INTRODUCTION 
F OUR WINDS FARM NURSERY, INC., enters its fifteenth 
year in the field of outdoor beautification with this new Cata¬ 
logue for 1940. 
We are located on Main Street, just a mile and a half east of the city line, 
and our plants may be easily seen from the street. We hope that you will 
come to see our Nursery frequently and enjoy the many interesting periods 
of bloom displayed there. 
Perhaps our most progressive step in recent years has been the trans¬ 
planting of perennials in full flower to home-gardens without any loss of 
bloom or harm to the plants. You will find such plants as Primroses, 
Phlox, and Chrysanthemums all ready in pots, or wrapped in burlap, 
so that you may take them along easily in your car and use them to fill 
in the empty places in your garden. 
Besides perennials, we also have an excellent supply of specimen shade 
trees, fruit trees, evergreens and flowering shrubs, and our Landscape 
Department is ready at all times to advise you and assist in planning and 
carrying out all phases of landscape treatment.
