PARCEL POST 
Nursery stock of all kinds is now admitted to the mails at Parcel Post rates. We are 
giving estimated weight of stock when packed and the Parcel Post rates. If you are 
not certain, ask your postmaster which zone Selbyville, Del. is in from your postoffice 
and figure the amount of postage to send. It seems impossible to arrive at the actual 
cost, as some varieties of stock are larger than others, AND WE RECOMMEND if Par- 
cel Post shipment is desired, to remit according to prices in this Catalog, and we will 
ship by P. P. and will instruct your postmaster to collect from you on delivery of stock 
the actual cost of mailing. We will prepay the postage if money is sent for this pur- 
pose, if you order stock to go by Parcel Post and do not send money to prepay postage, 
we will ship by P. P. and instruct your postmaster to collect from you on delivery of 
stock the price of postage. Trees not larger than 3 feet can be sent by Parcel Post. 
We do not recommend Parcel Post except for very small orders, for instance or- 
ders when packed for shipment that weighs 10 lbs. or less, we recommend Parcel Post, 
over this weight we recommend Express. Usually Express is the quicke.st and safest 
way to have all stock shipped. Transportation conditions have recently been greatly im- 
proved and we are pleased to advise shipments again moving to point of delivery very 
prompt and in good condition.

TESTIMONIALS 
Owing to limited space we are only publishing a few of the many letters received 
from our customers who bought stock from us during the spring of 1919. Wish we had 
room for more. We will if you request, give full name and address of any of the let- 
ters published, or others who have written us in regards to the quality of the stock pur- 
chased from us, that you may personally correspond with them in regards to the matter. 
We give our personal attention to all important work in the Nur.serios, and strive to 
please all customers. We are not perfect, but are always ready and do correct any 
mistakes promptly when they are made known to us. Should you place your order with 
us you may rest assured that you will NOT receive any stock that we would not p'ant.
