A MODEL HORTICULTURAL ESTABLISHMENT. 
The Oaklands Nursery and Green ITouse 
of J. B. Eaton & Co., Buffalo, comprises one 
of the finest Horticultural establishments in 
this country. During a recent visit to Buffa¬ 
lo, we passed some hours very pleasantly at 
“ Oaklands,” and were most agreeably surprised 
and delighted to find so complete and perfect 
an establishment. Compared with Rochester 
—which probably has the most celebrated and 
extensive Nurseries of any place in the Union 
—Buffalo is comparatively little known horti- 
culturally; yet “ Oaklands” surpasses any thing 
in its line in the “ Flour (more properly Flow¬ 
er) City,” and must become widely and favora¬ 
bly known. The establishment is altogether 
most creditable to the proprietors, and Buffalo, 
—and we wish every village and city in the 
land were equally favored. Horticulturists, 
professional or amateur, passing through our 
sister city, will find that a visit to “ Oaklands ” 
will prove a good investment. 
We intended to give a brief description of 
the establishment at “ Oaklands,” but find so 
complete a notice of it in a late number of the 
Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, that we pre¬ 
fer quoting therefrom. The Commercial says: 
The approach to the Green Houses is over 
an extensive lawn, beautifully diversified with 
roads and paths, and dotted with clumps of 
trees and parterres of flowers. The Green 
Houses are entered from the front, into the 
Conservatory, an octagonal structure, 30 feet 
in diameter; in the centre is a “rockery,” now 
occupied by a tasteful disposition of an im¬ 
mense family of the Cacjtii in superb bloom; 
the sides are lined with climbing roses of rare 
varieties. Passing through the Conservatory
