Co Customers OR nearly a quarter of a century the Central Nurseries have main- tained their reputation as not only the largest but the best of all similar institutions west of the Mississippi. The story of their suc- cess is told elsewhere in these pages by the pens of others, this being much the more modest way of putting our best foot foremost. We are not unmindful of the many friends whose patronage and friendship so greatly assisted us. We thank them for favors shown us, and assure them, as well as others whom we trust will become our patrons, that our stock is better now than ever. Our office has been greatly en- larged and our force, both in the office and on the grounds, is better equipped for handling a large business. Our branch nursery enables us to grow our stock under best conditions, and permits of specializing the work so that its managers in a measure become experts in their departments. We shall endeavor to maintain a high degree of excellence, both in quality and management of our stock. OUR METHODS At least three things are indispensable to the planter or purchaser of nursery stock : Varieties true to name, healthy, vigorous, well-matured trees or plants, and careful, judicious packing, without which all may be lost. To the propagation of varieties we give the most careful scrutiny, endeavoring by all methods known to protect ourselves from error or imposition, and rejecting anything of which we have reason to feel suspicious. By such careful and consistent attention, we are warranted in offering our stock as pure and absolutely true to name. Our packing and shipping is given careful personal supervision, and to still further protect our patrons, as well as ourselves, against loss in this direction, we employ the most skilled and competent workmen to assist us.
