From the Philadelphia the flames jumped

fact that time limit exists must discourage
any Senator who is tempted to adopt flibuster

Rarely has the Senate approached a subjec-

exists with regard to the Dominican convention
With the feeling that no action will be taken
until after March 4, Senators are disposed TO de-
vote their time to more imperative matters, and
comparatively little discussion of the details Of
the agreement has occurred, but 1t is noteworthy
that there promises TO be party decision ana
that Democratic Senators seem prepared to deal
with the policy involved and with the treaty it

proving the protocol the Senate should ADOPT a

View in the Apple Tract OF the FamOnt Nursery The Trees Are
Three Years Old and Five to Six Feet in Height

One Of the great essentials to success
full tree growing Ia this section, either
fruit or ornamental, Is hardy and Wig
orous stock. Trees that have been
grown strongly and successfully, well
to the north. possess these traits. In
addition, northern grown stock
starts earlier In the spring, hardens
up for the winter earlier In the fall
and adapts Itself to the new condi-
tions with less loss and disturbance
than II the stock ID carried in the op.
p0site direction. The Fairmont nur.
sery, In southern Minnesota, has a
successful record Ia this direction, and
being within easy reach from this
section, is convenientin that respect.
It iswell worth the while of our readers
to consider the claims and the advan-
tages Of this FIRST class nursery.
A visit to the grounds of the Fairmont
nursery Is revelation. From very
small beginning the industry has grown

solid business institutions of this
section OF the northwest. Still the
present success does not satisfy the
ambitious proprietors and 1t is
more than likely that the passing OF q
few years will see the Fairmont Nur-
sery rival OF the greatest horticultu-
raj enterprises of the country. IT amaz
es one that such great profusion and
numerous varities Of fruit, forest and
ornamental trees, shrubbery, ETC.,
could havessprung up out Of the earth
Ia the short time that this nursery has
been established. The nursery grounds
are q said and compact growth OF
scientifically propagated vegetation,
every twig and bush OF which Is adapt
ed to the rig0rs Of the northwes tern
climate because 1t was developed and
grown here In Minnesota.
Apples are naturally the leading
stock In trade. They are grown in al
most endless abundance and range In
size from mature trees Ia full bearing

aon's growth. Only the standard north
western varieties are grown such as
