Preface to Revised Catalogue. 
YOU arc cordially invited to glance through our Catalogue, for we believe you will find 
something that will interest you and something that will beautify your garden and 
lawn. The enlargement of our Nursery enables us to grow almost any stock that may 
be desirable. We have in cultivation about one hundred and fifty acres. We are growing all 
the new trees and plants of real value which are introduced from time to time, and offer 
many valuable novelties. It would be impossible in the limits of this Catalogue to quote all 
the varieties of stock we grow. We can supply many varieties not mentioned here, and 
solicit correspondence from parties desiring stock not quoted. Parties from a distance 
wishing to visit our Nurseries will be met at Elizabeth Station by appointment. Please 
state what railroad and train. See time table from New York on third page of cover. Our 
prices quoted are for first-class stock that cannot be sold by any first-class firm for any less 
money, in fact, they are extremely low for such stock as we send out. You will find our 
prices 50 per cent, lower than agent's — for we employ no agents — therefore give the 
advantage to the customer. 
SHIPPING FACILITIES UNEXCELLED. Being located at the junction of several 
lines of railroad, and with three express companies. Special express rate, 20 per cent, less 
than any other merchandise. 
WHEN BEST TO ORDER. Order now; do not wait until you are ready to plant. 
Your order will not be shipped until the proper time, or until you wish it. 
HOW BEST TO REMIT. Remit by Bank Draft, Post Office or Express Money 
Order, or Registered Letter. 
GOODS WILL BE SENT C. O. D. if desired, but in such cases, one-fourth of the 
amount should accompany the order. 
NO CHARGE MADE FOR PACKING. All stock delivered to the railroad or 
express offices here. 
GUARANTEE. 
While we exercise the greatest care to have all trees, shrubs and plants sold by us true 
to name and free from disease, and hold ourselves prepared to replace, on proper proof, all 
that may prove to be otherwise, we do not give any warranty, expressed or implied, with 
respect to them; and all such goods are sold upon the express condition and understanding 
that in case any of them prove to be untrue to name, unhealthy or otherwise defective, we 
shall not be held responsible for a greater amount than the original price of the goods. 
WE CLAIM THE RIGHT to substitute with similar sorts when out of any variety, 
unless " No Substitution " is plainly stated in the order.
