HOW TO PLANT TREES

Plant from December to the end of February. Never allow roots to be exposed to sunshine or wind; heel them in or keep covered with a wet sack, and only uncover as needed.

Trim all broken or bruised roots with a sharp knife and set the tree in hole about as deep as it grew in nursery, pre- ferably a little deeper rather than too shallow.

Fill in hole with top soil. If any fertilizer is used at all, use only a small amount of bone meal, well mixed with the soil. Any cultivated crop may be grown between the trees.

All correspondence answered the same day as received.
