MEMORANDUM
Date: November 29, 1989
To: Xenia S. Miller, Irwin Miller
From: Owen D. Hungerford
Subject: Jack Curtis' Instructions for 2760 Tree Maintenance
Jack Curtis' written instructions for maintenance of trees and shrubs at 2760 are being followed by Jack Schmeckebier and the 2760 staff.
Jack Curtis specified liquid fertilizer which is not available in the Midwest. Initially Jack S. asked Jack Curtis to suggest a substitute for the liquid fertilizer. However, Jack S. has persuaded the factory to sell this fertilizer directly to us in 55-gallon drums.
Jack Schmeckebier says Curtis' recommendations will be followed explicitly.
