Suggestions for growing Evergreens. 
Rooted Cuttings,very small Transplants and sedding Evergreens 
should be shaded and watered. for at least one year. One half shade 
is advised. Ground should be well worked and mellowed with Peat if 
very heavy. Large transpalnts can be Field rowed but should also be 
watered during dry weather if at all possible. All should be well 
cultivated to keep down the weeds and develope roots. Do not work 
the ground to late in the Fall as this will tend to keep the trees 
from hardéning up for Winter. A Mulch is very beneficial. 
Commercial Fertilizers and fresh Barn Yard Manures can be used but 
care should be taken not to touch the roots.

Manny of our Customers have asked us which trees are the best for 
Christmass Trees. The Trees used in this State,Minnesota and Upper 
Michigan are the Native Spruce, Bleck and White also. Norway. The 
Norway Spruce is not native to this locality but it does very well 
here and grows fast. 
Balsam Fir is the prefe red Tree due to its Fragrance. and 
Needle holding characteristics. Manny Localities use other Trees 
such as the Austrian, Scotch and Norway Pine, Junipers and Firs in 
variety. The Pine hold their needles very..well, stay green a long 
time and make very nice Xmass trees. 
The Bleck Spruce and Balsam Fir do very well in wet swampy 
places as well as on the high ground. The Varieties in the greatest
