This Nursery, within six miles of Boston and so eas- 

 ily viewed stands in no need of that incessant praise, 

 the interested and artful lavish on some ilistant Nur- 

 series, which they well know are located in a wrong 

 direction for supplying people in these Nm thern States. 

 For it is ai estahlished maxim, of which they cannot 

 be ignorant, that trees of rapid growth ought not to be 

 robbed of their roots in the fashionable way and remov- 

 ed from a mild to a colder situation, — hut the reverse. 

 However, Yankee sagacity is not easily outwitted, 

 hence experienced Agriculturists as far south as Rhode 

 Island, give a decided preference to trees fmm North- 

 ern Nurseries. 



Orders addressed to J. & ^V. Kenrick, and sent to 

 the Brighton post office, or left al Ihe office of Dana ir 

 Fenno in State ^treet, will he duly attended to ; and 

 \ trees will be packed in clay and mails for shipping when 

 ordered , but distant gentlemen should always employ 

 some ag' nt to receive and pay for them. On Satur- 

 days, paclied trees will be delivered in Boston free of 

 charge for conveyance. 



In transplanting, one year's growth is frequently 

 lost, if Ihe trees happen to survive, by aa unreatonable 

 diminution of the roots, therefore special care shall be 

 taken for their preservation. tf. March 9.
