PLEASE READ THIS PAGE CAREFULLY 



SPECIAL NOTICE 



The best assurance for you of the purity of our stock, and evidence of the extreme 

 care we exercise in keeping it clean and true to name is that we number among our 

 best customers thousands who, year after year, continue to select our stock exclusively 

 for their needs. Should any stock prove otherwise, we shall be happy to immediately 



I replace it, or to return the money paid, but it is understood that we are not liable for 

 any amount beyond our replacement or refund offer. Certificate of inspection is at- 

 tached to each shipment. 



HOW TO ORDER. To insure receipt of stock when wanted, order as early as possible. 



Use our standard order blank, as we can more quickly check and 



fill order. Be sure that your name and address are clearly written. In your address give post 

 office, county and state, and state clearly to what points goods are to be sent. If shipping 

 address is different than residence post office, be sure that you give us the correct shipping 

 point. To avoid error, and to check off plants when they arrive, keep a correct copy of your 

 order. Ladies will oblige us by prefixing their names with "Mrs." or "Miss." No change or 

 countermand of an order may be considered as final without our written consent. 

 SIZE OF ORDER. Because of the care we take in packing, wrapping, etc., of all orders, and 



the cost of entering, recording and billing, we can not undertake to fill 



an order for less than one dollar. 

 SUBSTITLJTION. 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, properly labeled, of course. When it is desired that we shall not do this, it must be so 

 stated in the order. To simply affix the words "No Substitution" is all that is necessary. 

 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 labeled. 

 SHIPPING. We deliver all goods to forwarders here without charge, after which our control 



ceases, consequently our responsibility also. We particularly caution patrons 



against ordering Perennial Plants and Strawberry Plants shipped by freight; they should al- 

 ways go by express, or in small lots by mail. Transportation charges on all goods shipped by 

 freight or express are to be paid by the purchaser, unless arranged otherwise. 

 ALL CANADIAN SHIPMENTS, either by express or mail, must have transportation 



charges prepaid. Customers will oblige us, there- 

 fore, by adding sufficient funds to cover this item. 

 SHIPMENTS BY PARCEL POST. Many plants offered can be shipped to advantage 

 by parcel post, especially to nearby points. On in- 

 side back cover page will be found a table of rates and of weights of such things as may be 

 forwarded by mail, by which patrons are enabled to determine the cost of postage. In order- 

 ing shipment by parcel post, please do not omit to send the proper amount to cover cost of 

 stamps, together with cost of insurance. 

 TERMS. Payment should be made at time of ordering or before shipment. We prefer to make 



no shipment C. O. D., but will, when requested, ship in this way, provided twenty-five 



per cent, of the amount of an order is sent with the order, with return charges added. Kindly 

 remit by Postal Money Order, Registered Letter, Draft, or Express Money Order. Please do 

 not ask us to open accounts for less than ^10.00 orders. 



Prices in this catalog cancel previous quotations. The prices quoted are for the quantities 

 specified, but six, fifty or five hundred of a variety will be supplied at dozen, hundred, and 

 thousand rates respectively. Hundred lots may not be made up at hundred rates of less than 

 fifty of a variety. 



CLAIMS, if any, should be made upon receipt of goods, when they will be carefully and cheer- 



fully examined and, if just, all made satisfactory. Claims made after fifteen 



days from receipt of goods will not be entertained. We endeavor to 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 we do not, because we cannot, 

 undertake to guarantee stock to live.
