 is lacking, value is destroyed. Only when you have 

 the combination of high quality and low prices does 

 real value exist."

 the heaviest yielding strains grown 



CLAIMS AND ADJUSTMENTS 



All claims if any must be made within five days from 

 date you received your shipment, along with a signed 

 statement from your Express Agent or Postmaster, show- 

 ing extent of damage, so that we can make the proper 

 adjustment with you if necessary. We are not responsible 

 for stock purchased after this time expires. Continued 

 growth, as we all know, depends on weather conditions, 

 soil, planting and care, which is out of our hands and 

 have no control over. 



WE ARE PACKING CONFIDENCE 

 IN EVERY BUNDLE PLANTS SENT OUT 



For more than forty years the Townsend's 

 Nurseries have been run on a square deal plan. 

 We have tried to pack confidence and value into 

 every package of plants that we have ever sent 

 out. 



We realized in the beginning that first we 

 must gain your confidence, and in order to hold 

 it we must give you the same square deal every 

 time you come to us with your order. 



WE NEVER SACRIFICED QUALITY 



TO MAKE A LOW PRICE 



Every Townsend plant has all the quality 

 built into it that such an organization knows 

 how to build. We contribute this quality, to- 

 gether with our fair and courteous treatment 

 of every customer to our success. Mass pro- 

 duction and low prices without quality may go 

 for a time, but no lasting trade can be built 

 on any product except where Quality is present. 

 Our motto has always been to grow the best 

 quality plants possible, and to make the lowest 

 possible price.
