Nurserymen? GLADSTONE & NORTHEND NURSERIES, NE-iK I*NVERCAR«ILL. One of the finest collections of Fruit Trees in the Colony. s ROBERT J>IRRELL, in again soliciting the patronage of his numerous customers and the public generally, tenders his sincere thanks for their very liberal support in past seasons, and solicits a " continuance of their patronage, and assures them that all orders entrusted to his care wiil receive prompt attention, PLANTING. Settlers contcmplafing planting should ; procure Trees or Bushes from a nursery situated in an exposed place, as trees raised in sheltered land never succeed so well when removed to more unfavorable localities. BLIGHT PROOF VARIETIES. I have a few varieties of Apple trees that are blight proof, rcot and branch, and large assortment on the blight-proof stock guaranteed blight-proof below the graft. I would call the special attention of intending planters to my stock of Fruit and Forest Trees, and Ornamental Trees and Shrubs, which is remarkably large, varied and healthy, this season. To meet the increasing demand I have socured eight acres of land at Northend, within three minutes walk of Dee street, which is admirably adapted for nursery pur- ' poses. A considerable portion has already been planted, and, although occupying a very exposed position, the young trees are strong and vigorous, and in excellent cop- ' dition for planting out. THE SOIL t. In that quarter of the nursery where fruit trees and other deciduous plants are mostly grown,.isalight sandy loam, and remarkable foi causing the young stock to make fibrous roots— one of the best guarantees for the success of a young tree when transplanted, ' j COBRESPONDENCB. .
