inspection of our Nursery, and we are furnished with a certificate stating that 
it is apparently free in all respects from contagious or infectious disease or 
diseases, San Jose scale, or other injurious insect pest or pests. 
As an additional precaution, we have built on our packing-grounds a 
scientifically constructed fumigating-house, and every tree and plant before 
shipment is fumigated with hydrocyanic acid gas. The expense of this fumiga- 
tion is not mconsiderable, but it enables us to give our customers an absolute 
guarantee that our stock is free from all insect pests. 
We offer this stock for sale through a large force of reliable and responsi- 
ble salesmen and deliver it at the homes of our customers. We accept orders 
for only such varieties as we can furnish, in order that we may guarantee our 
stock to be true to name. Should any item prove not to be true to label, 
through a mistake of our handlers, the purchase price will be refunded or other 
stock furnished, at the option of the purchaser. 
" Transplanting and After-Culture ^'^ 
This is the title of our pamphlet giving full directions for the transplanting 
and care of fruits and ornamental nursery stock. It is practical in every sense, 
and we believe it to be the most complete work of its kind ever published for 
free distribution. A copy will be sent free of charge to every customer and 
to those interested in fruit culture or ornamental gardening who will send us 
their names and addresses, 
Very respectfully, 
THE CHASE NURSERIES
