Fall Mauting Suggestions
B. F. BARR & SON NURSERIES, R. D. 2 MARIETTA AVE., ROUTE 330 LANCASTER, PA.

For comforting Shade and Beauty next summer, plant one or more of our large Ornamen-
tal Trees this Fall or Winter; Oak, Maples, Sweet Gum, Ginkgo or Elms, 12-20 years old
4-7” caliper, 25-30 ft. high, 6-8 ft. spread, especially grown for transplanting, offered below
cost—all balled and burlapped. Reasonably priced according to size and variety.

Come in and make your selection now, while they are in foliage.

It’s smart to plant a few permanent trees, large or small, on your vacant lot giving
them a start before you build your house.

EVERGREENS

August, September and October (the ideal time to plant Evergreens). Fall rains pack
the earth firmly about the roots; they not only start immediate roots but they make a bet-
ter growth the following year.

Choicest varieties 1 ft. to 10 ft. reasonably priced.

TREES—SHRUBBERY—HEDGES

Oetober and November planting has many advantages over Spring planting; among these advantages are finer and
better blooms the following Spring and a stronger growth.
