Advice and Terms 



OT-GROWN Strawberry Plants should be shipped by express; they cannot well be mailed on 

 account of the heavy ball of earth at the roots, and the delays incidental to freight shipments 

 are often fatal to them. It is customary for nurserymen not to offer ordinary or layer plants 

 until late in the season, for the reason that, during the summer, the plants are putting forth 

 their runners and making their increase, and to disturb the beds at this season causes the de- 

 struction and loss of thousands of unrooted plants 



KNOWING the characteristics of each variety offered, we can often make selections for our patrons 

 better than they can for themselves. When it is desired that we shall do this, please state the general char- 

 acter of the soil to be planted — light or heavy — and whether early, late or a succession of fruit is desired. 



We cannot accept an order of less amount than $1.00. 



Pa\'ments invariably in advance. Goods send C.O.D. only when twenty-five per cent, of the amount is 

 forwarded with order, with return charges added. Remit by Postal Money Order, Registered Letter, New 

 York Draft or Express Money Order, Always enclose remittance with the order 



Everything offered in this pamphlet is packed free of charge and delivered to forwarders, after which 

 our control ceases, consequently our resf>onsibility also. State plainly to what point goods are to be sent. 

 The prices quoted for strawberry plants are for pot-grown plants in all instances and for the quantities 

 specified; but six and fifty of a variety will be supplied at dozen and hundred rates, respectively Less than 

 fift^^ of a variety go at dozen rates. W^e cannot accept orders for less than six plants of a variety of straw- 

 berries. 



A ten per cent, discount off the 100 rate will be granted on lots of 500 or over. 



It is our custom, should the supply of a variety become exhausted, which occasionally occurs in all 

 nurseries, to substitute in its stead a similar sort. When it is desired that we shall not do this, it must 

 be so stated in the order. 



Claims, if any, must be made upon receipt of goods, when they will be carefully and cheerfully examined, 

 and if just, all made satisfactory. Claims made after fifteen days of receipt of -goods will xiot be -entertained. 

 We send out only good plants and in good condition, carefull3- packed in all cases; but success or failure 

 depends, in so large a degree, up>on care and management after received, that we do not, because we cannot, 

 undertake to guarantee stock to live.
