Planting a Largfe Tree with the Tree Mover. 
XR-KIC ^XOVKR. ^o. 2* Patent pending. Recently constructed. Carries the tree root foremost. 
For trees 35 feet high and 14 inches in diameter, with 25*foot spread of top and roots. It will also carry three trees 
30 feet high and 8 inches in diameter, thus delivering cheaply with two horses trees for immediate effect. 
jWOVKR. ^o. 3. Will carry from one to three trees, 28 feet high and 5 to 8 inches in 
diameter, with 20-foot spread of branches and roots. 
TrR.I£I£ l^IOVIiR. 4« See illustration below. Transports evergreens up to 28 feet in height, 
with a ball of earth up to 9 feet in diameter, weighing 10 tons. By our new method of clamping the ball solid, 
trees can be moved at any season, whether frozen or not. For smaller trees, a windlass is mounted on the 
mover and the balls quickly rolled up on the mover. 
For moving? larjfer trees sliort distances, we have several other methods. 
If largr^ transplanted trees are given as good care as is demanded by a bed of cannas during 
the growing season, that is, the ground kept moist and fertile, and free from weeds, a good growth is made the 
first year, and a more vigorous growth is frequently made in the succeeding years than the tree made on its 
original site. There have been no failures with deciduous trees 
moved by us, except through cultural neglect that would not raise a 
hill of corn or potatoes. All our Evergreens moved with a ball of 
earth have grown thriftily. 
Wc liave moved larjs^e specimens of tlie fol- 
lowidR": Norway, Sugar, Sycamore, Swamp and Silver 
Maples, Horse Chestnut, Pin Oak, Dogwood, Catalpa, Elm, Ashe, 
European, American and Silver-leaved Lindens, Hornbeam, 
Beech, Magnolia, Poplar and Willow. In fact, almost all de¬ 
ciduous trees except, perhaps, the Hickory and Chestnut, which we 
have not tried, can be safely moved. Also many kinds of evergreens, 
including Spruce, Pine, Fir, Arborvitse, Retinospora and Cedar. 
Orders <or movin$^ deciduous trees should be 
given before August 20 for fall, which season is preferred for most 
varieties, and before February 20 for spring. 
Everjfreens can toe moved at any season, 
but moving them in June and July is not advisable. 
Xree movers will toe sent to any part of Fon^^r 
Island, Xortliern Xew' Jersey and West Clies- 
ter. With good roads we have no trouble in moving trees 40 miles, 
and on open barges over ferries. Tree movers for sale.
