, at St. Louis, tooic up the question 
were confronted by two serious con- 
ditions to meet — the quality 
of the stock to be used and 
the immediate effect they 
wished to produce. They 
asked for propositions from 
many of the leading nursery- 
men in the country, with the 
result that we were called 
upon to furnish 12 car-loads 
of large trees, shrubs of all 
kinds, bay trees and box 
trees such as are described in 
various places in this cata- 
logue. This was the largest 
shipment of nursery stock ever 
made by any firm in the world. 
The photograph below shows 
a portion of the train carrying 
the stock as it started on its 
journey to St. Louis, the du- 
plicate of the bill of lading 
being but for a part of the 
I whole shipment.
