HILLS eV€l 2 QR€€N BOOK 
C In over thirty states there is not a county 
that does not have a Hill Evergreen windbreak 
and in many states I have customers in every 
city, town and hamlet, and every customer is 
my friend. I count this as one of the greatest 
rewards of my success as an Evergreen grower. 
I would not exchange this confidence and 
friendship for all the wealth in the universe. 
C On my own farms in Minnesota, Michigan, 
Iowa and South Dakota I planted Evergreen 
windbreaks and watched their success. In 
1882 I planted on my Minnesota farm, in Wat- 
tawon county, an Evergreen windbreak of one 
thousand trees. I saw that farm in a few years 
increase in value 50 per cent over adjoining 
farms that did not have Evergreen windbreaks, 
and when I finally sold it and bought another 
in 1890, I readily got $92.00 per acre, when 
nearby farms without windbreaks were with¬ 
out buyers at $35.00 to $50.00, and my farm was 
actually worth that much more than the others 
because it would raise BIGGER CROPS.
