the pleasure part was more promi- 

 nent than ever. Because of it the 

 business program was started earlier 

 than usual and will be crowded into 

 two days. Appreciating that there 

 would be more ladies present than at 

 previous meetings, arrangements were 

 made for their entertainment during 

 the association's business hours. 

 Wednesday afternoon they were taken 

 on a sightseeing trip through the city, 

 in automobiles, as guests of the Den- 

 ver Convention League and the west- 

 ern nurserymen. Thursday afternoon 

 the same hosts will take the ladies to 

 the matinee at the Broadway theater. 



But the special entertainment by the 

 western nurserymen is the trip over 

 the celebrated scenic Moffat route to 

 Corona by special train. This is to 

 occupy the entire day of June 9, start- 

 ing at 9 a. m. and reaching Denver 

 again at about 7 p. m. Luncheon is 

 to be served on the train. 



The general entertainment commit- 

 tee consists of F. A. "Weber, F. H. 

 Stannard, Peter Youngers, J. W. Hill, 

 C. G. Ferguson, A. M. Ferguson and 

 Geo. B. Fravert. 



The local entertainment committee is 

 A. M. Ferguson, G. B. Fravert, C. R. 

 Root, J. A. Valentine, C. G. Ferguson, 

 Mrs. Ferguson, Mrs. Fravert, Mrs. 

 Root, Mrs. Valentine and Miss Fravert. 



The committee on entertainment of 

 the ladies is C. G. Ferguson, C. R. Root, 

 J. A. Valentine, Mrs. Ferguson, Mrs.

The association's finance committee

MAGNIFYING OUB CRAFT. 



[An extract from the paper read by E. W. 

 Kirkpatrick before the Nurserymen's Convention 

 at Denver, June 8, 1910.] 



By the measure of discount we set 

 upon ourselves, we are generally ac- 

 cepted. The work of the plant breeder, 

 the fruit and tree grower should be 

 valued and esteemed in accord with its 

 nobility of purpose, its essential and 

 indispensable service. Our duty de- 

 mands services burdened with grave 

 responsibility. 



With all this the nurseryman remains 

 his own worst enemy. The average 

 nurseryman fails in his estimate of cost 

 and of value of his wares. In this 

 failure of estiiihate he loses not alone 

 the price of his wares, but he loses 

 the respect of his fellow man. He lo^es 

 credit among business men, and oft- 

 t\TO?s meets failure in his business and 

 failure in Life. 



The discreet nurseryman, he who suc- 

 ceeds, must exert himself to the utmost 



A BLUE ROSE 



The Greatest 



Rose Novelty 



of the Century 



It flowered with us this sea- 

 son and was greatly admired. 



The New Rambler (Violet Blue), hailed 

 by the German rose growers as the 

 foreranner of a genuinely cornflower 

 bine rose, is a seedling of Crimson 

 Rambler, very vigorous and hardy, and 

 free blooming.
