LEESLEY BROTHERS NURSERIES 
How our office grounds look after four years of growth 
nursery. We have an area 
of 110 acres in the most fertile 
district of Illinois and all 
devoted to the raising of 
hardy ornamental stock. We 
rent considerable areas of land 
upon which to grow material, 
and also are heavy importers 
of stock from Europe where 
certain classes of plants are 
grown better than America 
can produce. Our nursery is crossed by two branches of the C. & N.-W. 
Railway, with a private switch, warehouse and packing sheds; the C. M. 
& St. P. Railway is at a short distance, all the express companies are 
near by, so we have unexcelled facilities for shipping stock. 
Our business is conducted direct with the customers from our office 
at the Nursery. We employ no agents but upon request of anyone con¬ 
templating planting we will send our representative who will supply 
you with the necessary information. 
Correspondence in regard to plants or planting is cordially invited. 
O UR NURSERY is situated in the northwestern part of the city 
and is easily reached either by the C. & N.-W. Ry. from Peter¬ 
son Avenue station or by North 40th Street car line which runs 
within one-half a mile of the
