PURCHASER'S GUIDE. 
I want your order for Strawberry Plants, but I want it at the right 
time when I know that I can serve you equally as well as anyone, and 
better than a great majority in the business. 
When is the right time ? Any time after November 1 st until May 
I St. March and April is the great planting season, when our entire 
attention and that of a number of helpers is given up to filling plant 
orders, and we want to fill yours. 
From May 1st to May 1 0th we will fill a limited number of orders 
on any stock that is unsold and put in the very best possible order, but 
at purchaser's risk as to results. 
After May 1 0th, during June, July, August, September and Octo- 
ber before the 15th, we most positively will not fill any orders for small 
fruit plants. 
We are willing to answer any questions during the summer months 
as promptly as possible, if written in a short letter and to the point. 
Long letters are subject to long delays. This notice was made neces- 
sary from the fact that we receive a number of orders for strawberry 
plants during the summer months when we have no plants in fit con- 
dition to transplant, and when not one in ten could make even good 
plants grow if we could send them unless they were potted plants ; 
which I do not grow at all. Thanking you for your attention, I remain, 
Yours faithfully, 
GARDNER E. BUNTING.
