A Message to Readers of the National Nurserjmian 
This work is so unusual that we have hastened to make 
arrangements with the publishers whereby our readers can 
obtain tbe complete work on very favorable terms because 
we know that 
Every reader of the National Nurseryman 
will find it interesting and profitable 
It explains how to grow, what to grow and where to 
grow. It is “commercial” in the real sense because it tells 
the practical man how to make more money plants, flowers, 
fruits, vegetables, shrubs and trees for market. It is the 
best of the experience of the best English writers. It gives 
a thorough grasp of 
The business side of plant growing 
The National Nurseryman, 
Rochester, N. Y. 
Not only the large grower will find it helpful, but the lan¬ 
guage is so untechnical, straightforward and practical that 
it is also 
Invaluable to every private grower 
The illustrations are profuse and produced with that 
thoroughness and beauty for which British books are fam¬ 
ous. Two composite cardboard models of the cabbage and 
potato in natural colors are presented to each subscriber. 
The complete set of four volumes will be sent to you for 
only $1.00 down and $2.00 a month for seven months or until 
$15 is paid. 
Further particulars on request.
