NOTICE. 



Parties ordering will confer a .particular favor by using the " order 

 sheet," as it is a great saving of time to. us, as well as insuring the more 

 correct filling of orders; nothing is more annoying while we are crowded 

 with business, than to get orders muddled up through the body of the letter. 

 Such mixed up orders are invariably thrown aside by our clerks, to be at- 

 tended to last. 



It will be observed that we have made a reduction of nearly twenty-five 

 per cent, in our prices this season, from what they have been for the past 

 six years. This we are enabled to do by our largely increased area of glass 

 structures, and our improved labor-saving arrangements in the propagating 

 and growing of plants. Last season we disposed of nearly a million plants 

 This season we are prepared for an increase on that number. 



we begin" shipping as soon as ouk catalogue is issued. in 

 January, and by the precautions taken against frost, seldom 

 have a case injured. 



Every order is sent the day after it is received, unless otherwise 

 ordered; provided the article ordered is in proper condition to send. 



The system of packing adopted is now so complete, that although we 

 send out many thousands of packages annually to every State and territory 

 in the Union, it is rare to receive a complaint, while we receive hundreds 

 of letters attesting satisfaction at the light, simple, and safe method we 

 practice, and the fine condition in which the plants arrive. 



No charges for boxes, baskets, or packing. Orders from unknown corres- 

 pondents, unless accompanied by a remittance, or satisfactory reference in 

 New York City will be sent by Express, C. 0. D. From this Rule we make 

 no deviation. 



It will always be to the interest of purchasers to leave the selection of 

 vii leties, as far as possible, to us, when full sets are not taken, as it is very 

 diiiicult to judge of the merits of varieties by descriptions. When selections 

 are left to us, persons may always rely on receiving better plants, if not 

 better sorts, for, in selecting themselves, perhaps the variety selected we 

 may happen to have no good plants of. 



Every order selected, is, as far as possible, under our direct supervision ; 

 no plant is allowed to go out of our establishment unless it be well rooted, 

 and in a healthy condition, except, perhaps, occasionally, in the case of new 

 plants, where the demand has been so great that the time has not been 

 sufficient to get them in proper condition. In all such cases, we either 

 allow a reduction in price, or add plants in value extra to compensate. 



Our establishment is situated at the Horse Railroad Junction, Bergen 

 District of Jersey City, N. J., less than two miles from Jersey City ferry. 

 Horse cars every ten minutes — time from office in New York, 30 minutes. 



Post Office Address is
