PINE - Pinus 
The Pines are used principally for group or mass plantings where the trees 
can grow to a fairly large size. They are very rugged and picturesque. The 
Austrian and Scotch Pines make good lawn specimen trees, while the Mugho, 
being of a small dwarf habit, lends itself to foundation planting work. 
Austrian Pine 
SCOTCH PINE (Sylvestris). Lg. As a

robust, rapid growing tree, very thrifty.

light, delicate or silvery green. Grows in

Have You An 
OUTDOOR CHRISTMAS TREE? 
Increasingly popular is the custom of 
decorating outdoor Christmas trees for the 
holiday season. We offer an endless 
variety of evergreens which are 
adapted to that purpose as well as 
for year ’round beautifiers of the 
home grounds. 
EVERGREEN 
WINDBREAKS 
An Evergreen Windbreak on a 
farmstead is best appreciated by 
the farmer who already has one. 
Such a windbreak not only 
tempers the cold winds for 
both man’s and animals’ win¬ 
ter comfort, but also saves on 
feed for the livestock.
