ROBERT BIRRELL, 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 ins care will receive prompt attention, PLANTING. I (Settlers contemplating planting should pro* cure 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 (.hat are blight-proof root and branch, and a large assortment on the blight proof stock guaran* teed blight-proof below the graft. I would cell the special attention of inj tending planters to my stock of Fruit and | Forests Trees, and Ornamental Trees and I Shrubs, which is remarkaby large, varied, and j healthy, this season. To meet the increasing demand I hare ! secured eight acres of land at Northend, 1 within three minutes walk of Dee street, i which is admirably adapted for nursery j purposes. A considerable portion has already j been planted, and, although occupying a very j exposed position, the young trees are strong ; and vigorous, and in excellent condition for ! planting out. 1 THK son. | In that quarter of the nursery where fruit ■ trees and other deciduous plants are mostly I grown, is a light sandy loam, and remarkable j for causing the young stock to make fibrous j roots —one of the best guarantees for the ; success of a young tree when transplanted, j CORRESPONDENCE. To prevent delay and disappointment, cusI tomers are respectfully requested to have their ] names and addresses plainly written, the route Iby which goods_are to be forwarded and postal 1 address to be distinctly stated, and orders to j be made out in regular columns, one article 1 only on a line.
