TRANSPORTATION. We do not pay transportation charges. We ship either by parcel post, express or freight, in the manner which will be most economical for you con- sistent with the nature of the material you have ordered. In the case of parcel post, our practice is to ship C. O. D. for the amount of the postage. The size of the package we can send in this manner is limited by Government regulations. Fruit Trees, Evergreens, Large Shrubs and Shade Trees have to be shipped by freight or by express. We find, occasionally, a customer who objects to the C. O. D. feature concerned with shipments by mail. Where this feeling exists we should be advised at the time

the order is placed.

CLAIMS. Our responsibility ceases when your order has been received by you in good condition. ‘Technically it ceases when your goods have been delivered to the carrier in good condition. If any stock is received by you and found to be unsatisfactory through any fault of ours this fact should be brought to our immediate attention. We must insist that this be done within five days after receipt. Should you receive a shipment in bad order, the result of its transportation, be sure to bring this to the attention of the Carrier’s agent and to secure the bad order receipt

with which to substantiate the claim you will make.

Leap Mold Prat and Fine Needles

Most of the native plants grow -naturally in a soil com- posed largely of leaf mold peat. The Orchids, Arbutus and the acid-loving plants are fond of a soil composed of de- composing pine needles. We have so many calls for these materials that we are offering them in two-bushels bags. A combination of the two, the peat mixed into the soil to a depth of several inches, with the pine needles used as a mulch on the surface, will produce a soil condition ad- mirably suited for the Orchids and for Arbutus.

LEAF MOLD PEAT. This is a superior grade of peat which we have here at Putney. The bed is very old, the disintegration so complete that the peat is readily incorporated into the soil existing in a wild garden. It can be mixed or used as a mulch. We recommend mixing it to a depth of several inches as it is decidedly retentive of moisture, supplies considerable nourishment and will be found extremely helpful in growing the native plants.

Price $2.00 per two-bushel bag, $8.50 per 5 bags.

As a mulch around Arbutus Plants and

PINE NEEDLES. in the planting of the Orchids, particularly Cypripedium Acaule, Pine Needles will be of great help. We will send

you material which is particularly decomposed and ideal

for the purpose intended. Price $1.50 per two-bushel

bag, $6.50 per 5 bags.

VERMONT BASKETS

Baskets are most useful at all times. The ones that we offer are handmade here in Putney of

Vermont Ash and Oak which will last for years. Any number of uses suggest themselves for them,

such as shopping, for gifts, cut flowers, for picking fruit and berries, for taking a pie or cake to the

church dinner, or for putting up a delicious lunch for an automobile trip. There are specially made shapes and sizes for these and a hundred other uses.

Special discounts given on orders received from churches, charitable associations and garden clubs for resale at bazaars and fairs. We do not have the space here for full description and prices,

PIONEERING WITH FRUITS AND BERRIES

By GEORGE D. AIKEN. $2.00 postpaid

Here is a companion to Pioneering with Wildflowers. For some time Mr. Aiken has felt the need for such a book. So many letters are received from patrons who are starting small orchards, berry fields, who are buying farms or summer homes and who are unable to get, under one cover, the information which they need to allow them to plant these trees and plants properly.

RED RASPBERRIES

RASPBERRY PLANTS

Not only are Raspberries one of the most delicious of all fruits for home use, but they are also one of the safest to plant commercially. In our twenty years of growing Raspberries there has never been a time but what all we produced could be sold.

Plant on good, well-drained soil, on a slope, if possible, and cultivate freely. Fertilize with chemicals and wood ge rather than manure. Of the red varieties about 2,400

© 3,000 plants per acre are required, planted two and one- half to three feet apart in rows six feet apart. The black and purple varieties, planted three feet apart in rows seven feet apart, take about 2,000 plants per acre.

COLUMBIAN (Purple). This is the standard purple raspberry. fakes no sucker plants but roots from the tips. With good conditions extremely heavy yields are obtained. Splendid for canning. $1.00 per 12, $1.75 per 25, $5.00 per 100, $35.00 per 1,000.

LATHAM (Red). The leading commercial variety of the country. Erect canes, very hardy, a heavy yielder, a good shipper. Fair quality. 75¢ per 12, $1.50 per 25, $4.50 per 100, $35.00 per 1,000.

NEWBURGH (Red). This has proven itself to be one of the heaviest yielding and the hardiest of all raspber- ries. Newburgh bears very heavy crops of immense berries, ripening in mid-season. Fruit is of good quality and very firm, making it a shipping raspberry. Very re- sistant to disease. The canes are medium height. $1.50 per 25, $5.00 per 100, $35.00 per 1,000.

PLUM FARMER (Black). One of the finest black-cap Faspberries ripening early in the season. Tip-plants 75c per 12, $1.50 per 25, $5.00 per 100, $35.00 per 1,000.

TAYLOR. A new and extremely delicious raspberry of highest quality. Huge berries throughout the season. Earlier than Latham. $1.50 per 25, $5.00 per 100, $40.00 per 1,000.

ASPARAGUS MARY WASHINGTON. This variety has superseded

practically all other kinds. Very large and rust resistant. 1 yr. No. 1—60c per 25, $1.50 per 100, $10.00 per 1,000. 2 yr. No. 1—75c per 25, $2.00 per 100, $15.00 per 1,000.

RHUBARB

EARLY SCARLET or STRAWBERRY RHUBARB. 15e each, $1.00 per 10, $8.00 per 100.

BLACKBERRY PLANTS

Culture same as for Raspberries. Avoid frosty locations, although Snyder has withstood 35 below zero and borne crops.

SNYDER. A safe variety to plant for home or market. Upright grower. Fruit large and of good quality if allowed to ripen fully on the bushes. $1.50 per 25, $4.00 per 100, $30.00 per 1,000.

ELDORADO. The finest quality blackberry and very hardy. Almost lost to cultivation for several years, but we have a small stock to offer at last. $1.50 per 12, $2.50 per 25.

STRAWBERRY PLANTS

A good bed of strawberries will reduce the living expenses tremendously. They should be planted on rich soil that has been plowed a year previous. Do not fertilize with wood ashes or any material containing lime. Most varieties are planted eighteen inches apart in rows four feet apart.

Everbearing kinds produce more berries if planted in hills and not allowed to make plants.

POTGROWN STRAWBERRY PLANTS

Many people think that best results are obtained by planting potgrown Strawberry plants in August and Septem- ber, as these plants will bear a fairly good crop the follow- ing season. We will have available for delivery in August and September, 1941, potgrown plants of leading varieties.

BERRY is a patented variety, originating here at the nurseries: The purchase of plants entitles you to grow as many as you wish for your own planting. Before growing plants to sell or otherwise dispose of, arrange- ments must be made with us.

Finest of the FALL BEARING STRAWBERRIES we have ever grown.

The plants are extremely vigorous and exceptionally free from disease.

The fruit is large, firm, very bright in color and of superior quality. A splendid berry for the market or for home consumption. In the production of both plants and berries we have found it superior to Mastodon or to any other everbearing strawberry we have grown.

Excellent reports of GREEN MOUNTAIN have been had from other sections of the country. Evidently GREEN MOUNTAIN prefers a heavy soil to one which is light and sandy. The Summer season is late. This last Summer we picked berries fully ten days after the last of the Howard 17 were gone. The Fall crop is also late, averaging from September 20th to November Ist. The largest crop is borne the second Fall.

For a bumper FALL CROP keep the blossoms picked until August Ist. After harvesting two Fall crops it is our custom to let the plants produce a Summer crop the third season,

SUGAR MAPLE

The ideal shade tree. In planting sugar maple you plant for the future as well as the present, since these trees grow more beautiful each year for generations. Gorgeous orange and yellow Autumn coloring. Ideally suited for planting along country lanes and driveways or to shade old-fashioned Colonial or Cape Cod houses. Medium fast growing.

For sizes and prices see “Shade Trees.”

AMERICAN HEMLOCK

The most graceful and beautiful of Northern evergreens.

Plant them in masses with white birch and shadblow as a background for your evergreen planting or wild garden. They are beautiful, too, in the winter garden, laden with snow and hung with tiny nutbrown cones.

Hemlock makes the most beautiful and enduring of evergreen hedges. It may be clipped to any height from three feet to ten feet and makes a solid impenetrable wall of green.

For sizes and prices see “Evergreens.”

NORTHERN CANOE BIRCH

Northern New England is long remembered for the gleaming white trunks of SUGAR MAPLE the paper birches. Backed by emerald masses of hemlock and fringing the maple groves as they clamber up and down over the hills, they suggest to us the many places on our own grounds where they would make a lovely picture. Plant them in the wild garden or against dark evergreens. Plant them along a tiny stream or by a pool where their white trunks will be reflected in the water; or, if you have a dull fence corner, plant a clump of three-trunk birches and transform it straight- away into a garden.
