RESULT OF INVESTIGATIONS BY GEORGE S. CAKE. 
EDITOR OF “STARK TREE TALK” 
Plant, Dee, Root, are nurserymen as, also, are Faith, 
Hope and Bliss. Stumpp, Holds, Horn, likewise belong to 
the ancient and honorable profession. Poore, Ragg. Hyde 
and Sick are none of the things their names imply. For 
genuine nursery nomenclature we cite you to Vineyard, 
Roquet, Rasin, Wood, Crabb, Elder, Vine, Berry and 
Limbe. By way of spice and variety there are Feast, 
Fine, Silver, Legg, Spear, Pease and Cobb. Then there 
are the Damm brothers. All of which are respectfully 
called to the attention of THE NATIONAL NURSERY¬ 
MAN.

Gentlemen:— 
We’ve hardly time to stop for anything but bus¬ 
iness, but we must renew our subscription to the 
Nurseryman at any rate. It is a pleasant diversion 
to peruse your magazine every month to say the 
least, but we find it full of profit from cover to cover. 
Wishing you success, 
We are very truly, 
Milton Nursery Company. 
Louisiana, Mo., April 20th, 1015. 
We are glad to report that we are going to make an 
excellent clean-up this spring. Business, especially in 
the last few months, has been far above our expectations. 
With the excellent crop outlook we anticipate better 
conditions next season. We believe that when the season 
is over we will have sold more orders than ever before, 
although they will not average quite so large. Our sea¬ 
son is not yet over, and of course, we cannot give a full 
report at this time. 
Yours very truly, 
Lloyd C. Stark.
