the nursery which grows and places
before the public tree or plant life
which is true to type, and not simply
a piece of guess work and as likely to
come out a fir tree as the strawberry
for which it was originally intended.
There are so many of the class of
people one might term with perfect
truth mature fakers,' that the nurs-
eryman who is honest, and backs up
his honesty with expert knowledge is
a rarity and worth doing business
with. The Northwest Nursery Com
pany has its plots of land we'll laid
out, and SO systematized that a GER
tain exactness is symbolical of the
whole. Acre after acre of Seeding,
sprout, tree or shrub bears evidence
of repeated and scientific care, and
with the ever present guarantee that
each and every piece of shrubbery,
tree or plant life going out is indeed
true to name and type. Considerable
business is being done over the North
west, radiating out from Valley City,
and although there are many nurseries
now in the field, there is always room
at the top.
