Or 
CATALOGUE OF FRUITS. 


ADVICE TO CORRESPONDENTS. 

CORRESPONDENTS will greatly oblige, by observing, as far as possible, the following 
regulations : 
ist. All orders should be legibly written out on the order sheet herein enclosed ; 
this will save us much trouble, and at the same time prevent mistakes. 
2d.. The names of everything ordered should be plainly written out. 
3d. In ordering Fruit Trees, it should in all cases be stated whether standard 
trees are wanted for orchards, or dwarfs or pyramids for gardens. 
4th. Where particular varieties are ordered, and particular ages and sizes of trees, 
kinds of stock, &c., it should be stated whether, and to what extent, other varieties, 
sizes, ages, &c., may be substituted in case the order cannot be filled to the letter, as 
happens occasionally in all establishments. Our rule is not to substitute in any case, 
without being expressly requested to do so. 
5th. All trees and plants are carefully labelled and packed in the best manner for 
any part of the United States, Canada or Europe, for which a moderate charge is 
made, but no charge is made for the delivery of packages at the railroad or canal. 
6th. It is requested that explicit directions for marking and shipping packages 
accompany each order. Where it is left to us to choose the mode of conveyance, 
- we will exercise our best judgment ; but in all cases the articles are at the risk of the 
purchaser after being shipped; and if delay or loss occurs, the forwarder alone musi be 
held responsible. 
7th. All orders from unknown correspondents must be accompanied with a draft 
on some of the principal cities, or post-office order for the amount. 
Sth. Our customers are requested to notify us instantly of any errors that may 
be committed in filling their orders, in order that we may at once make ample 
amends, as we desire to conduct our business in all respects satisfactorily to those 
who favor us with their confidence.
