FRUIT AND ORNAMENTAL TREES. 
RARE CHANCES OFFERED. 
200,000 Clioiee Fvu.it Ti-ees, Vines, etc., for 
Bale, of varied size to suit customers. 
The subscriber calls attention to his unusually large stock 
of well grown trees now on hand, and especially to the pre¬ 
sent stock of the standard fruit, Apple, which is the 
largest and finest ever offered at these Nurseries. 
With twenty years of experience, by careful observation 
and judicious selections, he believes he is able to judge and 
furnish what will suit his customers, as well as the varied 
soils and localities in which trees may be wanted. There is 
also special attention paid to local varieties, adapted to 
Southern and Central Pennsylvania, many of which have 
proven themselves more valuable, than sorts originating in 
a climate differing so widely from these sections. 
He is also preparing a list of club pp.ices for those who 
purchase direct from the proprietor, offering rare induce¬ 
ments for neighbors to join together and get trees consider¬ 
ably under the regular retail prices. 
This mode is adopted for those who may not have an op¬ 
portunity to purchase from his regularly authorized agents, 
and hold a mistrust towards the too numerous tree venders 
spread over the land. 
The frequent use made of his name and establishment 
by strangers, to effect sales where the reputation of the 
nursery is known, compels him to warn all not to purchase 
—as coming from these Nurseries—stock offered by pre¬ 
tenders, who do not hold an authority from the proprietor. 
Local or stationed agents will be accepted, but neither 
traveling nor stationary agency inquiries will receive notice, 
unless the parties produce satisfactory reference as to their 
honesty in dealing with customers and employer. Send for 
Catalogues and priced List, which contain inducements not 
before offered by him. Abundant and trustworthy ref¬ 
erence WILL BE FURNISHED TO ALL WHO ARE STRAN¬ 
GERS TO THE ESTABLISHMENT.

ESTABLISHED 1842 
During the past Twenty Years, Messrs. MUNN CO., in 
connection with the publication of the Weekly Illustrated 
Scientific American, (the only paper devoted to the Me¬ 
chanic Arts in the Country), have acted as Attorneys for pro¬ 
curing Letters Patent in the United States and all foreign 
countries ! 
They would state that they have acted, during this period, 
as agents for more than 
Twenty Thousand Inventors ! 
In fact, they have become identified with the whole brother¬ 
hood ot inventors aud paientees, at home and abroad. Thou¬ 
sands of inventors for whom they have taken patents, have 
addressed to them most flattering testimonials; and the wealth 
that has inured to the inventors whose patents were secured 
through their Office, and afterwards illustrated in the Scien¬ 
tific American would amount to many millions of dollars ! 
Messrs. MUNN & CO. never had a more efficient corps of 
Draughtsmen and Specification Writers than those employed 
at present; and they are prepared to attend to patent business 
of all kinds, in the quickest time and on the most liberal 
terms. 
For further information, send for a pamphlet which con¬ 
tains the "Patent Laws of the United States, and much other 
valuable information of importance, to inventors and all others 
who own patent property. Also pamphlets of information 
furnished regarding the Patent Laws of all Foreign Coun- 
tries. ^ , 
For further particulars address MUNN & CO., 37 Park-row, 
New York; or corner F and 7th streets (opposite Patent 
Office), Washington, D. C.
