 Chicago, on the C, B. & Q R. R.. over which pass 

 daily twelve passenger and f*ome thirty freight trains, 

 afibrding excellent facilities for shipping to all parts 

 of the country. 



The convenience to parties wiirhing to visit these 

 Nurseries is unsurpassed by any other locality in the 

 StJite. 



B--lng located immediately in the vicinity of 

 Chicago and its many suburban towns, with their 

 rapid growth and increasing demand for trees, shrubs
