known and Justly celebrated Geneva
Nurseries, winch are, situated near the

acres.
These Nurseries were established In
! the year 1916 by MeSsrs. William and
Thomas Smith, the present propristors.
and are now the largest IN he country.
A thorough inspection OF the various
departments of these Nurseries eyinces
the fact that every possible care and
precaution is taken In the dissemination
OF varieties, and so thorough IS The sys-
tenn that il is almost impossible fcs an
error to occur.

Trees for this remote section aIt

It is a notable fact that the trees
grown III the Geneva Nurseries trans
plant better than those raised IN any
other section, withstanding severe cold
and extreme heat, with no injury. The
soil produces healthy, long lived trees
