shipping long distances when necessary. 
2. Buyers, ordering l^y mail, should list their wants plainly on a separate sheet, and

merely stating the proportion of summer, fall and winter fruit wanted, incident to our 
experience enabling us to select such sorts as are adapted to the locality. 
4. Immediate notice should be given to us of any error in filling an order, that we may 
at once rectifj^ the mistake or give a satisfactorj'^ explanation.

To estimate the number of plants required for an acre at any given distance, multiply the distance 
between the rows by the distance between the plants, which will give the number of square feet 
allotted to each plant, and divide the number of square feet in an acre (43,.560) by this number, and the 
quotient will be the number of plants required.
