TAKE YOUR HELP IN PARTNERSHIP WITH YOU 
The age of master and man is past and those who can 
quickest adjust themselves to the new order of things 
are most likely to be successful in business. 
If you can arrange it on both a profit and loss shar¬ 
ing basis so much the better, but arrange it you must if 
your business is larger than a one man concern. 
Due to the fact that the nursery business has such a 
brief portion of the year when it can market its products, 
the balance being a period when there is no income to 
offset the jiay roll, the nurserymen cannot pay wages 
the year round that will compete with other and more 
profitable occupations, so it is up to him to tie his help 
to their jobs by giving them an interest in it that will 
hold them and develoj) the best there is in them.
