HARDY SHRUBS AND PERENNIALS 
INCLUDING HEDGE FRANTS 
Fall A Grand Time To Plant TSiesn 
t 
Shrubs and Perennials are the mosUeffective,beautiful and economical means for the improve” 
ment of a home property,'and no matter how much you may spend on it no fence ever can equal 
a hedge. A very few dollars spent for hardy stuff will add so much to the attractiveness of home, 
and so very many dollars to its selling value. Indeed the happily planted grounds frequently ap¬ 
peal so strongly to a buyer that he is quite willing to pay all that is asked irrespective of its 
intrinsic value. Most Shrubbery aud Perennial Plants readily accommodate themselves to all 
locations and conditions, thrive and grow luxuriantly, and require little attention. When you set 
them out firm the 7 soil well around the roots and water thoroughly. We like to plant in the Au¬ 
tumn when the soil is cool and mqist, so that the roots will become well set, ready for* an early 
Spring start. -
