4 THE DANIELS NURSERY 
DANNY SAYS:— 
Asleep at the switch? Don’t be caught that way for when the 
“srand scramble” comes, not even the boss knows what can be 
done. 

OUR LANDSCAPE SERVICES FOR 1944 
Through careful, conscientious, economical performance we have long enjoyed 
an enviable reputation for the furnishing of the following landscape services and 
materials: 
Landscape Design and Plans Tree Spraying 
Planting of Nursery Stock Lawn Building and Renovation 
Shrub Trimming Stone Walls and Walks 
Tree Trimming and Care Rockeries and Pools 
Tree Feeding Dirt, Peat and Fertilizers 
Just what we can offer our clients this season in the way of landscape and plant- 
ing service is still problematical. Our stocks and equipment are without equal—but 
just what our manpower situation will be is not certain at this early date. Many of 
our men have been able to find their places in the armed services and key war 
industries. We seem to be assured of enough men to maintain our nursery and our 
large (and for 1944 greatly increased) orchard, small fruit and vegetable production, 
and for a normal amount of planting for others. It seems apparent, however, that 
our services for maintenance and construction work will be somewhat curtailed. 
We will do the best we can. We hope our customers will call on us as in the 
past and we assure them that we will do everything in our power to give them 
whatever help they need. It is our patriotic duty, however, to give our food pro- 
duction first priority in our available manpower. Second will come planting of 
nursery stock, and third, our other services. 
Please remember this, though! We will greatly appreciate your business. We 
want it, so please let us know soon what you have in mind, and med do everything 
in our power to furnish you the services desired. 
“First come, first served,” will have to be our motto this year, sO we earnestly 
suggest that you consider your needs now. And please get your orders in as early 
as possible. We’ll do everything we can for you with the facilities we have at our 
command. 
N. B.—This is especially true where plan or design service is needed. Our 
“white collar” staff will be greatly reduced this year. 
DANNY SAYS: 
It’s not a home ’till it’s planted! ‘‘How’s about’? some productive fruit 
plants as ornamentals? 
i} 
: Fruit plants often work well into the ornamental planting. Goose- 
berries and currants may be used either in the informal border or 
for low, compact hedges. Red raspberries make a most attractive, taller hedge. Strawberries 
may may: be used as a low edging for the border or flanking a path. The cherries suitable 
to our Northwest climate may be used in place of a large shrub or small tree in the informal 
border. Plums may be used in the same way, allowing them more room, or used as small 
trees in the lawn—preferably to the side or rear. Apples, if allowed sufficient room, also 
may be used in the border but properly should be in the more open or lawn area because 
of their large ultimate size. The ‘‘Vest Pocket Orchard” apple tree is the ideal apple for 
the ordinary home grounds. .
