FRUIT AND ORNAMENTAL TREES. 
RARE CHANCES OFFERED. 
200.000 Choice Fruit Trees, Vines, etc., for 
sale, of varied size to suit customers. 
The subscriber calls attention to his unusually large stock 
of well grown trees now on hand, and especially to the pre- 
sent stock of the standard fruit, Apple, which is the 
largest and finest ever offered at these Nurseries. 
With twenty years of experience, by careful observation 
and judicious selections, he believes he is able to judge and 
furnish what will suit his customers, as well as the varied 
soils and localities, in which trees may be wanted. There is 
also special attention paid to local varieties, adapted to 
Southern and Central Pennsylvania, many of which have 
proven themselves more valuable, than sorts originating in 
a climate differing so widely from these sections. 
He is also preparinc a list of club prices for those who 
purchase direct from the proprietor, offering rare induce- 
ments for neighbors to join together and get trees consider- 
ably under the regular retail prices. 
This mode is adopted for those who may not have an op- 
poriunity to purchase from his regularly authorized agents, 
and hold a mistrust towards the too numerous tree venders 
Bpread over the land. 
2i^~ The frequent use made of his name and establishment 
by strangers, to effect sales where the reputation of the 
nursery is known, compels him to warn all not to purchase 
—as coming from these Nurseries— stock offered by pre- 
tenders, who do not hold an authority from the proprietor. 
Local or stationed agents will be accented, hut neither 
traveling nor stationary agency inquiries will receive notice, 
unless the parties produce satisfactory reference as to their 
honesty in dealing with customers and employer. Send for 
Catalogues and priced List, which contain inducements not 
before offered by him. Abundant and trustworthy re- 
ference WILL HE FURNISHED TO ALL WHO ARE STRANG- 
ERS TO THE ESTABLISHMENT.
