SAFE. FALL 
PLANTING 

It is an enormous help to a tree or shrub to be 
in the ground all winter ready for an early 
spring start—and so easy to give that help by 
watching a few simple points: 
J New plantings need 
* watering for autumn 
root-growth. Water freely 
up until ground freezes. 
2 Time of planting is 
* important: Ever- 
greens best from now to 
early October (they need 
late Fall for root growth) 
—deciduous plants from 
October to frost — after 
leaves turn color). 
3 A very few plants 
e are best moved only 
in Spring when sap is run- 
ning. Fall planting of 
these can be done: — (a) 
By digging with an earth 
ball. (b) By using small 
sizes only. (Birch and 
Magnolia are typical of 
this small group.) 
4 Very small ever- 
green seedlings are 
likely to frost-heave. Eas- 
ily overcome: — Simply 
strew a thin muich of salt ~ 
hay in the beds.
