THE 1,500 6REENIHG ACRES AT MONROE 
SCENE OF MANY VARIED ACTIVITIES 
Having the spacious propor¬ 
tions of a western ranch/ laid 
out in checker-board patterns; 
here and there wildernesses of 
trees alternating with wide open 
spaces/ acres of gorgeous 
blooms, pastel shrubs, umbrageous 
evergreens and conifers, all com¬ 
bining into a heterogeneous riot 
of vegetation—here is a picture 
to stagger the imagination. 
A view of a portion of one of Greenins's Two Year Old Apple Tree Blocks. Straight, 
perfectly developed, thrifty trees. Healthy, sturdy trees such as these, assure profits 
to the Fruit Grower. 
A view of one of Greening’s Two Year Old Pear Tree Blocks. Note uniform straight 
trunks, thirfty, well developed tops, indicating tremendous, vigorous fibrous root 
systems, resulting from Greening’s scientific propagation. 
F or carrying out every one of the vast divisions of 
Greening enterprise every requirement is available on 
the 1500 acres of land at Mon¬ 
roe. The Greening nurseries pre¬ 
sent a scene of action that has 
all the dramatic elements of a 
giant hippodrome, a colossal 
witch’s caldron and a Gampus 
Martius rolled into one. 
MYRIAD TREES 
Here unnumbered thousands of trees 
stretch in seried ranks like soldiers on 
review,- there lie whole platoons of 
plants uprooted and laced for ship¬ 
ment by the carload. Over beyond 
are legions of seedlings, shyly lifting 
their heads to the breezes and the 
sunshine—they are the growing chil¬ 
dren in the nursery. 
Yet every one of these growing 
plants has a history, even a pedigree. 
Their ancestors are known, their line¬ 
age traced back for generations,- their 
characters an "open book in the 
"Million Dollar Library’’ of the Green¬ 
ing Nurseries. 
These varied growing things are to 
go out into somebody’s peach orchard, 
or into the border of a garden, or into the rose garden 
or a proud home owner. 
Amazing beauty can be derived from Greening’s evergreens and conifers.
