GURNEY’S SELECTED SHINERS 
COLORADO BLUE SPRUCE— The more I 
see the Colorado Blue Spruce, the better I think 
of it. I see them glistening in the sunlight like 
jewels among the green evergreens of our 
nursery, and throughout the dry, hot years, they 
have grown and survived without injury. These 
Selected Shiners will add much to the beauty of 
your home.

GURNEY’S COLORADO GREEN SPRUCE 
We accumulate, here in our large nurseries, over 
a series of propagations, a lot of the “Green 
Type” Colorado Spruce. These trees have the 
same formality, same symmetrical growth, and 
are identical to the “Colorado Blue Spruce” and 
“Shiner” in every way, except in color. These 
are a beautiful green color, but they are not 
worth quite as much as the Blue Type. We are 
offering these trees to you, this year, as long as 
they last, at a very low price. We feel that you 
should have some of these and, therefore, are 
putting them in at a price that will permit their 
being used for windbreak planting.

B. B. or P. I. P. 
The B. B. stands for “Balled and Burlapped.” 
The tree is dug and the soil around the roots 
confined in burlap. It insures live delivery but 
transportation is high because Soil is heavy. 
“P.I.P.” means “Packed In Peat.” • We have 
a new machine that packs Peat Soil Tightly 
around the Mudded Roots. Peat holds seven 
times its bulk in moisture and weighs about 
HALF as much as soil. We have had trees 
“Packed in Peat” standing for two months 
without injury. 
Save Half your Transportation by Ordering 
PACKED IN PEAT Evergreens. 
For Evergreens w'ith M udded Roots deduct 
15% from regular prices. 
BLACK HILLS SPRUCE 
What made the Indians call the mountains of 
South Dakota “Paha Sapa” or Black Hills? It 
was none other than this beautiful Spruce tree 
that imprisons the shadows and from a distance, 
gives the Hills a black shade. But the Black 
Hills Spruce is not black as an individual. Its 
new growth is Silvery and is therefore also called 
the White Spruce, variety Albertiana. Don’t 
forget that last name. It speaks for hardiness, 
and compact growth that makes this Spruce one 
of the most Beautiful for Landscape Planting.

PINES 
Black Hills (Bull)Pine 
BULL or PON DEROSA— Native of Black 
Hills. Heavy, massive needles from 6 to 10 
inches long of deep green color on the surface 
and bluish-white underneath. It is an extremely 
handsome ornamental tree, very drought- 
resistant, and hardy. Grows tall and upright, of 
well rounded pyramidal shape. A very de¬ 
sirable evergreen for western planting.

The Black Hills Spruce 
SCOTCH PINE—The Scotch Pine is a very 
satisfactory tree for groves and windbreaks. 
Also, has its place in landscaping as it makes a 
fine ornamental tree, very rapid in growth, per¬ 
fectly hardy, and does exceptionally well in South 
Dakota and also points south and southeast. 
Transplants more readily than other Pine. (Sizes 
3 to 4 ft. and up.) 
JACK PINE—Grows nearly as fast as the 
cottonwood, and gives you better service. This, 
in my opinion, is the most desirable of all ever¬ 
greens for quick windbreaks; easily transplanted, 
growing in any kind of soil; holds its color and 
foliage all winter, making an excellent windbreak 
or shelterbelt almost from the first year. 
Write for prices on larger sized Pines from 6 
to 10 feet tall.
