INTRODUCTION 
T WELVE years ago we began the nursery business, largely on account of a love for plants and on account of 
a conviction that such an industry was needed in our community. We have had a lot of “bumps,” a lot of 
fun, and considerable experience. We are now serving customers in nearly every state in the Union. 
At our mountain Nursery at Indiantown Gap, twenty-five miles east of Harrisburg, we are growing Rhodo- 
dendrons and Kalmias in large quantities, in addition to some other native trees and shrubs. In this connection we 
are prepared to serve our friends with the best stock that can be grown and in the most efficient manner. 
We have recently arranged with a large rose-grower who has been producing Roses of merit for more than a 
quarter of a century, to take his entire output. We are confident, therefore, because of these various connections 
that permit us to grow the different classes of plants under the most favorable conditions, of being able to render to 
our customers a service that will be appreciated more and more as we have opportunity to demonstrate it. 
These places were made with our help. We will gladly give names of the owners to anyone wishing a first-hand testimonial 
LANDSCAPE ADVICE 
S OME folks think it costs a lot more money to have us make suggestions for the proper planting of their grounds. 
Nothing could be further from the real fact, for in reality it costs more not to consult us, or someone who knows 
the subject, before expensive mistakes are made, resulting in disappointment that may take years to overcome. 
Such advice is part of our sales service, and we are glad to discuss the problems and submit suggestive plans. 
It’s just as foolish to attempt to lay out your home-grounds alone as to begin building a house without first 
consulting an architect and making plans. The interesting thing about the garden scheme is that if you have definite 
plans in the beginning you can work it out in stages, planting a little each spring and fall, and all the time working 
to a definite and harmonious result. This not only divides the expense, but also prolongs the pleasure of the devel- 
opment over a period of months or years, and it is much cheaper than any hit-or-miss plan of buying a plant here 
and there. We will be glad to consult with you if you make the connection by mail or telephone. 
Business Terms 
Shipping Season for nursery stock begins about March 15 and 
continues until June 1. The fall shipping season begins about Sep- 
tember 1 and continues until the ground freezes. Evergreens, with 
balls, can be safely moved through almost the entire year, and we 
are prepared to supply Roses and Vines from pots at all times. House 
plants, such as Palms, etc., can be shipped throughout the entire year. 
Shipments are made by mail, express, and freight. Small plants 
can often be sent by mail. Larger plants, shrubs, ejx., should travel 
by express, and unless otherwise instructed we ship charges collect. 
A discount of 20 per cent is allowed by the express companies on 
nursery stock. Large, heavy shipments travel safely by freight. 
When no definite instructions are given we use our best judgment. 
Substitution. We warrant our stock true to name and will 
replace any plant that may prove otherwise. Our liability in any 
case shall not be for more than the amount or purchase price of the 
stock. Late in the season we may be sold out of some varieties and 
sizes, and unless otherwise ordered we will take the liberty of sub- 
stituting similar varieties. 
Responsibility. We always do the best we can to send our 
patrons the highest quality of trees and plants that we can produce. 
We do not guarantee them, nor do we assume any responsibility after 
the goods leave our nurseries, for conditions always exist over which 
we have no control. In all agreements it is mutually understood 
between the buyer and us that we shall not be held responsible for 
any amount greater than the original price. 
Our Business Place 
Our greenhouses and showgrounds are accessibly located on the 
Jonestown Road, opposite the Colonial Country Club, four miles 
east of Harrisburg. Visitors are always welcome. By motor the 
Jonestown state road leads through Penbrook and Progress and is 
a delightful ten-minute ride. By street-car, a car marked “L" (for 
Linglestown), leaving from Market Square, delivers one at the 
entrance of the Nursery. Our offices are located in the Berryhill 
Building, 202 Locust Street. Our city store is also located at 202 
Locust Street, where we have for constant exhibition and sale all 
sorts of garden accessories, cut-flowers, and decorative plants 
for all occasions. 
Order Early. Our rule is to fill orders in the rotation received. 
Order early and insure your stock coming from the largest selection 
and reaching you at the earliest moment for planting. 
Correspondence. If you want to know more about any of the 
trees and plants listed in this catalogue, write us. We give all 
inquiries prompt attention, and will answer you fully and frankly. 
If you have some planting problem that you do not fully understand 
and want an expert plantsman’s opinion, write us fully and we will 
do our best to help you. 
Prices. On account of the constant fluctuation in stocks this 
catalogue is printed without prices and may be retained for per- 
manent use. A small and handy price-list is issued in connection 
with this catalogue each year and will be mailed regularly on request. 
FROM A CUSTOMER WE HAVE SERVED 
Gentlemen: The architect of my house was here yesterday on an inspection trip and he noticed your planting which appealed to 
him very much. I feel that you ought to know this as he expressed himself in no uncertain terms of the gracefulness of the planting and 
asked that I have you send him one of your catalogues, as he has several plantings coming on.
