FLOWERING CHERRIES 
The lovely planting of these trees along the Potomac River Drive at Wash- 
ington, D. C., is the most notable collection of Oriental Cherries. The fame 
of these cherries has spread all over the U. S., and as they are hardy 
everywhere they should be largely planted. * 
Double Flowering pink to old rose blossoms. One of the 
Kwa nzan loveliest of the flowering cherries. Price, 4 ft. trees, $2.50. 

“THE USE OF FERTILIZERS” 
In all plantings be sure the hole is dug large enough to accommodate the roots without cramping or bending. 
Fill the hole with good top dirt and firm it hard. Water well. 
NEVER PUT FERTILIZER OR ANYTHING BUT GOOD SOIL IN THE HOLE AROUND THE ROOTS. 
Either partly rotted manure or high nitrogen fertilizers may be used as a side dressing at planting time if 
kept away from the base of the tree. If high nitrogen fertilizers are used, use only about one handful per 6 
ft. tree, (other trees use proportionately) spreading evenly around the outer branches at least 12 inches away 
from the trunk of the tree. For Berry Plants, etc., broadcast fertilizer evenly in the middle of the rows. 
Apply in fall or early spring before bloom.
