B.

The one hundred apple trees purchased of him last prin? are all alive and doing finely, without any watering, and but ordinary cultivation. Sow, Mr. Editor, I feel it my duty end I believe it to be the daty of every one when we find a man who deals fairly and honestly (especially in the tree to make it known, as many unreliable agents are continually swindling the-pcople with worthless trwes.

I would therefore confidently urge those wish ing to purchase trees to try Mr. Trissell, believing th it tf they try him once, they will try hi in always. KcivctrnlM, I. CHAN KI.L..
