Location
Our nurseries occupy 200 acres of rich rolling farm land at Glen View, IIl., seventeen miles northwest of Chicago, a forty-five minute ride on the C., M. & St. P. R. R.
Shipping Facilities Being a suburb of Chicago, the greatest rail-
way terminus in America, we can assure direct routing and prompt delivery.
Quality
Our land is kept thoroughly fertilized and care- fully cultivated during the entire growing season.
We plant farther apart, fertilize more fre- quently, and transplant oftener than the average nursery because our business is founded on quality. That is why we produce the very finest stock—plants that are more sturdy, larger and bet- ter shaped, with plumper branches and completer root systems than those offered by the ordinary nursery and intended to sell in a price competition.
Large Specimens
Frequent reference will be found to extra large specimens which we will be able to furnish. This affords an unusual opportunity to secure matured plants, by means of which immediate results may be obtained.
Extensive Assortment
Our list is uncommonly large and contains more than 900 different varieties of trees, shrubs, vines, evergreens and old-fashioned perennials.
We carry such a‘large variety because it en- ables us to fill all orders from our own stock, no matter how many varieties are specified—thus avoiding for our patrons the uncertainty and in- convenience of applying to several nurseries for portions of such orders.
Tested Varieties
Every one of the varieties which we list has been tested and found perfectly hardy in north- ern Illinois. We have in this manner been able to secure a large number of valuable additions to the sorts usually offered in the ordinary nursery.
INTRODUCTORY
We will furnish fifty plants of same kind at
Prices
hundred rates—five at ten rates. In listing our stock, we have stated exact sizes and price for each size, thus making it convenient for the pur- chaser to choose the specimen that exactly meets his requirements.
Measurement of Trees and Shrubs
All plants are measured as they stand in the nursery before digging. Measurements for height are taken from the ground to the top of the plant. In trailing plants the length of the branches is taken instead of the height. Measurements for caliper of trees are taken above the ground a distance equal to the diameter of the tree.
Guarantee and Planting
The experience, as well as reputation of Swain Nelson, & Sons Company, covering two genera- tions, is the purchaser’s surest guarantee of good values and square treatment.
For a reasonable additional charge we will plant and warrant all goods ordered from us. We will also design the scheme of planting, will arrange the grouping so as to secure the most harmonious effects and produce most pleasing con- trasts of color and form. We send our expert gardeners to prepare the \ground and plant the stock in a correct and scientific manner.
Packing
All goods are packed in the most careful man- ner, thus avoiding risk of damage if delayed in transit. The only charges for packing are for the cost of materials used.
State Inspection
Our nursery is inspected annually by the State Entomologist, and a copy of the certificate of the last inspection is sent with each shipment.
Errors or Omissions
We will adjust all mistakes in the execution of orders if notified immediately upon receipt of goods.

DIRECTIONS FOR PRUNING AND PLANTING
Preparation of Ground
HE first essential to successful planting is fe a thorough preparation of the ground, either
by deep trenching or by digging large holes, refilling them with good fertile soil, and having them well-drained.
Selection
The second essential is the selection of well grown trees, and- shrubs, free from any blemish or weakness, and with an abundance of fibrous roots. Granted the above conditions large trees may be transplanted as successfully as small ones, and they will produce shade and ornament at once, instead of many years later, as is the case with ordinary nursery trees.
Planting
Before setting the tree all bruised or broken roots should be cut back to the sound wood with a sharp knife. The tops should be pruned in proportion to the roots that have been cut.
Our trees usually need very little pruning and our shrubs none at all.
The plant should be set not more than two inches deeper than it stood in the nursery, as indicated by the soil mark on the trunk. The roots should be spread out in their natural posi- tions, and as the fine soil is covered over them it should be tamped down solid and rammed be- tween the roots, making sure that no air spaces are left under the tree.
Watering
Water at time of planting only in case the soil is dry. Pour sufficient water into the hole after it is two-thirds full to thoroughly moisten the soil, Then finish filling the hole and planting the tree.
Loosen the wires which hold the labels to pre- :
vent future injury to the bark.
allowing the surplus water to disappear. |
Care After Planting
To obtain the best results it is necessary to give the tree good care for a year or two after plant- ing. When the warm weather sets in the tree should be mulched, that is, fresh manure, about four inches thick, ’ should be spread around the tree to hold the moisture in the earth. When the weather becomes very dry the tree should be watered thoroughly every two weeks, and the soil about it kept loose by hoeing, as in a corn field.
Pruning
To the repeated inquiry as to the best time and method of pruning deciduous trees and shrubs, it may be answered, that no single rule can be laid down that will apply to all cases. Shrubs, like trees, are pruned for different purposes, and what is good practice in one case-may be ruinous in another. A tree for the lawn requires differ- ent treatment from an avenue tree, and the rule for pruning an apple tree to induce an abundant yield of the best fruit would not apply to another tree where shade or ornament is desired.
For general purposes, therefore, neither trees nor shrubs should ever be cut back so far as to im- pair their vigor nor should they be pruned so as to destroy their natural outlines. They should rather have the weak shoots thinned out and their strong ones pruned cautiously so as to de- velop their best form.
Shrubs like Spireza Van Houttei, which bloom early on wood of the previous year, where it is desired to secure abundant flowers, should not be pruned in autumn or early Spring, but imme- diately after the blooming season.
Shrubs that bloom late on wood of the cur- rent year, such as hydrangeas, roses, etc., should be pruned after the leaves fall in autumn or be- fore they start in early spring.

Why Wait a Lifetime to Enjoy Your Trees ana Shrubs?
There was a time when it took a generation to get any sort of mature effect from trees and shrubs platted on grounds of homes and estates, small or large. No other way existed for owners who wanted beautiful outdoor surroundings. After waiting fifteen to twenty years the plants that survived assumed some sem- blance of the real beauty and character wanted. But think of the trouble it took, the failures, and the enjoyment lost while waiting.
Home is Made Attractive at Once with Nelson’s Trees and Shrubs
Now it is possible to have trees and shrubs that will make immediate display. Some of our big and stately trees at our Glen View Nurseries are twenty-five years old, and our shrubs will bloom and be effective at once. All have been peifectly trained, pruned and matured, and transplanted repeatedly— moving will not even check their growth. Such trees and shrubs require years of waiting and care on our part. We save you those years and produce the choicest specimens of deciduous and evergreen trees and shrubs.
‘*Landscapes Without Waiting”’ if You Live within 500 Miles
We nave every facility for the complete execution of large plantings within this radius. Our book “Landscapes Without Waiting,’ unusual in text and illustrations, and costing one dollar acopy to pro- duce, will be sent free to those who contemplate planting soon, within 500 miles of Chicago. We must request 50 cents for it from persons further away, rebated on first order. Write us for the book today.
