SPECIAL AND IMPORT PRICES FOR SPRING OF 1903 
43 
Ornamental Deciduous Trees 
1 . Mowing hst ot trees is selected from the best nurseries in the United States. Orders will be shipped from the nearest nursery 
a can suppi} stock ordered, so as to save freight charges and secure quickest possible delivery; where stock is ordered in considerable 
\ane ), 1 is sometimes shipped from two or more nurseries to secure trees of the best qualities. 1 always endeavor to secure the best stock 
in e market tor my customers. The prices quoted are for trees of the most suitable size for transplanting; extra-large trees of many 
varie es can be supplied, but are not recommended. If quick results are desired they can be had by taking small- and medium-sized, but 
per ec \ vigorous and healthy trees; for instance, dig a hole 4 feet deep and 4 feet in diameter for each tree, and fill with all good surface 
soil, mixed with one-fourth its bulk of rotted stable manure. 
t costs considerable to plant trees in this manner, but the results justify the expense, and people often pay from $10 to $50 each for 
arger rees, which always fail, generally dying outright within three years, and never making vigorous, healthy trees. Some kinds of trees 
maj,! esarely planted much larger than others. Magnolias, Beeches, Tulip Trees and White-Leaved Linden are difficult to transplant, and 
? ma , '* 1 ^ ea tr ees of these should always be selected. Some varieties should always be planted in the fall, others in the spring, and I will 
be glad to advise my customers on these and other points in regard to planting. 
Lowest net prices will be quoted for trees by the 100 and 1,000 on application. Specially desirable trees are marked with asterisk (*) .
