One of them is to go over the nurseries in such a favorable 
growing time as we are having just now and see how 
well the stock is coming along. It helps us to forget the 
vacant spots which represent Jack Frost’s depredations, 
the freight embargoes of last shipping season and the 
numerous anxieties and uncertainties of the past year. It 
fills us with hope and optimism for the future and assures 
us of being able to furnish stock of the usual high J. & P. 
quality for the coming season. 
We expect to have good supplies of our usual specialties, 
such as Roses, Clematis, Tree Hydrangeas, Ampelopsis, 
also a full line of Perennials, Shrubs, Shade and Fruit 
Trees. Mail inquiries and, where possible, personal inspec¬ 
tion of our stock, are solicited.

A Suggestion

In the North and West, the Lilac is the most popular shrub 
planted. Why do we .see so few of tlie good named varieties ? 
Thousands are sold everj’ year. It is because budded Lilacs 
are largely sold: budding is easy and growth is ciuick; but 
budded Lilacs are not the thing to plant. 
Lilacs budded on Privet are sliort-lived; the Lilac is 
everywhere but the Privet is not.

When budded on lilac seedlings, the stocks will sucker and 
smother the buds; amateurs cannot distinguish the stock 
from the plant; nurserymen can’t either, and that is why they 
hud the colors on the white and the white on purple seedlings. 
Own-root Iiilacs are the only kind to plant; ours are all grown 
from cuttings; a Charles X is a Charles X root and top; as 
Jakey says: “De same number on de coat as on de pants.” 
Sell nothing but Own-root Iiilacs; your customers will be satis¬ 
fied; you won’t get complaints about delivering “privet” and 
"common lilac” when the stocks outgrow the buds.

You can work up a good profitable trade in Evergreens 
if yon have the right kind of stock. Onr main specialty 
for over half a century has been the propagation of young 
Evergreen stock for the wholesale trade in immense quan¬ 
tities at low prices. 
We have all the leading varieties in small sizes, for all 
purposes, suitable for lining out to grow on for yonr trade. 
Nurserymen who have heretofore depended on Europe 
for their young Evergreen plants can now be assured of a 
good reliable source of supply right here in America, and 
we solicit the opportunity of quoting on your requirements. 
“Made in U. S. A.” and “American Stock for American 
Planters” should, from now on, more than ever, be the 
slogan of American Nurserymen for it means “money 
saved in the long run” to start with nice, strong, sturdy, 
vigorous American-grown stock which has been produced 
right here in America. 
YOU want to keep posted on Evergreens; 
WE want to become better acquainted with ynu; 
Let’s get together.
