SPECIAL NOTICE. Onnrcount of the brittlenessot 

 the bark on Clematis it crncks very easily, and many 

 people believe the plant to be permanently iujuiert 

 when such is not the case We issue this notice on

 We wish to say, also, thatwe examine all plantscare- 

 fully before shipping, to see that they are in good con- 

 dition, and if they die after being planted, as must 

 sometimes happen, ne do not agree to replace tbem.
