Deciduous Trees 
The growing demand for nursery grown shade trees has induced us to plant a large stock and we are in a position to supply 
suitable trees for street and avenue planting in immense quantities. Special quotations in carload lots will be given on applica¬ 
tion. All of our nursery grown trees have been several times transplanted, therefore have a fine root system and transplant 
readily, whereas the forest grown trees have a poor root system, and the loss in transplanting such trees is always very 
heavy. The initial cost of nursery grown trees is very little more and far cheaper in the end. Why not get the best? 
DIRECTIONS FOR PLANTING AND PRUNING. — Before setting out* cut off the bruised or broken roots. Trees 
with branching heads should have the smaller branches cutout, and the larger branches cut back to within three or four buds of 
their base. When the tree has an abundance of roots and a small top of few branches, prune very sparingly, but when the roots 
are small and the top heavy, then prune the tree severely. Many persons plant large trees without pruning; this is the cause of 
their failure to grow. Always dig the hole intended for the tree of ample size, so that when the young roots start out they will 
have soft ground in which to grow. Well rotted stable manure, thoroughly mixed with the soil is the best fertilizer. 
Plant the same depth as the tree originally stood in the nursery row, using the top soil for filling in around the roots. See 
that every interstice around the roots is thoroughly filled, and see that every root is brought into contact with the soil. When 
the hole is nearly filled, throw in a bucket of water so as to set the soil around the roots, then fill in the balance of the hole and 
press the dirt gently with the foot. When the tree is planted, mulch with 5 or 6 inches of well-decomposed stable manure; this 
should extend over the circumference of the hole ; keep free from grass and weeds and loosen up the soil occasionally.
