Bismarck, N. Dakota, November 7, 1914. 
Editor, “National Nurseryman,” 
Dear Sir:— 
I notice in your last issue a protest against the New 
York State government going into the nursery business 
in competition with those who are nurserymen for a livli- 
hood, and are obliged to pay taxes to assist in destroying 
their own business. 
Here in North Dakota we are up against tougher prop¬ 
ositions as the State School of Forestry gives away their 
immense products and the U. S. Government has estab¬ 
lished The Great Plains Station and olfer free to all 
comers enough stock to plant one-half acre of land. It 
begins to look as if the nurserymen and seedsmen would 
be driven out of business and be compelled to assist in 
I he operation by the taxes they have to pay. 
If the State and National Government furnish seeds 
and nursery stock free, why not furnish every thing free 
to everybody 
Yours truly, 
Oscar II. Will.
