A RARE OPPORTUNITY 
It is seldom that a thriving nursery is placed upon the 
market for sale and at reasonable terms. Such an oppor¬ 
tunity is however offered to any prospective buyer by a 
business in Wisconsin. We are convinced of the genuine¬ 
ness of this chance and of the possibilities offered to anyone 
seeking either to enter the nursery business or to enlarge a 
present business. Notice will be found in the advertising 
columns. 
DENVER AND THE CONVENTION 
Indications are that this year’s gathering of the Nursery¬ 
men of the United States at Denver, Colorado, June 8th, 
9th and 10th, for the Thirty-first Annual Convention will 
be large and enthusiastic. 
The new secretary, John Hall of Rochester, N. Y., 
expects shortly to issue a circular letter to members setting 
forth the arrangements made for hotel accommodations and 
terms, as well as information concerning railroad rates and 
special offers. The competition on the part of hotels has 
been lively. Those who know anything about “The Queen 
City of the Plains,’’ know also that it is a popular conven¬ 
tion center, and an ideal place for an association like that of 
the American nurserymen to meet in. 
The Entertainment Committee has abeen extremely 
active. Chairman Frank A. Weber, Peter Youngers and 
A. M. Ferguson met in Denver, Feb. 17th, and arranged for 
the following entertainment to be given by the Western 
Nurserymen to the members attending. 
Afternoon of June 8th, the ladies attending the conven¬ 
tion will be given a sight-seeing trip through Denver. 
Afternoon of June 9th, the ladies will be entertained at 
a matinee in one of the theatres; and on 
Friday, June 10th, (subject to the action of the Program 
Committee) the committee has arranged for a sight-seeing 
trip over the Moffat Route to Corona, for the members and 
their wives. This is said to be the finest scenic route out of 
Denver, and has been styled by eminent civil engineers as 
the greatest piece of engineering in the world. Nursery¬ 
men are urged to take advantage of this splendid display of 
hospitality. Luncheon will be served on the trip. A 
special train will leave Denver at a convenient hour-in the 
morning, returning in the late afternoon. Other features 
which will be announced later have also been arranged. 
The Western Nurserymen hope that the members from 
the East will be well represented. Besides those already 
mentioned, the members of the Entertainment Committee 
are: F. H. Stannard, ex-officio; J. W. Hill, C. G. Ferguson, 
and Geo. B. Fra vert.
