PLANTING SUGGESTIONS 
We are interested in your success with every tree or plant we send out; we exercise the greatest 
eare to place every item in the hands of our customers in the best possible condition, and in order to 
turnish some precautions and provide for complete satisfaction, we give a few hints on such points 
as are most essential. 
TIME TO PLANT—Trees and plants usually become dormant about the Ist of November, and 
may be planted throughout the fall, winter and spring months. Fall and winter planting is preferred 
for the reason that the roots become established during the winter months, and are ready to make a 
vigorous growth when warm weather begins. However, excellent results are obtained with early 
spring planting. 
CARE OF TREES ON ARRIVAL—Unless you are prepared to plant them immediately upon 
arrival, dig a trench large enough to accommodate the roots; cut the bottom string, and spread the 
roots carefully, firming the soil about them. DO NOT PERMIT THE ROOTS TO DRY OUT OR 
FREEZE. 
PREPARING TREES FOR PLANTING—Don’t fail to cut the top back (see illustration). This 
ig necessary in order to balance the top with the loss of roots which always takes place when a tree 
is dug from the nursery. Trim each root back about one-half inch or so with a sharp knife, and cut 
off all broken or bruised roots. 
PLANTING—Dig the hole larger than is necessary to admit all the roots in their natural posi- 
tion; then having the tree pruned as directed, hold it in an upright position, and shovel the soil, 
carefully putting the finest and best dirt from the surface in among the roots, bringing every root 
in contact with the soil, firming gently with the foot. The tree should be planted about the same 
depth it was in the nursery row; this may be determined by the change of color in the bark. 
Commercial and natural fertilizers are valuable when properly used. Do not let strong fertilizers 
come in direct contact with the bare roots.
