 
in the states east of the Mississippi 
River, starting with the Southern 
States. These visits will be re¬ 
sumed during the summer months. 
If you will write us soon, and say 
it will be agreeable, it is likely 
that one of these experts can ar¬ 
range, without expense to you, to 
call on you while in your vicinity, 
inspect your property and talk the 
matter over with you in person. 
- 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 — TO-DAY. Let us send you our Hand-Book 
for 1920. Planting time will come before you realize it. 
ARDWARE seems a small 
item in home-building. But 
it is a finishing touch that gives 
an air of distinction and harmony 
to your home. 
Avoid the conventional. Choose 
Sargent Hardware. There is a 
style of Sargent Hardware which 
just fits that home you are plan¬ 
ning. Send for the Sargent Book 
of Designs, showing the many 
tasteful patterns. Then 
choose, with your ar¬ 
chitect, the one to har¬ 
monize with your par¬ 
ticular style of architecture. 
Sargent Door Closers 
There are doors around your house 
that should always be kept closed—the 
back-stair door, cellar door, storm door, 
lavatory or closet door. 
Sargent Door Closers 
add to the quiet and 
dignity of any home, 
office, public or private 
institution. There is a 
size for every door, 
large or small.
