“half alive’? Many of these “Half 
Alive’ trees grow and finally make 
fairly good trees, but they would make 
good trees 2- or 38 years sooner if the 
Delicnte Roots Retained all the Vigor 
they had: when lifted from the ground, 
“Full of Life.’ Stark Bro’s great care 
in Preventing Exposure Through Every 
Step of the Digging and Shipping, and 
finally the Stark packing—the “Round 
the World Pack’—Brings your Stark 
Trees to you "Full of Life,” so they will 
give you 2 or 8 extra crops, will come 
into hearing younger, will make bigger
