Orders for less than will not h(? lilled un-

At prices nainrd, goods are carefully pae.k- 
ed in moss or straw, well hailed or boxed and 
delivered to forwarders here, after which my 
responsibility ceases, except for mistak(!S in 
lining, which must be reported witiiin live 
daj's after receijrt of goods, to iidniit adjust- 
ment. Be careful in unpacking to note every- 
thing. and immediately "-/if (it in’’ in moist soil

It is alwaps better to ship hi/ J'hpress, un- 
less the amount of stock is large. If money is 
sent to prepay express or freight, 1 can save 
eu-stomers money by prepaying, as I get s|)e- 
eial rates. No prepayment is made unless mon- 
ey is sent. This is an accommodation I cheer- 
fully do my customers, but 1 cannot prepay out 
of my own ])oeket, trusting everyone to return 
my money. Good customers never ask it. In 
ease a sur])lus of money is sent, it is promptly 
r(!turned with statement. j

When sucli are not given I shall use my best 
judgement in sehs'tinga route, but will not be 
la^sponsible for loss ther<>l)y. 
Customers wilt f/nieralli/ he most siteccss- 
/id in getting desirable assortments by leaving 
the selection in part, at least, to me, as I have 
juuch e.xperience in testing and growing for 
market, but I desire everyone to have his or 
her choice as near as ijossible. 
Jt is to rny own. interest to give customers ; 
the best terms and selections possible. But I 
cannot prevent Drouth, Severe Winter, Early': 
or Late Frosts, Insects, Rabbits etc. from oat- | 
ing, nor Plants from dying by Bad 'I’reatment 
in Other Hands, hence I never insure trees to 
lire after teavinp nil/ /nissr ssion, but do de- 
liver good stock, in good order, true to name. 
In .-ase 1 fail in these I replace or refund mon-

Trees,"’ nor any other imimssible horticultural
