THE SEASON. 



A number of nurserymen reported on 

 the spring business and commented on 

 its peculiarities. In general, the volume 

 of sales is said to have been larger 

 than ever, in spite of the shortness of 

 the season. Here are some further 

 reports : 



Franklin Davis Nursery Co., Baltimore. 



On account of the very early spring 

 with us, the shipping season of 1910 has 

 been short. Business, however, has been 

 satisfactory and we have cleaned up on 

 many items, especially apple and peach.
