This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1894 Excerpt: ...be planted on every lawn. I think it has a place all to itself. The foliage is of a light silvery color. It presents quite a remarkable appearance on a lawn, and when in bloom the flowers are quite small and yellow but they just fill the air in the blooming season with a heavy honey like fragrance. There is not anything so beautiful in its season as the wild olive. It is the observed of all observers in its season, and while it is handsome at all seasons of the year, the leaves hang on quite late in the fall and their silvery appearance makes the tree exceedingly handsome. It is the easiest thing in the world to propagate. You gather the seeds in the fall and mix them with sand and put them out to freeze in boxes buried just beneath the surface so the seed will be frozen, then plant it out in the spring; the seed will perhaps not all come up the first year, but you will be apt to get quite a fair stand the first year. The Mennonites in Kansas have long hedges of it. It is beautiful for an ornamental hedge, but I think the best place for it is on the lawn. It has an upright compact head and is very beautiful. Mr. Harris: In sending to the nursery for this shrub, should we call it the wild olive? Prof. Hansen: It is better then to use the botanical name. When you order it is best to give the full name, the Eastern wild olive. The others are not hardy in Iowa Mr. Moyer: In western Minnesota, the nicest shrub we have is the wild olive. It grows very rapidly after it is well estab lished and makes a large growth each year. In its general aspect it is much like the buffalo berry; a person would have to look twice to tell the difference. Mr. Smith: Its resemblance to the buffalo berry is such that it makes one think of it at once. President Underwood: How about th...
