GREETINGS for 1922 



^ I ^HANK. you again for your splendid patronage. Last 

 year was anotner good year witn me. My old cus- 

 tomers Avere witK me again and with tnem came aoout as 

 many more new ones. I received nearly tAvice as many 

 orders last spring as I ever received a season oerore. I ex- 

 pect botK my old and new customers to stay witn me and 

 I telieve you will appreciate tne service I am trying to 

 give and tKe kigk quality of tke stock I lurnisK. 



I have never grown better stock than 1 have this year. You old 

 customers know what this means and to you who have never re- 

 ceived any stock from me I would like to have at least a part of your 

 order so that you may see the kind of stock I furnish and I believe 

 you will then be a regular customer of mine. 



You will notice that I do not have a great long list of varieties. 

 I have tried to select only the very best sorts in fruits, ornamentals 

 and flowers — the kind you will not go w^rong on in planting. 



Wishing you all the very best of success in your efforts to ac- 

 complish the most possible in the way of more and better fruits and 

 in making the home more beautiful, I am 



Very truly yours, 



LEAMON G. TINGLE. 



Instructions to Purchasers 



Some nurserymen and seedsmen refuse to fill orders for 

 less than one dollar; saying a smaller order is a loss to them. 

 This is true, but I will be glad to receive your order, even 

 though it means a loss to me in filling it, as I believe you will 

 be so well pleased with what I send you that when you need 

 any more of the stock I sell you will send your order to me. 

 So, do not hesitate in sending me your order even though it 

 may be a small one. We will try just as hard to please you 

 as if it was a large one. 



TERMS. Payment invariably, cash in advance. Remit by 

 Money Order, Registered Letter or Draft. 



HOW TO ORDER. Send me your order as soon as conven- 

 ient, then I will reserve the stock for you and ship when want- 

 ed. Be sure to write your name and address plainly, and state 

 how goods are to be shipped ; whether by Parcel Post, Ex- 

 press or Freight, and state plainly to what point you want them 



TRANSPORTATION RULES. The ownership of all goods 

 sold by me passes to the purchaser on delivery by me to the 

 carrier, and the issuing of a receipt by the carrier ends my re- 

 sponsibility. Any claims for damage should be made promptly 

 to the agent at the point of delivery. Under no conditions may 

 I be held responsible for safe delivery. 



SHIPPING SEASON. I begin filling orders about October 

 15th, sometimes a little earlier and continue digging and ship- 

 ping during the entire fall, winter and spring until May 1st. 

 We are sometimes delayed in January and February and early 

 part of March by freezing weather, but usually able to ship at 

 times during these months. 



TRUE TO NAME. I use every care to have plants true to 

 name and I will not be responsible for any sum greater than 

 the original cost of slock should any prove not true to name. 



CLAIMS, if any, must be made on receipt of goods, and if 

 just, will be made satisfactory. I send out only good stock m 

 good condition, carefully packed in all cases, but success or 

 failure depends in so large a degree upon the care and manage- 

 ment after received that I do not, because I cannot, undertake 

 to guarantee stock to live. 



SUBSTITUTION. Late in the season I usually run short oi 

 some varieties listed herein ; therefore, when you order late, 

 please state on order sheet if you do not want me to substitute 

 should I be sold out of the variety you order. If I substitute 

 will give you a variety as near like the variety you ordered as 

 possible. Oi. X 



INSPECTION. A Certificate of Inspection from our State 

 Entomologist and State Pathologist will be attached to each 

 and every shipment of stock. 



Special Prices. I quote very attractive prices on large or- 

 ders. Send me vour want list for quotations. 



Telegraph or telephone me at Pittsville, Md.
