For Field or Yard Fence 
A3325—Rosa Multiflora grows vigorously in even the 
poorer soils, requires little ground space (its final height 
and spread is 6 to 8 feet), has no spreading roots to rob 
adjoining crops, does not “sucker” nor spread from seed. 
It forms a dense, thorny barrier that will stop any live- 
stock excepting an occasional “breachy” sow. Planted as 
yard hedge, it stops children, dogs, bicycles, yet is a thing 
of beauty, having loads of small white single roses fol- 
lowed by masses of red berries that last through the 
winter. In addition, it provides food and protection for 
birds and small game. 
You can use it as a pasture divider, contour guide, snow stop, 
and firebreak (there is no grassy growth beneath its branches). 
Its deep, fibrous roots make it ideal for erosion control. 
This plant has probably received as much publicity as any. 
We do not recommend it for planting in large quantities north 
of central Ia. and Neb., unless there are established plantings 
in your area. However, we suggest that you try at least a 
dozen on your own land and see what it will do for you. 
Set 18 inches apart. Beware of the tiny little “darning 
needle’’-sized plants that are being quite widely offered. You 
are apt to take a terrific loss on such a small grade of plants. 
We ship heavy sizes only. Here are our prices:

4.00 FT Pine, on pee 
A good windbreak which will protect the home and feed 
lot from winter winds, is easy and inexpen- 
sive to plant and practically takes 
care of itself. 
Besides, it is a source of firewood, lumber, and posts, 
and is also a never-ending satisfaction in having some- 
thing green and cooling right at hand for both man and 
animal. Gurney’s have been supplying the great North- 
west with hardy windbreak trees for 3 generations. 
The drawing above is typical protection for Northwest 
winter winds. Trees for each row can be chosen according 
to taste or needs, but generally low trees on the outside, 
growing tall to about % way back, and then low again, is 
most practical. Evergreens are best on the inside rows. 
Here are suggestions:

ae BASY WAY TO PLANT 
Here’s a quick, easy way to plant windbreak trees. First 
take a walking plow, throw out a deep furrow along the 
row of trees to be planted. (Plow fast enough so as to 
throw dirt well out of furrow.) Second, put each individual 
tree against the straight edge of the furrow, then throw 
the loose dirt back in over the roots. Pack firmly with the 
feet. CUT ALL SEEDLINGS OR TREES BACK TO LESS 
THAN HALF THEIR HEIGHT AS SOON AS PLANTED 
(except Evergreens, which require no pruning). Use the 
cultivator plenty the first two summers.

HOW TO PLANT 
About 1 ft. apart is the usual distance, 
except barberry usually is set 18 in. apart, 
and Honeysuckle and Spirea Van Houttei 
usually are set 2% to 3 ft. apart. 
Some like to stagger the planting in zig- 
zag lines to make hedge tighter but straight 
line is just as good.
