TO OLD CUSTOMERS.
We wish to hear from every customer who has honored us with an order. No effort will bespared to merit a continuance of your pat- ronage, and we shall always strive to make your dealings with us both pleasant and profitable.
SHIPPING.
We make shipments by railroad from Green Bay, Wis., reaching all points in the west at the same rates of freight as is charged from Chicago, and usually making better time. ‘To points east and south of Chicago the rates are a trifle more than from Chicago, and about two days longer time on the road.
Shipments usually go safely by freight.
The cost is considerably less on packages weighing fifty pounds or more, but on smaller packages, the charges by express are but little if any more than by freight.
Season for Shipping. Our shipping season—that is to com- mence digging and shipping—usualiy begins about April 15th, and continues until June Ist.
Early Shipment can be made from stock in our frost-proof cellars. By confining orders to stock marked with a (*) we can ship at any time directed until our supply is exhausted. Orders for winter shipments are packed in paper-lined packages, and every possible pre- caution taken to have the plants go through safely. Express or mail is safest for winter shipments.
Transportation. In furnishing trees, etc., at the prices in this list we wish it distinetly understood that we cannot be responsible for accidents of transportation. Ail artic:es after leaving the Nursery in good condition, are entirely at the risk of the purchaser. Except in cases of accidents, or gross carelessness, our packages wili endure the longest journey safely.
Under ordinary circumstances, customers ought to receive their oods in from one to two weeks (when going out of this state) from ate of shipment. One hundred miles per day is about the average
movements of freight, and one day for each transfer from oneroad to another.
Executing Orders. We endeavor to execute all orders promptly and as nearly as possible in rotation as received. The shipping sea-
AVERGREEN, WISCONSIN. 3
son brings with it an unusua! number of items to be looked after: not- withstanding we have a largely increased force of men, orders ave li- able to be delayed occasionaly, but not often.
Early Orders are always desirable. In the eariy part of the season we can supply all of the varieties named on our list, but as ihe season adyances some varieties become exhausted.
Substitutions. Incases where varieties or sizes are ordered that we have sold out, UNLESS OTHERWISE INSTRUCTED, We Will send that which will fill their places as nearly as possible.
Club Orders. If several club together in one order, and have all shipped in one box, they will make considerable saving in freight,: and by having the trees bulked in one lot, and sent to one person who will divide them up, a great saving can be made by getting the trees at 1,000 or 10,000 rates.
Complaints. Occasionally errers occur in the transaction of the thousands of details incidental to our business, but we are always ready to rectify them on proper proof, but must be informed just what the trouble is within the limited time printed on invoices sent, If you ever have occasion to complain, always state the case plainly, giving the date when the order was sent, number of order, the amoutt sent, and what was ordered,
TERMS.
Invariably cash or satisfactory security before shipment of stock.
No order sent C. O. D. unless the order amounts to $5.00 or more, and one half the amount of the order be deposited with your express agent, and his receipt for the deposit sent with the order.
Express Purchasing Agency. One of the most satisfactory methods of getting small lots of trees or plantsis to have the express company yurchase them for you,
Make out a list of the trees, etc. you want, with prices annexed, hand it with the money to your express agent ana tell him to have the American Express Co. at Green Bay, Wis., purchase them for you, when the goods arrive, examine them and ifthere is anything short tell him to pay for what you get. It will cost you nothing except the express charges on the goods.

sae LARGE TREES. FOR PARK AND STREET PLANTING.
My trade in large size trees is very heavy. There isa largedemandfrom all sections for large trees for Parks and ‘Street planting, We have made heavy ship- ments to Southwestern Kansas and Southern Virginia, and many of the cities and towns near home have purchased large numbers of them. By far the cheapest and best way is to get them by the carload. Freight is muchless, andthe trees go through without damage. and I make lower prices when packed in acar. Whennot paeked in a car they are bundledin bales weighing from100 to 400 lbs. with moss and burilaps on the roots, and the bundles covered with strawor boughs. Before packing the tops are nearly allcut away ready to plant.
The trees wlll range from 7 to 15 feet high before cutting back for planting, but are graded by the sizes at 3 to 6 inches above the ground.

FRUIT TREES AND PLANTS.
Only the most hardy varieties of fruits can endure the rigors of our Northwest- ern winters. Thousands of Eastern and Southern trees are sold every yearto the planters of the Northwest, and every winter as many thousands are killed. Many are killed the first winter, some live one or two years, very few three or four years, and on an average not more than one in a hundred live to give a peck offruit. Yet when these trees are first received from the nursery they give the best of satisfac- tion. Thcy are straight, thrifty, healthfuland handsome. In the rich soiland warm vigorous climate of the Eastand South, larger trees can be grown in two years than Iccn grow in four years. When my trees are placed along side of these Southern trees, mine are called culls and theirs first-class;in three years mine are called first-class and theirs dead trees, although both may bethe same variety of fruit. Theirs in the nursery made arapid growth of soft wood unable to standthe hard freezing and thawing, while mine make aslower and harder growth, which will stand the severe Northern winters.

RHODODENDRONS.
I have imported from Europe the following named sorts. 3 and 4 years, healthy, strong and of the colors indicated.
Rhodendrons do well in almost all situations, provided the soil is deep, cool and moist. Where these conditions do not exist naturally, they may be produced by digging out the soil four feet deep, filling in two feet with stones, sticks and rubbish, and finishing with good, light soil. The sortsoffered are among the hardiest of all, standing our winters very well. It is, however, time well spent to fill in forest leaves about the plants for the winter. It keeps frost out of the ground. breaks the wind, and keeps the sun from the foliage, all of which benefits the plants at that
They are all grafted
period.
_ Ihave only a small number of each variety. If any variety is exhausted, orders will be filled with a color the nearest I have. e

STANDARD SORTS IN GOOD SUPPLY. Prices are by mail, post paid.
Many of the following can be supplied in ten pound lots. Prices given on application. Will make up ten cent packets of any of the following, when desired.
Damping-Off is one of the most serious obstacles to success, in growing Ever- greens from seeds, and in this particular thereis agreat difference in the varieties.
Shade is necessary for nearly ail varieties. Theheat of the sun would soon wilt them down. As soon as the sun shines hot and the soil is very moist and the seed- lings are closely covered, the damping-off is even worse. We have had whole beds consisting of hundreds of thousands of plants go downin a single afternoon. What they need is shade that keeps the sun off and still gives the plants plenty of air.

CHRISTMAS TREES AND DECORATIONS.
Do you want Xmas trees? Ifso, get them from the source of supply. If you have ever noticed that the trees ordinarily offered for sale on the market, you have observed the pale, sickly, faded look they have. We are where wecan get the pest of the stock, and send out only the ‘‘very best.”’
For several years we have had an Xmas Tree and Decoration Department, notasamakeshi*. but asa regular branch of our nursery business, and take pride in sending out only stock that may help to maintain and increase our trade. For three or four years we have been sending out the native Blue Spruce, and they give better satisfaction than any other tree we send out. The branches are stiff and very strong, capable of supporting a heavy weight of gifts. They are often covered with a profusion of cones, adding greatly to their beauty.
Some people haye become so accustomed to seeing the Balsam Fir used as an Xmas tree that they are loth to believe anything else can be used. We will furnish the Balsam Fir to customers when ordered.

EVERGREEN BOUGHS.
Yor decorating halls, streets, ete., for fairs, Fourth of July and other public occasions.
We have made a business for several years of furnishing boughs of several vari- eties of evergreens for decorating halls and streets for public occasions.
Prices.—We cut the boughs well furnished with leaves, from 12 to 30 inches in length, tie them in bundles weighing from 50 to 75 lbs., and furnish them at one dol- lar per bundle, f. o. b. here.
Carloads.—It is not uncommon fora carload to be used on some great occasions. Four years ago St. Louis used two carloads from here. Kansas City used a car- load. We supplied the Corn Palace at Sioux City a carload last season, and expect to furnish several towns with carloads the coming summer. My price is Seventy Five Dollars for a carload, f.o0.b. Wegetabout 1500 bundles in a carload, or about ten or twelve thousand pounds.
Varieties.—Arbor Vite and Spruce are bestadapted for outside decorations but for ornamenting halls, Balsam Fir, White Pine and Hemlock are the most de- sirable, because of the delightful and refreshing balsamic aroma that is given off,
relieving the sense of oppressive heat and foul air that is often feit in closely pack- ed halls. d
Evergreen Show Trees.—Large evergreens 6to 8 feet high, for planting in tubs to set outside at the doors of halls, hotels, restaurants, etc., are furnished at 50 cents per tree, of Several varieties.
These are dug with enough roots to enable them to stand secure ina tub. It is not expected that they will grow, butif well watered they willremainfresh and green for several months. They are tiedin bundles with wet moss or straw over the roots to keep them fresh.
22 EVERGREEN, NURSERIES,
MISCELLANEOUS.
Cone Scales for Consumption and Catarrh.—We are occasionally asked for Done Scales of Balsam Fir. Itis claimed that a small quanity of these scales put loosely in a sack and placed upon the pillow at night, is of great benefit to those suffering from diseases of the throat andlungs. The balsamic aroma given out has a marked healing and soothing effect. This year we have saved these cone scales when cleaning out seed, and will furnish them to those wanting at: By express, per bushel, 75c.; by mail, per pound, 25c. (A bushel weighs about 12 pounds.)
To Prevent Moths.—Many persons scatter Arbor Vite Cones insmall sacks of fhin cloth, through their chests and among their robes and furs. The moth-miller will not stay where she gets the scent from Arbor Vite Cones. They are just as >ffective as tobacco and much more pleasant. Iam saving the cones when thrash- ing out seeds this season, and will furnish them at the following prices: By express, per bushel, 50c; by mail, per pound, 20c.
These Cones and Cone Scales can be packed and shipped with Trees and Seeds shen desired.
White Pine and Balsam Fir Twigs and needles are oftencalled for, wanted pecause of their pleasant aroma, for pillows, cushions, ornamental work, etc. The tips of the twigs clipped with their needles allon, the day they are shipped, and furnished per 100 ib, for $2.50.

EVERGREEN HEDGES.
Evergreen Hedges are getting to be very popular throughout the country, as they justly should. Nothing adds more to the beauty of a home than a tastefully trimmed Evergreen Hedge in front of the lawn, and a taller growing screen or hedge, dividing the lawn from neigh- bors or screening from view the back yard.
Probably, all things considered, there is no tree that equals the American Arbor Vitae for this purpose. It will bear the shears more patiently than any other evergreen we have. It may be plashed down and made so dense and solid that a chicken or a dog cannot get through it; and yet its very lowermost branches will retain their freshness and vigor for a very long period. By keeping the hedge cut down, it may be dwarfed to any height and spread desired, making the best tree for cemetery pianting.
Its name, ‘‘Arbor Vitae” (Tree of Life) is no misnomer, as there is no evergreen more tenacious of life.
It is so very easy to grow and handle, and can be so safely trans-
planted in any soil and climate, and is so little affected by the ex- tremes of dry and wet seasons, that it is a matter of surprise that Nur- serymen should hold it at such high prices.
We have prepared ourselves to meet this growing demand, with a large stock of these trees, both seedlings and transplanted, and are annually pines a large amount of the seed, and transplanting the seedlings by the hundreds of thousands. By reference to the list it will be seen that we have put cur pricesso low that any man can afford to plant an Evergreen Hedge.
The only objection we have ever heard urged against the ArborVitae for hedges, is that the foliage turns to a greenish brown color during the winter months. QOnthis account many persons prefer the Nor- way Spruce, which retains its fresh, green color, pretty well during the cold months. While the Norway Spruce possesses many qualities that recommend it as a hedge plant, it has one very objectionable fea- ture. After the hedge has stood for some twenty or thirty years, and has been annua!ly sheared to keep it within the bounds of hedges, the lower branches begin to die out, which greatiy mars its beauty and value as a hedge;
The best sizes for planting hedges are 8 to 12 ‘and 12 to 18 inches. These may be set out in single rows, about 8 to 10 inches apart, or in alternate double rows, about 12 to 15 inches apart, and the trees about the same distance apart in the rows. ‘Phe ground should be well pul- verized and the plants set pretty deep—some deeper than they stood in the nursery, Pour water about them profuseiy; and if the roots are dipped in muddy water and then brushed on the ground to cause tne soil to adhere to the fibers, they will be better. As soon as plant- ed mulch nearly to the tops with straw, and clip the ends of al long and straggling branches.
if seediings are planted, the tops may be nearly covered with the straw mulching, or, which is better. shade the plants from the sun. There is no necessity for shading, only for one year; but the mulehing may be continued fer years, the longer the better.
In times of very dry weather the hedge should be watered thor- oughly every evening.
24 EVERGREEN NURSERIES,
ROCKY Mountain Yellow Pine.
Pinus Ponderosa, var. Scopulorum, Englem.
We have been for several years giving this pine a thorough trial in our Nursery, and are fully convinced thatitis one of the best Pines for planting, particularly in the dry regions of the West.
The tree as described by those who have seenitis talland medium size. The branches grow somewhat upright, giving it the appearance of tall spires, or tall trees of Lombardy Poplar, when growing ata distance. Theleaves are large and coarse, slightly twisted, larger and coarser than Scotch Pine, usually about the size of Austrian Pine. Sometimes there aré three leaves ina sheath, and some- times only two, usually mixedon the tree. Sometimes we find a tree in which nearly all the leaves are found in threes, and again, others nearly all in twos.
It is very easy to grow from seed, but the seeds are difficult to obtain and ex- pensive. It grows rapidly andseems tobe absolutely drought proof, and will Stand any amount of freezing apparently. Ours in the Nursery the past winter Stood in the open ground, fully exposed, with the thermometer from zero down to twenty below nearly every day for two months, and came out in the Spring looking brighter and fresher than ever.
It is a very rapid growing tree, growing fully as rapidly as the Scotch Pine, and apparently, the dryer the soil and atmosphere the faster it grows. The young Seedlings havea most remarkable development ofroots, asmuch aheadof the seedlings of the New Mexican Pinyon Pine as the Pinyon is ahead of the common White Pine. Ina few weeks after the little seedlings have come up and got start- ed they have roots from ten to fifteen inches long running straight down into the ground, making it very difficult to dig and getall the roots out even of one year seedlings. Iam told that in Montana,where I get my seed, they growinany kind of soil, either in the dryest portions of the country or evenupon the edges of swamps. Sometimes they are found in the heavy clay soil, sometimes in a light sandy soil, and they are seen in many instances growing out of the crevices of the rocks where apparently there is no soil. Of course, their long roots reach to some place where they can find soil and nourishment.
If transplanted early in the season they are one of the surest to live, but like all ether Pines, if transplanted after the buds begin to push, many of them will die, but not as badas others. In the Spring of ‘92 we planted a quantity after the new growth had pushed from three to five inches, and, of course, we were unable to get more than two-thirds of the roots. The new growth wilted down. Still fully sixty per cent. of them formed new buds on the old wood and are again ready for business this Spring. Scotchand Austrian Pine planted under the same circumstances were nearly a total failure. We havemany thousands of the Scopulorum Pine that were transplanted early in the season before the new growth began to push, and thereis not oneina thousand dead. Even whole beds are without a single dead tree. We havein our Nurseries now about half a million plants of different ages of these, and are making calculations on getting two or three ee pounds of seed the coming Fall to put in next season.
In the localities where we get out seeds the trees do not seed only about once in five years; but we find the seeds two or three years oldseem to grow just as well as those planted the same year they were collected. The indications now are for a good crop this season and we expect to largely increase our planting of them. We shall try to make a growing of this tree a speciality, believing it to be one of the most valuable for general planting, and by making it a speciality shall prepare ourselves to meet a large demand for them.

ADIGS EXO6ISA INVEPtA.
One of the most beautiful and desirable of the weeping evergreen trees is the Abies excelsa inverta. Itisalso called Abies inverta pendula,
With most weeping evergreen trees it is necessary to tie a leader up toa stick or other support to -hold it upright, which must be continued until it has the desired height, after which the whole tov of the tree will droop. This variety, on the contrary, carries an upright leader, the side branches only drooping. The top shoot grows up very straight and solid, while all the lateral branches droop along the trunk of the tree, the upper branches constantly drooping out over those below which forms a narrow, upright, solid pyramid, compact and of the prettiest possible aspect. Those near the ground do not cease to grow, but if undisturbed, will creep along the ground. Butif they are cut back to allow them only to touch the ground they will thicken up near the stem of the tree and make the pyramid a little broader at the base, and more dense.
The annexed cut was made from a photo- graph taken of a specimen now growing in Eu- rope which is about 25 feet high, and will convey : a very correct idea of the tree. This, being a a sport, or variety, of the Norway Spruce, is as © hardy asthe Norway Spruce itself, and will stand the winters in any part of America and anywhere the Norway Spruce will flourish, F which is in nearly all parts of the United States, and, in fact, nearly all parts of the world, this beautiful weeping tree will also flourish. It is claimed thatif the tips of the aa side branches be grafted on the root of the Norway Spruceit will grow fora leader after having been stayed in an upright position for two orthree years. We have not had enough experience in growing it to vouch for this from a our ownknowledge. Our entire stock is grown } from small plants imported from Europe which had already been grafted two years or more, and had got well started.
There is no finer ormore desirable tree for cemetery planting, at the sides of gate-ways and at the corners of lots, surrounded by hedges, and also at the angles of walks and drives. Itis beautifuland attractive upon the lawn or landscape.
Some Suggestions ior Planting Small Evergreens.
Many people have considerable difficulty in planting small evergreens anda making them live. Thisis particularly the casein the dry portions of the West. Occasionally people write us with bitter complaints about their trees not doing well, even a// dying, which, when thoroughly sifted, amounts toa lackof informa- tion as te how they should be planted and treated.
First: A small evergreen removed and planted, whetherit be awild seedling, nursery seedling, or transplanted tree: and whether itis planted on the dry piains -of the West, orin the moist climate of the East, is greatly benefited by being shaded. The leaves of an evergreen are constantly in a condition to give out moisture, and this moisture must be supplied by the roots. The more they are exposed to the sun, and the hotter the sun and the dryer the air, the greater will be the evapora- tion from the leaves, andthe greater will be the demand upon the roots for moisture. Hence, the two general requirements are tofurnish all the moisture needed by the roots, which are to a considerable extent dormant when first remov- ed, and also to shut out the sun or retard the influence of the sun and the dry air upon the tops as much as possible. This can be done by shading, and the more closely they are shaded the better, and by abundant watering in case the weather is dry. Another source of damage to newly planted trees is the heat of the sun on the roots. Manyvarieties of evergreens grow where theirroots are constantly cooland moist. Hence, it is important that the intense heat of the sun be shut off from the roots as much as practicable. Shade helps this, but a mulch of cut straw, or any fine material, goes much farther.
Wild seedling evergreens have usually grown mostly in the shade. They are more soft and tender. The pores of the leaves are more open, and they will evapo- rate moisture more rapidly under the heat of the sun, and not being supplied with an abundance of fiber roots to supply the moisture, they arein greater need oi shade for protection than nursery seedlings, and the same relative conditions exist with nursery seedlings and transplanted trees. Nursery seedlings do not so strong- ly demand this protection as wild seedlings, and the transplanted seedlings demand it even less than the nursery seedlings. In fact, the transplanted seedlings are perfectly safe to plant out fully exposed to the sun in most parts ofthe country. That is, they willlive, but would get a more vigorous start and do much better if shaded and protected in any part of the couniry.
HOW OD Ormer
The next thing to settleis how this protection can be best given. The directions that we shall give will be particularly adapted to the West, where the greater part of the failures exist, and the same advice, if followed in the East, or the more moist portions of the country, whether it be East or South, wiil do no harm, even though there be little necessity for it in some cases.
First: Prepare a bedinthe gardenas fine as you would for planting onion
seed; put the littie seedlings in the bed, taking pains to get the roots stretched down as deep into the ground as possible. and plant them as close tozether as you can plant them, even so that they touch one another, the closer the better. Plant them as deep as you can without burying any of the leaves. unless they happen to have avery long bare stem. Asarule, plant them alittle deeper than they stood in the nursery; pouron them an abundance of water when planted. Do not be sparing withit: put on enougn to wasn the fine soil well amonz the fibers and small roots, then put on a Shading, laying the shading on poles or rails that lay just above the topsof the trees. This shading may consist of old boards, shingles, barrel staves, corn stalks, or anything that will Shut out the rays of the sun, and Still allow water to go through. Before shading put on the mulching, as directed, to keep the ground cooiand moist. It would be well, in western Nebras- ka, Kansas, Indian Territory, Texas, and through most parts of Colorado and New Mexico—those regions where they have the hos dry winds—to plant onthe south and west sides quite a wide plat of sorghum. Sorghum, is less affected by the hot winds than corn or broom corn, and will make a wind break that will mitigate very largely the heating, burning effectof the hot winds. With this treatment planters of evergreens may expect reasonable success. ' Thetrees, of course, will not need this protection more than one year, when they can be removed and transplanted where it is desired they should grow; and they will by that time have oecome acclimated, so that they will need no shad- ing, but should be muiched, particularly in the West, and should be watered in dry weather for a few years, till they get well established.
These directions are essential for planting wild evergreens in any part of the country: butina climate similar to this, nursery seedlings and transplanted trees will need no protection whatever. But, we as said at the beginning, success will be more certain if they are given this protection,
