TERMS. i 
Ouv terms are invariably cash. Keiniltauces may bo made, aecordiufj to the | 
amount of orders, by Express or Postal Money Orders, Registered Letters, Banlc 
Drafts and Express. Very small amounts (50 cents to ,|1.00) can be sent in post- : 
age stamps of two and five cents. 
PACKING. ! 
We want onr patrons to bear well in mind that "good packing" is the ' 
cheapest part of a bill of trees. | 
The very best way of packing trees is in boxes made out of li<;ht lumber. i 
We charge only for the cost of the box— nothing for packing. The average j 
cost of a box of 9 to 12 feet long is from $1.00 to S;2.f)0, according to height and | 
width. 
Onr way of baling (for small orders) is in sackcloth and pine needles, which 
make a very light packing. Charges for baling moderate. , 
SPECIAL NOTICE. 
No trees offered for sale but our oivn mountain-grown trees, and the imported 
sorts as specified on Catalogue and Price List. 
Boxes, bales and packages delivered free of charges to the railroad or express 
office. 
After shipment, goods at purchaser's risk. Any errors made immediately 
corrected . 

EXPRESS CHEAPER RATES. j 
We have made no ".special" arraugemeuts with Wells Fargo & Co., as some [ 
nurserymen claim they did, but as the Express Company have established special , 
rates for trees and shrubs packed in the very way we pack ours, we are therefore I 
able to ship bales by Express to any place on railroad lines at a much reduced j 
rate. By this arrangement customers can have their orders sent by Express i 
almost as cheap, and in some cases cheaper, than by freight. 
CAUTION. 
We would caution our patrons against buying from agents purporting to be 
ours, as we have no agents whatever throughout this State or Oregon, or, 
in fact anywhere else, for the sale of our valuable kinds of Nut and Fruit \ 
I Trees. And we would like, particularly, to call the attention of the Oregon 
I public to the deception that unscrupulous people are trying to play upon them 
I in regard to Nut Trees of all sorts, for we know of parties trying to pass, for 
' instance, seedling trees of the Wnyette-Shaped PrtBparturiens (formerly Large- ' 
fruited Projparturiens), a kind originated by us and propagated solely by grafting, 
j for the great market walnut, the Mayette, and which are nothing else but third 
generation Prreparturiens seedlings, bearing a small, very inferior nut, with noth- 
! iug of the Mayette, any way, about it; also common Italian chestnut seedlings 
' for the fine grafted varieties of ours: Read the description of the wood and leaves 
I that we are giving in this catalogue of each of our Grafted Marron chestnuts; and 
' bear in mind, if the same parties should try to pass yon the Common Languedoc 
or any other variety of Almond, for the "Grosse Tendre," that the latter has 
"drooping " habits, and that the fraud could be easily detected. j
