Im&.HE OPENING OF ANOTHER YEAR gives us again the opportunity and pleasure of placing 
/'kf?) ourse ' ves before our many friends and patrons in our annual descriptive Catalogue 
for the coming season, which we trust will meet with the same approval granted 
LjJ (d- it heretofore. 
who define their needs, our experience enabling us to select sorts adapted to their particular localities. 
WE USE EVERY CARE to send out stock just as represented : carefully dug, well rooted, in good 
condition. With only ordinary care in planting, this stock will prove a success and a recommenda- 
tion of us to your friends. 
BOTH FRUIT AND ORNAMENTAL STOCK we grow in immense quantities : all the desirable old and 
new sorts, carefully grown with the best skilled nursery assistance. We have, also, all the new and 
improved facilities for handling large or small orders, and feel confident that we can give satisfaction 
to all who place their orders with us. 
OUR RATES are as low as good reliable stock can be grown for. We can put them on a business 
basis, because we do not employ any expensive agents, thus enabling you to save about one-half the 
cost of buying from " irresponsible agents, who handle inferior and often misnamed varieties. Buy 
direct from the nursery, and get what you order ; this will save you many disappointments in the future. 
NO STOCK WILL BE SHIPPED without the following certificate of inspection, showing that our stock 
has been examined and is free from all obnoxious insects or diseases :

THANKING THE PUBLIC for so liberal a patronage in the past, we solicit a continuance of such 
favors, with the assurance that our most careful attention will be given to all orders, large or small, 
intrusted to us. 
P. S. — Parties desiring a more full and complete descriptive catalogue can have same on application, 
with two-cent stamp for postage. 
INTENDING PURCHASERS OF NURSERY STOCK we ask to carefully examine our 
"Agent.” It is experienced and practical, and describes our stock truthfully and 
without exaggeration, giving you the benefit of many years of careful study, re- 
taining and offering only varieties that we know will be of benefit even to the 
inexperienced planter. If requested, we will also select varieties for purchasers 
Yours faithfully,
