being driven TO the various departments Of
this vast nursery.
In an experience Of over forty years We
do not remember to have passed through an
establishment where so large mum ber OF

thoroughly systemized, and where bus

Ii is not in the soil Of every farm that one
finds qualities esscnt al to the growth OF
the different kinds of Nursery stock, hen C
it has devolved upon these gentlemen, who
were born TO the Nursery business, To select
from among the hills and valleys of the two
Pixies such portions as are adapted TO their
purposes. But in this very fact Of sci ct;on
of soil, we see the exceeding care for the
future success of their ock.
Missouri and Illinois have no more worthy
institutions than the STARK Nurseries, ana
surely no better or more representative

growing on their hands as it deserves TO

They have a system of 1900 acres of COM

L. Greene, of the Connecticut Life Ia
surance Co., of Hartford, had iSsuci a
circular letter to policy holders notify
ing them that in the event that the
government adopted the free coinage

Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle,
with request for an expression on the
subject He has received a reply from
Mr.. Carlisle, which is in part as fol-
lows:
In case free coinage OF silver should be
established in this country presume insur-
ance companies and all other institutions
would continue II make their payments by
checks and drafts IN banks as heretofore but.
in my opinion, the whole volume Of our cur
rency woul1 sinh 1T once t. the silver basis
and these checks and irafts would be paid in
silver dollars or THEN quiyalent in gold or its
equivalent. as is now the case /
presume ont supposes for a
moment that it would be the duty of the
government to at:emp: 10 keep the
standard silver dollar coined free for private
ind viduals and corporations, equal 10 value to
a gold dollar: or. in other words tia it would
be the duty OF the government to attempt un-
der system OF free coinage to maintain the
parity OF the two metals The dollars would
be coined on private account and delivered to
private individuals and corporations as their
own property, tie government having no inter-
est whatever in them, and bein-, therefore,
under no Obligation TO sustain them by guar
anteeing their value.
Under our existing system all silver dollars
aIe coinei on account Of the government and
are issued by the government in payment OF its
expenditures ami other obligations. and Is
would be an act Of bad faith, therefore. to per-
nit them 10 depreciate. Very truly.
