OUR GUARANTEE 
Ninety per cent of all trees sold at our regular prices 
as quoted in this price list (except seedlings) are guar¬ 
anteed to live. If you will notify us before October 1, 
1940, of the number over 10% which do not live, re¬ 
placement will be made. Shipment will be made by 
express collect. 
In other words, we guarantee that 90% of the trees 
you buy will live. We will ship you enough trees 
next fall so that the total you have will equal ninety 
per cent of the number you originally purchased. 
SEEDLINGS ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO LIVE. 
If we are unable to furnish replacements in the exact 
size which you purchased, we will furnish them in 
the nearest size. Trees shipped by freight or truck 
not guaranteed. 
TIME TO PLANT 
Planting should be done during the 
time of year when the trees are not 
growing, which means from Sep¬ 
tember first until the ground 
freezes in the fall, and from early 
spring until about the middle of 
May. We do not recommend the 
planting of forest trees on wet 
loam, or clay soil in the fall, (on 
this type of soil the action of the 
frost during the winter will throw 
the trees out of the ground). Fall 
planting on light, well drained, or 
sandy soil is very satisfactory. 
WHAT TO PLANT 
In general, pines for lumber, 
spruce for pulp, American Arbor- 
vitae and Larch for posts and 
poles, fir and spruce for Christ¬ 
mas trees.
