Rochester, N.Y., 1857.

The Subscriber, on the occasion of issuing his Annual Circular, would tender his sincere thanks to the Nurserymen of the United States and Canada for their encouraging patronage in the Nursery Label and Printing Business; assuring them that he will continue to execute their orders carefully and promptly as heretofore.

He would also suggest to them the importance of forwarding their orders for Labels as early as practicable after the Fall and Spring Deliveries, so as to secure their early execution, and opportunities of leisure for labeling in the row.

In answer to various inquiries, the undersigned has pleasure in repeating, that these Labels are in common use, and very generally approved, owing to their great convenience and economy===that he has now in operation very ingenious and efficient Machinery for cutting and boring them ready for wiring, with great accuracy, and with such rapidity as to enable him to fill orders promptly, to almost any number or amount that may be sent in. They are found to stand all weather, the print remaining distinct; will lie under and between the branches without liability of breaking off like the cumbrous wooden labels===above all, they save much time, toruble, and expense, and prevent mistakes, in the hurry of packing, every tree having its label, put on in the nursery row at a more leisure time. By this method, also, Proprietors are enabled to put a plainly=printed Label on every tree in Nursery at one=half the cost (counting time in writing) of putting wooden labels on assorted lots only.
