B. Trissell, the champion fruit tree agent OF
the west, has moved his quarters to Wichita
for the purpose Of still charging the borders
of the old reliable nursery. OF Rose Hill. This
nursery has done wonders for Winfield and
Cowley county. II the old sdage, ga thing Of
beauty is JOY forever our people have
reason to be glad for q life time. The fruit
and ornament al trees that besutify every lot
and door yard in our city viii speak fayerably
of the Rose Hill felix's for years to come.
Through the indomitable pluck OF this firm
they have succeeded in establishing several
branch nurseries-one the Walnut Valley
Nursery, situated in our own county, may be
considered a permanent institution. These
gentlemen are lifelong nurserymen. give
strict attention to business and due regard to
the selection OF stock ordered, sell nothing
bat thrifty, homegrown trees, and have Sc
cured the services of Mr. Thomas Baird, an
old and favoraby known citizen OF Cowley
county. When a good man represents good
firm let him be literally patronized. We I'M
derstand that Mr.. Nixon Elliott, thorough
practical business man, has been associated
with Dir. williams in the Rose Hill nursery
business. We take pleasure in recommend
ing this firm and its branches to Wichita and
Sedgwick county in general. We have tried
them for years and know whereof we speak -
Wiafeld Coa0ier.
Mr. Trissell we find TO be very pleasant
pentleman and full of the go-ahead. The
Cowley county papers express great regret at
losin. him. Dir. L. handles nothing but his
own Kansas grown tress.

family cemeteries, as in this instance,
were the objects Of the greatest care.
