I N accordance with our annual custom, we have pleas- 
ure in again presenting you with our new Catalogue 
for Spring, which we trust will meet with the same 
appreciation as in the past. We have an unusually fine and 
large stock to offer this season, all of which has been duly 
inspected, as per the following Certificate: 
F. M. WEBSTER, M. sc., Entomologist. C. W. Mally, M. Sc., Assistant. Chas. E. Thorne, Director. 
tCbe ©bio Hgricultural fiSiperiment Station, 
WOOSTER, WAYNE COUNTY, OHIO. 
No. 50. Bridgeport, Ohio, November 4, 1898. 
ENTOMOLOGIST’S CERTIFICATE OF NURSERY INSPECTION. 
This is to certify that I have examined the Nursery and Premises belonging to E. W. REID’S 
NURSERIES, located in Belmont county, Ohio, and find no indications of the presence of the San 
Joso Scale, or other dangerously injurious insects or diseases, likely to be introduced into orchards 
or nursery stock. 
This Certificate is invalid after June 1, 1899. 
F. M. WEBSTER, 
Entomologist of Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station. 
We can assure our patrons of getting stock strictly as represented, clean, 
thrifty, and well grown, without any danger of infection — stock that can he depended 
on as true to name, fully up in grade and quality. We have made prices as low 
as good stock can be grown for, and less than half what many irresponsible agents 
would charge. We do not offer cheap, unreliable stock, made up of a collection of 
culls from different nurseries, aud offered at bargain -counter prices (which are dear 
at any price), nor omit to give caliper of trees, which governs rates as well as height. 
We ask all intending buyers to carefully examine this, our "Agent.” fie is 
a permanent resident, visits you twice a year, and you can depend on his promises 
being all fulfilled. 
Thanking our many patrons for past favors, and assuring all customers of our 
best personal attention to all large or small orders intrusted to us, we remain, 
Your obedient servants, 
E. W. REID’S NURSERIES. 
P. S.— Parties desiring a more full and complete descriptive catalogue can have same on applica- 
tion, with two-cent stamp for postage.
