INTRODUCTION 
OR almost half a century “From Glen Brothers” has been 
a guarantee of first quality stock, true to name, handled 
and packed right, delivered to customers in the best 
possible condition. We point with pride to the ornamental 
trees and shrubs in private and public grounds, parks and 
streets; the roses and plants growing and blooming in 
garden and house, the beaming orchards in every fruit 
locality for evidence in regard to how well we are succeeding in our 
endeavor to produce the best. 
Nothing better illustrates the progress of our country, the advance 
in civilization its people are making, and the fact that they are learning 
to live better, than the greatly increased and continuing demand for 
nursery stock, both fruit and ornamental. 
Located near the shores of Lake Ontario, with wide variations of 
temperature, at times 15 degrees below zero, the conditions are ex¬ 
tremely favorable for the production of hardy, robust trees and plants. 
These conditions — with a soil best suited to produce the healthiest 
conditions of growth, namely, that solid, firm texture of the wood, with 
abundant fibrous root, so necessary to successful transplanting—enable 
us to offer the choicest nursery stock with entire confidence to planters 
in all sections of the country. 
Our experience of nearly half a century has taught us that good 
cultivation is of supreme importance, hence we spare no pains or 
expense to maintain the highest efficiency in this direction. 
To the planter or purchaser of nursery stock, at least three things 
are indispensable: first, varieties true to name; second, healthy, vig¬ 
orous, well-matured trees or plants; and third, careful and judicious 
packing, without which all may be lost. 
We give to our packing and shipping careful personal supervision. 
And still further to protect our patrons, as well as ourselves, against 
loss in this direction, we employ the most skilled and competent hands 
to assist us. 
We aim to keep fully abreast of an enlightened and cultivated taste, 
in the introduction of new and valuable varieties of fruit, and valuable 
acquisitions in ornamentals; accepting with pleasure everything that 
has real merit, we shall with equal readiness discard and discountenance 
the sale of worthless humbugs. 
By careful consideration of the wants of our trade and faithful 
attention to business, we are confident we shall continue to merit and 
receive a liberal share of the patronage of lovers and buyers of choice 
fruits and ornamentals.
