GAIN we come before you, present 
ing our catalogue for another 
season. We feel glad to be able to 
offer to you again our Catalogue of Fresh-grown Small Fruits and Nursery Stock, and 
you will see we have, through your kind favors, been able to add to it by placing Fresh Seeds 
in your reach at a low cost, as well as fruits. You who have purchased from us in former 
years do not need any reference as to the quality of our stock, as it is well known to you. 
And to you, my new readers, let me extend a kind invitation to try our stock. If we don’t 
please you, it costs nothing. We do not wish to set up any howl as to the value of 
stock, as we do not belong to that class; we tell the truth, and expect you to receive 
it as such.

OUR STOCK 
Is much larger this season than ever before, and we expect to please the people much 
better, as we have put our prices at the lowest figure we can. 
CHEAP STOCK. 
We do not want you to think we sell this grade, for we sell first class stock at low 
rates for this reason : If we can sell to five different parties at a small profit, it is business 
for us to do so, rather than to sell to one man and make a profit from him. So if you want 
stock write us, and we will sell you as cheap if not cheaper than any firm in the country 
FRESH STOCK. 
We ship our stock same day as dug, and a fruit grower knows what this means ! 
SHIPPING SEASON 
Usually begins about March 25th and ends Nov. 15th. To our Southern friends we will 
say, wo can get stock out in good time for you, and will fill orders for the South first. 
LOCATION. 
We are on the high hill back of the Ohio river, where our stock always will mature 
and not be injured by over growth or be injured in winter. Belmont county, Ohio, has a 
reputation as being the best fruit center in the country, and we try to lead the list. 
“ Lead; don’t be led,” is our motto. 
ESTIMATES. 
Any one wanting a large stock of different articles should write for estimate, as we 
can in many cases sell for less than catalogue rate. Write us and see what we can' do for 
you, as it will cost you but two cents and we may save you dollars.
