HINTS ON PLANTING 


First—Be sure that roots of trees and plants are 
kept moist and well covered from time of leaving 
nursery until planted. 


Second—Dig holes larger and deeper than nec- 
essary to receive roots in their natural position with- 
out bending. Place tree in center of hole and fill 
with fine top soil, working same well among the 
roots. When about two-thirds filled with soil, fill 
hole with water and when water has settled finish 
filling with soil; firm soil gently with we foot and 
rake surface level. 


Third—When through planting, if one-year-old 
trees, cut back to a uniform height of about thirty 
inches from the ground. Side limbs, if any, should 
be cut close to body of tree. Peach trees should 
have side limbs cut to within one inch of body of 
tree. If two-year-old trees, there will be from three 
to six branches. Cut out all but three or four limbs 
suitable to form a well balanced top, and cut each 
side limb back to four or five inches from body of 
tree, leaving leader or center limb twenty to twenty- 
four inches long. 


Fourth—If weather is warm and dry, water thor- 
oughtly every six or eight days. Soil should be 
stirred with a hoe, as soon as dry enough to work 
mellow, after each watering. 


Fifth—If trees are dry and shriveled when re- 
ceived, bury in moist soil for five or six days. If 
frozen, do not.open box or bale, but bury until frost 
is drawn out. 


Sixth—Never allow manure to come in contact 
with roots of newly planted trees or shrubs, but if 
put on top of ground after planting it is of benefit: 
as a mulch. 


Seventh—Never handle trees in frosty or windy 
weather. Set trees an inch or two deeper than 
they stood in nursery. 


Moore’s Nurseries 1 


REMARKS 


Owing to the fact that agents of several outside 
nurseries are continually circulating the report that 
we have retired from the nursery business, we beg 
to state that we are still growing and selling nursery 
stock at the same stand—and on the same principles. 


ORDER EARLY—As it is impossible to forecast 
the demand for nursery stock, some varieties are 
always sold up before the end of the season. There 
has also, during the past few years, been a shortage 
in most lines—with consequent high prices—and 
there is still a shortage in some lines, especially 
ornamentals. For these reasons we advise the plac- 
ing of orders early, while there is a full stock from 
which to make your selection. Order by mail or in 
person if possible, as telephone orders are very often 
the cause of errors. 


DELIVERY SEASON usually from March 15th 
to May ist. Seasons vary so much, however, we must 
be governed by prevailing weather conditions. 


TERMS AND CONDITIONS 


Read carefully before ordering. 


TERMS CASH with order of before delivery, ex- 
cept by special arrangement. 


LOCAL DELIVERY—No charge for delivery to 
any part of the city on orders of $5.00 or more, if 
cash IN FULL accompanies order; otherwise a 
charge of 50 cents for each delivery. A deposit of 
20 per cent required on all c. o. d. orders. 


PRICES—We aim to make our prices the lowest 
consistent with dependable stock and prices named 
are for FIRST GRADE STOCK. We have other 
grades in some varieties; prices quoted on appli- 
cation. Also glad to quote prices on larger quan- 
tities. Fifty or more trees at hundred rates. 


FREE FREIGHT AND PACKING—Orders of 
$10.00 or more, at single rate quoted accompanieé 
with cash in full, will be delivered to your nearest 
railroad station CHARGES PREPAID. This in- 
cludes all stock listed except Shade, Ornamental and 
Evergreen trees. 


THIS LIST CANCELS all previous quotations 
and is subject to change without notice except on 
orders already booked. 


GUARANTEE—If nursery stock etc., proves un- 
true to description under which it was sold, we hold 
ourselves in readiness on proper proof, to replace 
all such nursery stock, ete., that may prove other- 
wise, or refund the amount paid for same, but we 
shall in no case be liable for any sum greater than 
ihe emannt originally received for said nursery 
stock. 


CLAIMS—Human help is not infallible and errors 
occur in all lines of business. Your satisfaction is 
our success, however, and to insure proper adjust- 
ment, all claims for errors, shortage or anything 
else pertaining to your order must be made promptly 
after receipt of goods.

EVERGREENS. 
Prices for trees balled and burlaped. 


Many people hesitate to plant evergreens, under 
the impression that they are hard to grow. Such is 
not the case if the trees are handled properly in 
transplanting and given a little care afterwards. 


The varieties listed below are all grown in our own 
nurseries and have been two or three times trans- 
planted. 


In transplanting, Evergreen trees are taken up 
with a ball of soil on the roots, which is securely 
covered with burlap. In planting, dig a hole where 
tree is to stand, place tree in hole just as received 
from the nursery, cut the string that holds the bur- 
lap in place and, if soil is unbroken, lift tree gently 
and remove all burlap. [If soil is broken and likely 
to fall away from the roots, do not attempt to re- 
move the burlap, but lay it out smooth underneath 
the tree. Fill in carefully with fine moist soil, which 
should be made firm enough by tramping to prevent 
roots being moved by the tree swaying in the wind. 


Juniper Virg. (Red Cedar)—Narrow, pyramidal 
habit; dark green to reddish foliage. In season 
covered with bright blue and silver berries. 


Price, 2 to 3 feet, $2.50 to $3.50 each. 


Juniper, Silver—Beautiful silvery blue color; narrow, 
compact and symmetrical. Berries blue and silver 
colored. 


Price, 18 to 24 inches, $3.00 to $4.00 each. 


Arbor Vitae, Pyramidal—Of remarkable erect 
growth, rich, dark green foliage. It is of the same 
habit as the Trish Juniper, and is decidedly more 
valuable for its superior hardiness. 


Price, 1 to 2 feet, $3.00 each. 


Arbor Vitae, Globe—The finest of the globular types, 
forming a compact and perfect globe without 
pruning. Seldom exceeds 3 to 3% feet in diameter 
at maturity. Beautiful dark green foliage; ex- 
cellent for foundation planting and for tubbing. 


Price, 12 by 12 inches, $4.00 each. 


Spruce, Black Hill—Hardiest of all spruces. 
Foliage varies from green to bluish tint, very 
compact and bushy. Small specimens only. 


Price, 12 to 15 inches, $2.00 each. 


Japanese Spurge—An evergreen ground cover, with 
thick glossy green foliage. Excellent for edging 
or underplanting, and does well in the shade where 
grass will not grow. Six to eight inches in height 
and spreads over the ground. 


Price, 50 cents each, $3.50 per 10.

cover. Beautiful glossy, dark green leaves.
