GREETINGS 



J922 



I take great pleasure in sending you herewith my annual strawberry 

 plant catalogue. But I wish first of all to thank you for your liberal patron- 

 age the past season and for your kind w^ords for my plants. Some of you 

 have not only sent me your order but recommended me to your friends and 

 I received their orders also; I surely appreciate this and to prove it I will 

 strive to give better service than ever and will give all orders, large or small, 

 the same prompt and careful attention. I have selected these varieties, the 

 cream of the list in each seasoin, early, mr^^«HS©'nv'afi^ late and have given 

 a brief description of each. My prices too as^you will notice have been very 

 much reduced in most varieties as I wish to do my part by my customers 

 in this general re-adjustment of prices and have made them as low as is 

 consistent with high quality, efficient service and a square deal. In asking 

 for your patronage again this year I do so assuring you that you will receive 

 the same liberal treatment and plants of the same high grade and that you 

 cannot buy better plants or plants that produce more or better fruit no mat- 

 ter what you pay or where you get them. To those who have not dealt with 

 me I ask a trial confident in my ability to serve you to your satisfaction. 



As to my reliability I refer you to The Salisbury Building Loan & Bank- 

 ing Association of this city. 



Thanking you for past favors and wishing you all a happy and prosper- 

 ous year, I remain. 



Sincerely yours, 



M. S. PRYOR. 



INSTRUCTIONS TO PURCHASERS 



Orders — Should be sent as soon as 

 possible after you receive this cata- 

 logue and I will reserve plants for you 

 and ship when wanted. In ordering be 

 sure to write your name and address 

 plainly and give your post office, 

 county and state every time you 

 write. 



Terms — Payments must be made in 

 advance. Remittance may be made 

 by Post Office or Express Money Or- 

 der, Registered Letter or Bank Draft. 

 U. S. Postage Stamps will be accepc- 

 ed for fractional part of a dollar. If 

 not convenient to remit full amount, 

 when order is sent, remit 1-3 of the 

 amount of the order and I will book 

 your order for you and you can send 

 balance when convenient, before 

 shipment. 



True To Name — While I use every 

 precaution to have all plants true to 

 name (and I believe I come as near 

 doing this as any one in the business) 

 I will not be responsible for any 

 amount greater than the cost of the 

 stock should any prove otherwise 

 than as represented. 



1 Guarantee — that all orders will 

 be delivered to the carrier in first 



class condition, further than this I 

 can not guarantee as I have no con- 

 trol over shipment after it leaves my 

 hands and claims if any should be 

 made promptly upon receipt of plants 

 and if just will be made satisfactory. 

 If shipment has been unusually long 

 on the road examine same and if 

 spoiled refuse shipment and notify 

 me at once or if accepted have agent 

 make notation on your express bill as 

 to condition. Unless you do this you 

 can not make collection of claim. 



Shipping Season — I can ship to 

 southern customers during mild 

 weather any time after you receive 

 this catalogue and I can usually ship 

 to northern customers until the first 

 of May. I can fill no orders during the 

 summer months as I do not grow pot- 

 ted plants. 



My Plants are dug fresh for your 

 order from new beds that have not 

 borne fruit,trimed ready for planting 

 and tied in bunches of 25 and packed 

 in light ventilated crates with plenty 

 of damp moss so they will carry safe- 

 ly. I make no charge for crates or 

 packing.
