CoNCLUDixG Notice, In consequence of the railroad which connects 

 Flushing with the city of New York being laid through our largest 

 Nursery of fifty acres, we will supply Nurseries, and others requiring 

 large numbers of Trees at reduced rates ; as that portion of our lands is 

 required for building-lots. We especially suggest to younger Nurseries 

 the importance to them of securing genuine warranted Fruit Trees of 

 our superior varieties, many of which are not obtainable elsewhere. 



All Trees, tfec, are labeled and packed in a superior manner, in 

 matted bales or boxes, so that it is scarcely possible that any can be in- 

 jured, and we charge for the packing barely enough to cover the actual 

 cost. We ship the packages, or send them by Kailroad, or by Transpor- 

 tation Lines, or by Express Lines, precisely as ordered, and we forward 

 the receipt for the packages with the Invoice; and there is, consequently, 

 the best security for their safe transmission to the purchaser. After 

 being thus delivered, they are entirely at the risk of the purchaser ; but 

 the Transportation Lines are responsible for any lost packages, and their 

 value can be recovered from them.
