Special Collections for the Boys and Girls 



We are interested in the boys and girls. "We believe in starting them at work early in life, and giving 

 them a chance to learn some trade or profession. And to encourage them, let them start a strawberry bed, 

 and have them to care for it. They will find comfort and profit and a start in the right direction.

 express charge. To meet this demand we are making the f ollowdng offer, which will certainly please all who 

 wish to try one-year trees. AVe can supply most of the varieties as in the larger sizes, but in case we are 

 out of any variety of one-year stock we reserve the right to substitute a variety equally as good and same 

 season. All trees in this list \rill be well wrapped and packed and 'sent postpaid to your door at prices 

 named, except where otherwise noted :

RULE— Multiply the distance in feet between the rows by the distance the plants are apart in the rows, 

 and the product -will be the number of square feet for each plant or hill, which, divided into the number of 

 feet in an acre, 45,560, will give the number of trees in an acre. 



A Word to the Farmers 



Those farmers who have not had orchards of the leading kinds of fruit trees certainly are behind the 

 times, and are every year losing chances of making farming not only a profitable but also a pleasant occu- 

 pation. Every farmer has experienced the feeling that he is doing the same thing day after day, year in 

 andyear out. He has to wait until Winter before he receives pay for his labor. The farmers need to revo- 

 lutionize this. They must attend more to fruit culture. It has many things to commend it. It breaks the 

 monotony of humdrum farm life ; if properly managed, it makes an income for the farmer the year round.
