den. These straight husky plants of mine are ideal 
wherever you want a tall screen that grows F-A-S-T. 
Trees may eventually become 40 feet high, but 
spread out only 5 or 6 feet at the widest part (just 
like the ones in the above picture). Plant ‘em closer 
together or farther apart, according to your own par- 
ticular needs. | INSPECT EVERY TREE BEFORE 
SHIPPING. You'll get rugged sturdy trees from me 
because I’ve actually grown ’em up to 6 feet high 
right here in the nursery before I dig and ship to you.

system... straight trunk .. . all around vigor and

GINKGO ... The Ginkgo is the most unusual and in- 
teresting tree in existence. Has very open angular 
form; leaves curiously fan-shaped, deep green. Best

not go on this tree and will not even crawl under it. 
In the Orient, it is planted around Religious buildings 
and public areas because of this belief. Grows well
