Frank Sawyee, of the Norwalk Nurs- 

 ery Co., at Norwalk, O., is reported to 

 liave been seriously ill. 



The capital stock of the Sunny field 

 Nursery Co. has been increased from 

 $5,000 to $10,000. The stock is issued in 

 shares of $100 each. The stockholders 

 are Frank B. Lown, Harry C. Barker and 

 John B. Grubb. 



Mandigo & Levine, of Seattle, Wash., 

 unloaded at Big Wells, Tex., recently a 

 large car of grape cuttings, and are pre- 

 paring to put in a nursery. After a 

 thorough investigation of all the irri- 

 gated sections of the west, these gentle- 

 men decided upon the Big Wells district 

 as being the best adapted to the culture 

 of grape vines. 



The Amarillo Nursery & Seed Co., 

 Amarillo, Tex., has been incorporated 

 with a paid up capital of $25,000. The 

 ofiicers are: President and manager, D. 

 J. Muncy; vice-president, R. E. Under- 

 wood; secretary and treasurer, W. F 

 Jons. While the nursery business will 

 be the principal line, field and garden 

 seeds will be grown and dealt in. 



In a circular just issued by John Hall, 

 in reference to the, convention to be held 

 at Boston June iS to 14, it is said: 

 "When we reflect that there are more 

 than 2,000 commercial nurseries in the 

 United States it is surprising, in view 

 of all they owe to the American Asso- 

 ciation, that not over one-fifth of the 

 owners of them are identified with the 

 organization. ' ' 



The Breck-Bobinson Nursery Co., Bos- 

 ton, has been incorporated with $25,000 

 authorized capital stock, by Alfred E. 

 Robinson, Charles H. Breck, Joseph F. 

 Breck, Edward 0. Hatch and Russeli O. 

 (Gardner. The oflScers are: President, 

 Joseph F. Breck; vice-president and gen- 

 eral manager, Alfred E. Robinson; treas- 

 urer, Charles H. Breck; secretary, Shel- 

 don A. Robinson. Manager Robinson is 

 well known to the trade through twenty 

 years of connection with New England 

 nurseries and the Brecks are the Boston 

 seedsmen. The main office will be in

To supply an active and steadily increasing demand for first-class nursery 

 stock and expert advice in all phases •«f--Iandscape work, Joseph Breck & Sons 

 and Mr. Alfred E. Robinson have formed a new corporation, the Breck-Bobin- 

 son Nursery Co., their nursery and seed trial grounds being located in the 

 historic town of Lexington, at Munroe Station (which is in the nursery) on 

 the B, & M. R. R. The grounds can also be reached by electric cars, which 

 leave Arlington Heights for Lexington every fifteen minutes. 



The nursery and experimental grounds will be under the direct supervision 

 of Mr. Alfred E. Robinson, who is favorably known to thousands of customers 

 whom he has served during twenty years' connection with large nurseries of 

 New York and New England. The main office will be conducted in connection 

 with the Seed and Agricultural Implement business of Joseph Breck & Sons, 

 51 and 52 North Market St., Boston, Mass. A prominent feature will be the 

 Landscape Department, under the direction of Mr. Sheldon A. Robinson, giving 

 especial attention to the development of suburban estates and home grounds. 



The service that we shall give can be no more highly recommended than to 

 say that it will be fully in accord with the high standard of excellence and 

 reputation for fair dealing that has distinguished the house of Joseph Breck 

 & Sons, during an existence of nearly a hundred years. In soliciting the con- 

 tinued patronage of friends, who have so liberally favored the Brecks and Mr. 

 Robinson in the past, we do so with the assurance that any relations which may 

 result will be eminently satisfactory. 



A very complete and beautifully illustrated catalogue of trees, plants, etc., 

 will be mailed on application.
