The Westbury Nurseries' 
TERMS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS. 
IyOCATIOX.-Our Xur series are located on the Jericho Turnpike, and may be easily reached 
over good roads (see map). They are one mile north of Westbury Station, L. I. R. R., where public hacks 
are found. 
TESTING*- The extensive test orchards, started 60 years ago, have been of great value 
to Long Island planters. Hundreds of varieties of Apple, Pear, Peach, Plum, Cherry, and other fruit have been 
carefully tried and worthy kinds recommended. Similar tests have been made of shade trees and shrubs. 
Recent additions, too extensive to be catalogued, have been made of rare species and varieties of hardy trees, 
shrubs and vines, which are now under trial in our Arboretum and Nursery-blocks. 
ADVANTAGES.-The advantages of our Nursery to Long Island and other planters are that trees 
are grown in rich loam soil, wide apart, frequently cultivated, annually manured or fertilized, skillfully pruned 
and trained, carefully dug by fork and spade, all of which insures vigorous constitution and ample root system. 
Being: centrally located, even trees of large size are quickly delivered by wagon to distant 
places, as, Far Rockaway, Brooklyn, Great Neck, Northport or Islip, and to more distant points by railroad 
Evergreens may thus be planted the same day as dug. 
Our location, methods of cultivation, and the absence of traveling agents are the factors of econom- 
ical production and selling. 
Our trees are largrer and have hetter roots than those usually sold. They 
live and grow better than smaller trees, which is contrary to a frequent opinion based on poor-rooted, close- 
grown stock, which struggles unsuccessfully for existence against drought, decay and insects. 
The success of a tree depends upon the roots, the food and water which it receives, the reserve 
fcod at the buds and the health of the leaves.

. We a P n0t S^a^ntee the living of trees, as the want of proper protection before and while plant- 
ing,, or the damage ensuing from drought and drying winds, often destroys a tree full of vigor.
