remarkable than 8 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1921 . WINTER IS TIME TO TRANSPLANT TREES Chicago Landscape Company Ex- plains Method of Successful Transplanting Large Trees "Many trees as large as 12 inches in diameter will be transplanted to grounds and lawns around Winnetka by us this winter," states J. I. Thom- as, manager of the permanent Win- netka office of the Chicago Landscape Company, at 813 Elm street. Mr. Thomas, in the midst of a very busy season of work for his company, points out that right now is the time to plant saplings and young trees -- the kind that will shoot up with new life in the spring. The transplanting of a tree as large as 12 inches in di- ameter he describes as a feat more the moving of a house. - At a wide radius from the tree, the ground is dug down under the frost --for all transplanting of large trees is done in frozen ground, so that the earth will not fall away from the roots and also that growth will start again naturally in the spring when the soil thaws again. Resembles Mushroom The tree, with a mass of frozen earth covering its roots, looks like a great mushroom as it is being hauled to its new location on a truck. Spring rains and thawing earth make complete the deception prac- ticed on Mother Nature, and every tree that has been transplanted prop- erly resumes its growth, perhaps even more vigorously, due to its new lo- cation. The practical phase of tree-plant- ing is only one of the services ren- dered by the Chicago Landscape com- pany. Its chief work is the popular- izing of genuine landscape gardening for the smaller home. The experience of most home own- ers with a desire to beautify their residence has been a choice between consulting a landscape expert at a large fee, or hiring a nurseryman to plant as he saw fit. Either one was useless without the other, and to pay for the services of both often ran the cost to prohibitive figures. Now comes the Chicago Landscape Company with a staff of college trained landscape architects who have had years of practical experience in addition. They have been operating under the unique policy of giving a complete plan free with every plant- ing job they undertake. The result is that the homeowner receives the practical experience of the nurseryman in his planting, plus a carefully executed plan for his own particular grounds, worked out by a real landscape expert. Experts on Job Mr. Thomas himself is a graduate of the landscape school of the Uni- versity of Illinois, with several years practical experience in landscape beautifying and small home work. All of his associates are college trained men who have discovered the means "of beautifying the smaller suburban home at a moderate cost. Complete plans made for suburban places by the Chicago Landscape Company include landscape construc- tion, planting, grading, seeding, sod- ding, and the moving in of large trees in the winter. Thus the small home can surround itself with grounds fully as attractive as the lawns of the large home, and it has been Mr. Thomas' experience to perform some very remarkable trans- formations in the shrubbery, trees, and terraces surrounding a home, even in many cases changing a barren lot to a beautiful lawn of foliage.
