INTRODUCTION 
F 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. 
Located near the shores of Lake Ontario, with variations in 
temperature from 90 degrees above to 20 degrees below zero, 
with evenly distributed and bountiful rainfall, rich but shallow soil, 
we have a combination producing a quality of stock superior in root- 
formation, thriftiness and hardiness. 
To these natural advantages we have added the experience of 
years, and have spared no efforts or expense in the culture of our 
stock. Root systems, so fundamentally necessary to the successful 
transplanting of a tree, are produced to a degree seldom equaled. 
Ample space for symmetrical development is allowed each plant. 
Above all, we exercise a care in digging, packing and grading our 
products to such a high quality standard that our trees are now best 
known by the results they have produced in every State in the Union. 
We will at all times be found willing to correct mistakes that 
may occur. While we do not guarantee the growth of our plants, we 
will, when satisfactory explanations of failure are given, allow con¬ 
cessions to anyone that may have suffered an undue proportion of 
loss with our products. 
In purchasing shrubbery, considerations like these count for more 
than mere economy in price, when obtained at the sacrifice of quality. 
For weak, diseased or inferior nursery stock means not only loss of 
money and loss of time in getting results, but disappointment and 
the danger of contamination to plants you may already have. 
Glenwood Nursery is inspected annually by the State Ento¬ 
mologist and a certificate pronouncing the stock free from all insects 
designated as dangerous pests and apparently healthy in every 
respect, will be attached to every shipment. We are prepared to 
fumigate with hydrocyanic gas all or any nursery stock when State 
laws or customers require such treatment.
