which such insects may be imported, as 

 well as a sufficient means of control of 

 interstate transportation of such mate-

He then went into the office of Chase 

 Bros. Co., in the fall of 1885, and con- 

 tinued there till 1890, when he accepted 

 a position with Smith, Perkins & Co., 

 one of the wholesale grocery firms of the 

 city. After a year and a half in that 

 business, he entered the employ of B. D. 

 Luetchford & Co., nurserymen, and re- 

 mained there until September, 1898, when 

 he began work for EUwanger & Barry. 



He was connected with the last-men- 

 tioned firm till May, 1899, and then he 

 organized the Charlton Nursery Co., at 

 that time a copartnership between J. M. 



Edward S. Osborne.

 ery business was at the age of 9 years, 

 when he worked during Easter vacation 

 for Glen Bros., of that city, on the 

 packing yard, running out tags. After 

 that he worked each season, both spring 



Charlton and himself. In 1902 the com- 

 pany was incorporated under the same 

 name.
