MARSHALL 

By careful selection and grafting Marshalls have developed the outstand— 
ing stock of ornamental evergreens of the entire West. 
During the past 30 years Marshalls have made many trips into the Black 
Hills, the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains and the North Woods,scout— 
ing for trees having characteristics adapting them to specific home and 
landscape uses. Marshalls have secured wood from hundreds of such trees 
for -oraftine . 
Each selection is made because of some superior quality of the mother 
tree—--shape, color of foliage, texture of foliage, etc. The matter of each 
one: tretadinine the general form for which selected without much  Sheataing 
later on, On the planter *s grounds, is important. 
GRAFTING INSURES UNIFORMITY 
Grafted varieties are much superior to stock grown from seed, which does 
not always follow true to the character and hardiness of the parent tree. 
Plant Marshall's grafted evergreens. 
Marshall's evergreens are Gill dug with a large ball of earth and are 
guaranteed to grow. 
For Foundation and Yard Planting 
Evergreens are the aristocrats of the plant world. They give 
dignity, charm, and all-year beauty to the home grounds. 
They are in a distinct class as ornamentals and there is no 
substitute for their many uses. The range of colors and forms 
available is truly wonderful. The charm and beauty of the home 
enhanced with a delightful evergreen foundation planting is irre- 
Ssistible, and gives a pleasant feeling of warmth and welcome. 
Fortunately, the evergreen belt extends from Alaska to the Guif 
and we in the plains states are extremely fortunate to have so 
many varieties adapted to this section. Certain Spruce, Fir, Pine 
and many Junipers are-easily grown here. 
For windbreaks, tall screens or hedges, for privacy, or for 
Specimen planting, the evergreéns are unmatched.
