DIRECTIONS FOR PLANTING TREES 
If possible, plant trees immediately on arrival. In any case keep 
roots moist. Do not expose to sun and air. 1. Dig hole large enough 
so that roots will not be crowded, plant 2 inches deeper than soil 
marks at base of tree. 2. Fill hole half full of rich top soil, firm 
well and fill hole with water. When water has drained away, fill 
remainder of hole with balance of dirt. 3. Prune top well back as 
this helps tree to grow. About once a week water until soil is com¬ 
pletely saturated. Wrap trunk with burlap or paper to prevent sun 
scalding and borers. If tree is large and shaken by wind, stake tree.
