FOR NEARBY TERRITORY

ADVICE TO CORRESPONDENTS

PLEASE READ BEFORE MAKING OUT ORDER.

All orders should be sent in as early as possible to insure prompt at-
Order tention ; it is our rule to execute them in the order in which they come
Early to hand, hence we cannot delay orders, received first, for those coming
late in the season and requiring attention at once. In every case where
passible it is advisable to forward goods early. If ground is not in
condition to plant, they can be left in the boxes, or taken out and the roots
covered with earth.

All orders from unknown correspondents must be accompanied with
Terms a draft on some of the principal cities, or post-office or express money
order for the amount. If neither can be had, enclose currency in
registered letter.

Claims for deduction must be made immediately on receipt of goods.
Claims No claims will be allowed for loss by cold in winter or drouth in
summer or for any cause whatsoever beyond our control. No clar
will be allowed for delay or loss by transportation companies — -tl.
alone must be held responsible.

GUARANTEE — In growing and furnishing all nursery stock we use the
greatest care to have it true to name, and will replace any that may prove un-
true. But no sale by us carries a warranty of quality, express or implied, and
for any error we shall not be liable for more than the purchase price. Every
purchase from us is made on these terms.

Our prices may not be the lowest, but price is a secondary matter
Prices when considering the purchase ofTrees and Plants. Quality should
count for something, also the record of forty-five years of fair
dealings.

The prices in this catalogue supersede those of all former editions.
Express The express companies now carry trees and plants to any part of
Rates the country at a reduction of 20 per cent, from regular merchandise
rates.

The Spring packing and shipping season usually opens here about
Packing the first of April, and continues into the month of May. The
Season planting season is not regulated by any particular month or day, nor
by the state of vegetation where the planting is to be done, but by
the condition of the trees to be planted. In the autumn, we usually
commence digging and packing the first week in October and con-
tinue until the freezing of the ground, say midde to end of November.

The Spring planting season is often of such short duration that
Fall much intended work is necessarily omitted or postponed. In the Fall
Planting there is abundance of time to plan and plant, an dthe work there-
fore can frequently be done as satisfactorily as in the Spring.

The once prevalent notion that Fall planting is not advantageous, has
proved to be erroneous. Almost everything called hard y can be planted suc-
cessfully in the autumn, except in some regions' where the winters are extreme-
ly severe, or in exposed situations in which case Spring planting is absolutely
necessary.

Evergreens may be transplanted successfully in August and September.

Our Nursery is inspected once each year by our State Entomologist and with
each order we send to our customers a certificate to show that our stock
is free and clean from any disease whatever.

PREFACE

We take pleasure in presenting herewith our general
Catalogue.

In the Fruit and Ornamental Department as well as

We grow and offer to the customers only such trees
and plants adapted to our soil and temperature and our
surrounding territory.

We spend much time and money in experimenting
and we therefore know just what to recommend to the
trade. Such trees and plants that have no merit, and
not adapted to this climate, we have discarded.

REMARKS .

We sometimes have stock not listed. Write us if
there are items wanted that are not listed herein.

All Trees and Plants sold 50 at 100 rates and 5 at
10 rates.

SELECT PEARS

STANDARD AND DWARF PEARS

Standard Pears prefer a strong loam, but succeed well in a
great variety of soils, and upon almost any land that will pro-
duce good crops of vegetables or grain.

Pears will keep longer an dtheir flavor be greatly improved
by picking before they are quite mature, and ripening them
in the house. By a judicious selection of varieties their season
can be extended from July to February.

Dwarf Pears are suited to garden culture, or where space
is limited. Can be planted 8 or 10 feet apart, and deep enough
to cover the union of the stock and scion ,and be trained low by
proper shortening of the terminal branches. These conditions
being observed they will be found very satisfactory, though
we urge, where space is ample, that Standard trees be planted.

Bartlett — Large size; very juicy and high flavored; August and
September.

Clapp’s Favorite — Large size; pale lemon yellow; flesh fine
grained, juicy, melting ,rich and buttery; a cross between

SELECT PEACHES

To secure healthy, vigorous and fruitful trees and fine fruit,
the following points must be well attended to in peach culture:
1st. Keep the ground clean and mellow around the trees, and
give it an occasional dressing of wood ashes. 2d. Keep the
heads low — the trunks ought not to exceed three feet in height.

WE HAVE NO AGENTS, WE SELL DIRECT TO THE PLANTER

HAAS’ HOME NURSERY

3d. Attend regularly every spring to pruning and shortening the
shoots of the previous year’s growth. This keeps the head,
round, full, and well furnished with bearing wood. Cut weak
shoots back about one-half, and strong ones one-third; but see
that you have a sufficient supply of fruit buds. Sickly and super-
fluous shoots should be cut clean out.

It should always be borne in mind that the fruit is produced
on wood of the last season’s growth ,and hence the necessity of
keeping up a good supply of vigorous annual shoots all over
the tree.

NOTE — In planting peaches, it is of the highest importance to
cut back the trees severely. The stem should be reduced about
one-third and the side branches cut back to one bud. This less-
ens the demand upon the roots, and enables the remaining buds
to push more vigorously. Most failures in newly planted or-
chards ma ybe ascribed to a non-observance of these directions.

tra early. Begining of July.

quality. End of September.

keeper and shipper. October.

golden yellow. October.

Champion — -A prolific bearer, fruit larger than the Orange, more
oval in shape.

2 yrs. old, each 50c.

SELECT GRAPES

The Grape is the most healthful of all fruits, and the most
highly esteemed for its many uses. It can be grown by everyone
who has a garden, a yard, or a wall. It can be confined t oa
stake, boun dto a trellis, trained over an arbor, or extended until

CONCORD

it covers a large tree or building, and still it yields its graceful
bunches of luscious fruit. Capable of most extraordinary re-
sults under wise management, it is prone also to give the great-
est disappointment under bad culture or neglect. Other fruits
may be had from plants that know no care; but grapes are to be
had onl ythrough attention and forethought.

Soils — Good grapes are grown on various soils, sandy, clayey,
loamy, etc. The soil must be well drained, and there should be
a free exposure to the sun and air. Hillsides unsuitable for
other crops are good places for grapes.

BLACK VARIETIES

grapes will grow.

bloom, vine exceedingly hardy. Its earliness makes it de-
sirable for an early market.

SELECT ASPARAGUS

easiest cultivated and most profitable. A bed once planted suf-
fers no deterioration for thirty years or more, if it is properly
attended to and well manured.

work it up fine and deep and make it very rich with well rotted
barnyard manure. Place the plants eight inches apart in rows
three feet apart. Spread out the roots in s£ trench made deep

LANDSCAPE GARDENING

The art of Landscape Gardening has developed from the
desire of property owners to create artistic grounds and settings
in harmony with their houses and to accomplish this, a know-
ledge of color schemes and the proper blending of colors is nec-
essary. The “Nurseryman” being familiar with trees, plants and
vines, including their foliage and flowers, their habit of growth,
their future development, final appearance in their mature sett-
ings, are points which must be understood; also to develop
pleasing effects, open views or vistas temper, bad features make
skylines irregular and pleasing to the eye, screen unsightly ob-
jects, and display broad lawns. Every season of the year may
be enhanced by proper plantings around the home. Earliest
spring may be brightened and cheered with great masses of gold-
en flowers on the Forsythia even before the foliage appears on
the drooping branches, all through May, June and July by care-
ful selection of shrubbery, banker against the house, and boun-
daries of the grounds will furnish a constant changing Kaleido-
scope of colors from blossoms and foliage. After these months
flowers are more infrequent on the shrub, and the contrasting
foliage of various shades of Green, Gold and Bronze are restful
to the eye and mind. The autumn becomes brilliant with crim-
son, purple and gold. Even “Winter” need not be dreary and
cheerless on home grounds for skillful plantings will include
red and golden barked dogwood, Japanese barberry with its
scarlet berries, charming snowberry, red beaded Indian currants,
silvery barked birches, Highbush Cranberry, or Honeysuckle
upright, with highly translucent berries of yellow and red. There-
fore, the essential feature, the study of beautifying home grounds
requires a knowledge of “plant Hardiness,” which the Nursery-
man in his section throughly understands from experience, not
“theory,” and hence, to select only such trees and plants as will
withstand the varying changes of this climate, and this is where
we have the advantage over our competitors in other sections of
the country, for we not only know the plants and trees of our
climate, but we prove their hardiness by growing them here be-
fore we offer them for sale.

ROSE DEPARTMENT

The Rose is a specialty with us and we propogate it on a most
extensive scale.

There are two ways to propogate the Rose bush, one, is to
bud or graft on Manetti Wild Stock, and the other way is to
grow them from cuttings. The latter system produces your
Roses on their own roots^ which means that you have an “ever-
lasting” rose; the former system means that by budding of
grafting ro§.es upon this Manetti Stock, Nurserymen can grow a
rose in this manner that will bloom and sell the first season.
However, as soon as the bud dies out, you have only the wild
stock left, which is worthless. It cost a great deal more to grow
a Rose on its own roots, but they give satisfaction and we grow
all our Roses on their OWN Roots. No budded or grafted Roses
in our Nursery.

These Roses, however, require Winter protection.

HI BIRD TEA ROSES

(Half Hardy)

The roses included in this section are valued especially for
their free and continuous blooming qualities which render them
particularly useful to plant in beds and groups for the orna-
mentation of the lawn or to grow in the garden for a supply
of cut owers for decorative purposes.

The collection embraces several of the choicest roses which
can be recommended in the strongest terms to planters with the
suggestion that they require better winter protection than do
the Hybrid Perpetuals. The plants need to be well banked up
with earth and covered with straw or evergreen boughs,
each 50c; doz. $5.00.

SOME OF OUR LEADING VARIETIES.

The extra care devoted to the roses in this class will be amply
repaid in the satisfactory owers produced abundantly and con-
tinuously during the summer.

PAEONIES

HERBACEOUS PAEONIES WITH A PEDIGREE.

A noble flower, almost rivaling the Rose in brilliancy of color
and perfection of bloom, and the Rhododendron in stately
growth. The first point in its favor is hardiness. It may be
truly said to be “hardy as an oak.” In the severest climate the
plants require no other protection than that which they afford
themselves. Then their vigorous habit and healthy growth,
freedom from all diseases and insects are important arguments
in favor of their cultivation. Each succeeding yea radds to
their size and beauty. The foliage is rich and glossy and of a
beautiful deep green color, thus rendering the plants very orna-
mental even when out of flower. The newer varieties produce
very large, handsome, regularly formed cupped blooms, ersem-
bling large roses. No other flower is so well adapted for large,
showy bouquets. The Peony may be planted either singly on
the lawn or in boarders. Where the lawn is extensive a large
bed makes a grand show, surpassing a bed of Rhododendrons. It
is really a flower for the million. It flowers early in June. Our
collection has been made with great care and includes the best
and most distinct varieties.

Elower show at Boston, Mass,
