January 1908, the business of F. W. Kelsey, a dealer and

ment under Mr. Kelsey’s management, announces to its 
patrons and all interested, that on and after this date said 
Sales Department will be conducted under entirely new 
management, all of the interest of F. W. Kelsey in the

A PROTEST FROM A RETAILER 
The National. Nurseryman Co.: 
Please call the attention of the wholesale dealers and 
growers to the fact that unless they, the growers and deal¬ 
ers, stop furnishing trees and plants at wholesale to con¬ 
sumers, and planters the retail nurseryman will be driven out 
of business. I have found this same practice has prevailed 
for years. It will either make the retail dealer either grow 
his own stock or entirely ignore the wholesale growers and 
dealers’ price lists. Please raise the question through your 
valuable Journal whether the growers will agree not to sell 
anyone unless they are engaged in selling as a livelihood, 
a general line of nursery stock, and oblige, 
Riverside, R. I. * W. P. Rogers.
