Ho>» to Order, Order early. Please use Order Sheet and be sure to write your name and address plainly— 

 give Post Office, Count}^ and State — and do this every time you wi-ite to me: also state distinctly the size or 

 grade of Trees or Plants ordered, and be particular to say alway s how the goods are to be sent — whether by mail, 

 express or freight. Keep a correct copy of the order and check off the Seeds, Trees. Plants, etc.. when they ar- 

 rive. Persons sometimes forget what they order and make unjust complaint. Ladies will oblige me by prefix- 

 ing their names with ^"Miss" or "Mrs.'", as the case may be. The prices of this Catalogue abrogate all previous 

 quotations and are for the Spring of 1899 an\j. 



Seeds. Lovett's Tested Seeds are surpassed b}- none in this country in merit or in vitality and purity. 

 I pay postage on all seeds ordered by the packet, ounce, pound, pint or quart at prices affixed: if ordered to be 

 sent by express or freight the purchaser may deduct ten cents per pound, and five cents per pint, ten cents per quart 

 on Corn; and eight cents per pint, and fifteen cents per quart on Peas and Beans, from the prices quoted. Please note 

 the verif generous Premiums on orders for seeds by the packet and ounce, on Page 



Trees and Plants. I send Trees and Plants bi/ mad postpaid, if requested, wherever so noted in connection 

 with a price. "When the price does not include postage, the rate of postage is given on all mailable articles, 

 under each heading. Where nothing is said as to postage, the goods are unmailable, as in the case of Large 

 Trees. "VThen Plants are to be sent by mail, it must be so stated in the order and the necessary amount for 

 postage included in the remittance. Please note that the rates of postage to Canada on Plants, Etc., are double that 

 of the United States; hence in ordering goods by mail, Canadian customers will please remit double the amount 

 of postage asked for. Nothing by mail at thousand rates. I recommend that Fruit Trees and Plants be shipped 

 by express or freight whenever practicable, as larger stock can then be sent. I particularly caution patrons 

 against ordering Strawberry, Greenhouse, and Herbaceous Plants shipjjed by freight; they should ahcays go by 

 express, or in small lots by mail. The prices quoted are for the quantities specified, but six. fifty and five 

 hundred of a variety will be supplied at dozen, hundi'ed and thousand rates respectively. ^Vith apples, pears, 

 peaches and other Fruit Trees, Jifty in assorted varieties of a class may be ordered at hundi-ed rates and five 

 hundred at thousand rates; but hundred lots of strawberries, raspberries and other Small Fruits cannot be 

 made up at hundred rates, of less than fifty of a variety and thousand lots cannot be made up at thousand rates, 

 of less than five hundred of a variety. 



Additions and Changes. I will do my utmost to comply with the wishes of patrons to pack additions to an 

 order, or subsequent orders in one package, or to make reasonable changes in orders, but / cannot promise to 

 do so. During the rush of the shipping season, when several hundred orders are received and despatched in a 

 day, it would, in some cases, be almost impossible to comply. No (.'hange or coimtermand of an order can be 

 considered as final without my wi'itten consent. 



Packing is executed with the utmost care. Special pains are taken to pack lightly, thereby reducing the 

 expense of transportation to a minimum. All goods at prices quoted are packed free. Everything is labelled. 



Shipping. 1 deliver all goods to forwai'ders here without charge, after which my control ceases, conse 

 quently my responsibility also. Stock shipped west of the Mississippi River hy freight has to be prepaid and 

 orders for stock to such points to be thus shipped must be accompanied by a I'emittance to cover freight charges 

 in addition to amount for same as per quotations; the surplus, if any, will in all f-ases. of course be promptly re- 

 turned to the party ordering. State plainly to what point goods are to be sent. 



Guarantee. 1 warrant my stock true to name, with the explicit understanding th.it should anv not prove so. 

 I will refund the money p^-id or replace it with other stock, but I am not liable for damages beyond this. A sure 

 mdication of the purity of my stock is the fact that customers of former years continue to deal with me. 



Substitution. It is my custom, should the sujjply of a variety be exhausted ( winch will occasionally ovcnv in 

 all establishments), to substitute in its stead a similar sort or give the value jf ir.nothei' grade of the variety 

 named. When it is desired that I shall not do this, it must be so stated in the oider. To simply affix the ^-ords 

 "No substitution'" is all that is necessary. 



Claims, if any, must be made up ""ii receipt of goods, when they will he ciretull> and cheerfully examined 

 and. if just, all made satisfactory. Claims made after fifteen days f i om receipt of goods will not be entertained, 

 I send out only good stock in good condition, carefully packed, in all cases, but success or failure depends in so 

 large a degree upon the care and management after received, that I do not, because I cannot, undertake to 

 guarantee stock to live. 



Special Low Express Rates. By special arrangement we are now able to ship to our cu.'^tomers by any express 

 line, to any part of the country, plants, bulbs, and all other nursery stock at the hundred pounds merchandise 

 rates, less a special reduction of 20 per cent, therefrom. Thus we secure for our patrons a very low express rate 

 on all shipments that do not go by mail or freight.
