City Park

The new clearing required team and
labor work in clearing the soil of roots
stones etc. and working upon the
fence. The topgraphical survey &
detailed map of this ground needs to be
taken before a plan can be formulated.

Park Nursery

This Department set 2500 cuttings. 3000
new seeds, transplanted 2000 seedlings, received
the 62 thouand plants, and cared for them.
The percentage of damage is very light in
this stock. Considering the long journey &
extra delays caused by snow blockades.
This Department should now be supplied
with the seeds necessary for temporary
decorations in the parks, as well as
supplied with the seedlings named in a
list presented to your Board some months ago.
If the Nursery Department is properly
supplied, it is the department which
will in a few years save thousands
of dollars to the City in the purchase of trees.
