LANDSCAPE GARDENING 
The majority of American suburban grounds are laid out and planted without the aid of professional advice. The result 
is almost always unsatisfactory, although often the expenditure would have secured most beautiful results if directed by 
skilled advice. I do landscape gardening—do it for people of exacting taste, to whom I refer. I make the plans, with esti¬ 
mates, purchase the stock necessary and superintend the work. I do any one or all of these things, satisfactorily as to results, 
moderately ns to cost. For small grounds I can make satisfactory plans if furnished with a plat drawn to scale. For large 
grounds, and where extensive improvements are desired, a personal visit would be necessary and can be arranged for on 
reasonable terms. I can make no plans during the month of April.
