 SEED STORE, for the last ten years managed by the subscri- 

 ber, has been removed from 29 Buffalo street to 34 Exchange street, 

 two doors above the Clinton Hotel. 



Claiming to know from experience, something of the value to 

 the grower of good, fresh seeds, aa well aa the necessity of having 

 such kinds aa will give the greatest and best return to labor, this 

 branch of the seed business has received special attention, and 

 purchasers may rely on coiTectuess, Our motto is '• never know- 

 ingly to deceive a customer," 



It is cur intention to keep all the ^'arieties of seeds desirable to 

 be grown in tlie Northern States. I shall have the large German

 I have sold this "large v ariety of Clover for several years, and it has 

 never failed to give satisfaction.

THE undersignt-d, successors of J.as. Sumpter & Co., will 

 tinuc the business of said firm and fill all the contracts 

 by it in Ohio and Illinois, and being thankful for past favoi-s \ 

 now solicit future patronage. We design prosecuting our bui 

 w ith redoubled energy. We have no hesitancy in staling th: 

 luive the largeat and best lot of Osage Orange plants evei grov 

 the continent, owing to the fact that the seed was planttd ^ 

 they did not suffer from the severe drouth that has so gem 

 prevailed throughout the country. We.alno import our own 

 direct from Texa,s it shall be fresh and of the best quality, j 

 wliich is warranted and will be sold at the lowest prices. 



Full directions for raising plants. Setting, Cultivating and ' 

 ming in a manner that will secure success, will accompany eat 

 of seed and plants sold. 



We continue to plant, cultivate, trim and mature a con 

 fence at from 75 cts. to $1,00 per rod, one-third to be paid 

 planted, and the balance when completed. Hedges set and wai 

 ed at from 30 to 40 cts. per rod. Hedges grown, for what dipl 

 ested persons will E.ay they are worth, when matured. H 

 completely grown at $1 ,00 to ©1.25 per rod, to be paid when a 

 rough fence is matured. 



We wish a large number of business men, living in Iocs 

 where hedging is needed, to take hold with us in the plantini 

 growing of hedges, the sale of plants, seed, &c. Those havin 

 confidence of their neighbors, shall receive a liberal ofTer. I 

 hear from you gentlemen. The enterprise is not only laudibb 

 will pay. McGREW, LEAS & CO
