Ornaments for Beauty 

Practically 
every family ee 
has pride in the : 
appearance of the home grounds. Selection of trees, 
shrubs, evergreens, vines and flowering plants that 
are adapted and their use in an orderly manner 
make it possible for practically everyone to have 
the pleasure of homes with attractive surroundings. 
Whether it be additions to the home _ lanscape 
by degrees or complete plantings, there is no invest- 
ment that can be made in home improvement that 
is as reasonable in proportion.. Structural improve- 
ments and home furnishings of course are essential, 
but the investment for landscaping is the only one 
in which the per dollar value will increase instead 
of depreciate. 
SHRUBS 
For Flowers and Foliage 
The planting sizes of the different varieties list- 
ed here are described by height. We wish to stress 
the fact that height is given for stock that has been 
transplanted one or more times and has a heavy, well 
developed root system and well branched top. This 
stock should not be confused with light grades of 
easily propagated stock that is often featured by 
mail at low prices. 
Numbers following names represent approximate 
height at maturity under average normal conditions.
