Whenever planters desire only small quantities of stock it will be 

 advisable to secure it from a dealer. The price demanded for seedlings 

 will be considerably higher than the actual cost of raising the seedlings, 

 but not sufficiently great to warrant small planters attempting to 

 propagate their own seedlings. Generally, the regular price will be 

 reduced by a nurseryman even to a small planter who contracts in 

 advance for a stated number of seedlings. 



If large quantities of seedlings are to be used annually for several 

 consecutive years, the saving in the cost of seedlings will warrant the 

 planter in establishing a small nursery and propagating his own stock. 

 The practicability of doing this depends largely on the local prices 

 demanded for seedlings, however, and on the facilities at hand for 

 raising them. 



The prices for seedlings exacted by nurserymen in different parts of 

 the State vary from $8 to $30 per thousand, depending largely on the 

 local demand. Hence, if a planter lives in a locality where $30 pt-r 

 thousand is asked, it is expedient, at least, to use home-grown seedlings.
