SUGAR GROVE FARM, 

 7 Miles from Dayton, owned by Jas. McGrew. '-^ysj, 



THE undersigned, successors of Jas. Sumpter & Co., will con- 

 tinue the business of said firm and fill all the contracts made 

 by it in Ohio and Illinois, and being thankful for past favors would 

 now solicit future patronage. We design prosecuting our busineFS 

 with redoubled energj'. We have no hesitancy in stating that we 

 have tlie largest and best lot of Osage Orange plants ever grown on 

 the continent, owing to the fact that the seed was planted where 

 they did r jt sufTer fiom the severe drouth that has so generally 

 prevailed throughout the country. We also import our own seed 

 direct from Texas; it shall be fresh and of the best quality. All of 

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



Full directions for raising plants. Setting, Cultivating and Trim- 

 ming in a manner that will secure succefs, will accompany each lot 

 of seed and plants sold. 



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

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

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

 ed at from 30 to 40 cts. per rod. Hefiges grown, for what disinter- 

 ested persons will say they are worth, when matured. Hedgp* 

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

 rough fence is matured. E~; ^y — ' 



We ^ish a large num,ber of business men, living in localiliw 

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

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

 confidence of their neighbors, shall receive a liberal oiler. Let us 

 hearfiom you gentlemen. The entei-prise is not only laudible, but 

 will pay. McGKEW, LEAS & CO.
