SH ADE TREES AND EVERGREENS 
This is where the skill, honesty, perseverance 
and reliability of the nurseryman count for so 
much. Care on his part means everything to you 
_and you have to take his word for it. Good trees 
are the kind we grow. We have a force of men who 
have been with us for twenty years. We have 
other employees who came over from Holland’s 
greatest ornamental nursery. We get the best 
stock that we can find to start with, and we 
develop it with all the skill known to modern horti¬ 
cultural science. We guarantee that our trees are 
the very best that can be grown. Some nurseries 
produce as good trees as we do. Others do not. 
We are sure of our own, however, and if you buy 
from here you will be sure of what you get. 
Have your trees shipped to you at the right time 
of the year. If you leave the time to us, we will 
send them so that they arrive at the proper time.

"spring planting” we mean that trees should go 
into the ground just as early after Christmas as 
you can work the ground. In fact, if there is a 
general thaw in January and if you can get them 
What fine hedge Privet will make with proper trimming. Six years ago 
this was only two hundred feet of 4-foot plants—(400)- Five Elms shown 
along the street with the Privet plants cost only $8.50. Inside this hedge 
are extensive grounds of an old-fashioned lawn, filled with various kinds 
of trees.
