rect sales price, provided every tree is 

 sold. 



As a matter of fact, however, year 

 in and year out, a nurseryman is unable 

 to sell and realize on more than seventy- 

 five per cent of his product. This will 

 increase the actual cost of the tree that 

 he sells by 6 2/3 cents, making the low- 

 est figure at which he can sell at a safe 

 margin of profit an average price of 

 26% cents per tree. 



This example is based on the results 

 of the experience of the last three years. 

 With the present increased high cost of 

 living and production, the averages 

 named justify a material increase. 



Surplus vs. Brush Pile. 



In view, however, of the abnormal 

 conditions, of a short supply of trees 

 and an unprecedented demand, it is 

 probable that nurserymen this year and 

 next will realize a profit in excess of 

 the average named. 



On the other hand, as soon as the 

 supply has been increased, by the vision 

 of the profits now being made in the 

 nursery business, to such a degree that 

 it exceeds the demand, the probability 

 is that the nurseryman regularly in the 

 business will experience a period of one 

 or several seasons during which the 

 magnitude of his brush pile will not 

 only absorb a large percentage of the 

 accumulated surplus of several "fat" 

 years, but, unless he exercises good busi- 

 ness sagacity, may cause him a consid- 

 erable loss, if it does not entirely wreck 

 the business. 



Mankato, Minn. — A recent incorpora-

 talization of $75,000. The officers are

Grand Forks, N. D.— The Grand Forks 

 Floral Co., of which E. G. Lemke and 

 O. C. Wardin are the proprietors, moved 

 to 412 De Mers avenue June 1. The new 

 location was a long felt want, as th« 

 business had outgrown two smaller 

 stores. The new store has a frontage of 

 twenty-two feet and is ninety feet deep. 

 A spacious workroom and attractive dis- 

 play windows help dispose of a large 

 stock of flowers. E. G. Lemke is a son 

 of E. F. Lemke, the wholesale florist of 

 St. Paul, Minn.
