TREES for Shade aud Geauty 
HADE and ornamental trees are indispensable in any community or home-ground 
planting. They will alter the barren appearance of a new home, add life to vacant 
corners of the property, and as they mature, provide pleasant areas where sun and 
shadow meet. To enjoy these advantages, it is important to remember that all trees 
must be planted either in early spring before the leaves appear, or late in fall after the 
leaves have fallen, for then the weather is cool and the root system active. 
The Shade Trees and large Franklinia listed on this page are not available for 
orders that require packing and shipping by rail, unless otherwise indicated. We 
list them for the benefit of our local patrons who may wish to call at the Nursery 
for them or have them delivered by truck if practical and economical.
