84 HARDY SHRUBS 
State Nursery and Seed Co, 
S. N. * S. CO'S HARDY TREES, SHRUBS, VINES 
' . . ■ • ■ • • • > • •' .' ■ > •• 
Our forty-eight years’ experience in Montana has 
enabled us to select and grow only such Trees, 
Shrubs and Vines that we have found to be hardy 
and adaptable to conditions found in Montana and 
the Northwest. This is something no other insti¬ 
tution can offer you. 
CARE IN WATERING 
Growth should be encouraged during the early 
Summer months and ample water should be applied 
at this time. Do not merely wet the surface but 
give several successive applications, so that the 
water goes to the very lowest root extremities. 
About the last part of August and during Septem¬ 
ber water should gradually be withheld so that the 
Trees and Shrubs will have a chance to mature up 
properly for the winter. After the leaves have 
fallen and the Trees have gone into their Winter 
dormant state, it is well to soak with water again. 
NOTICE 
We endeavor to send out only stock that will 
grow with proper care and attention. We should 
be advised BEFORE AUGUST 1 should any Trees, 
Shrubs, etc., fail to grow. We will replace any of 
onr nursery stock at one-half price that does not 
start growth by August 1, providing it was prop¬ 
erly planted and arrived in good condition. We 
are not responsible for damage to goods in transit, 
therefore you must examine at the express or 
freight office, and have any damage noted upon 
your express or freight receipt. We are always 
glad to replace goods injured in transit, providing 
receipt showing damage is returned to us so that 
we may enter claim and reimburse ourselves.
