Read Carefully The Terms Of Sale. 
First— The articles in the following list will be furnished at the annexed prices only, when the quan- 
tities specified are taken. Moreover, these prices are intended for a reasonable assortment of varieties. 
When parties order long lists of only one or two trees of a kind, for such bills extra charge will be made. 
E^^Second — When parties order specific varieties we will follow their instructions so far as practica- 
ble. But as it often occurs that we have run out of certain varieties, or may not have of the age and 
size ordered, we reserve the right to substitute in such cases other varieties equally good, unless posi- 
tively instructed not to do so. 
£^*Third — We will use every efifort to avoid mistakes in varieties, for we fully realize that our success 
in the nursery business depends upon the reliability of our labels, but as there is such a margin for mis- 
takes and misunderstanding (as above indicated), we will not warrant against errors or apparent mis- 
takes in varieties, only to this extent, we will replace, free of charge, all trees that do not prove true to 
name, or we will refund in cash the original cost of such trees, with 10 per cent, interest per annum on 
said amount. (See fig. 2 on 1st page.) 
Fourth — All trees are carefully labeled and packed in the best manner for shipping, for which a charge 
will be made sufhcient to cover the cost of material and labor. As trees are often delayed in transit and 
roughly handled, it is much better to pay a small sum to have them securely packed than to have them 
poorly packed for nothing. 
Fifth — All orders should be made in a separate list, and not mixed up with the body of the letter. 
8^^ Write in a plain, legible hand, the name of the person and the place to which the goods are to go; 
also the route by which they ai'e to be shipped. In the absence of such directions we will ship according 
to our best judgment, and will deliver to railroad or boat, all goods free of charge, but will not be re- 
sponsible for accidents or delays which may occur in transit. 
E^^*rKRMS OF Payment. — Cash, or sufficient guarantee that the money will be forwarded on receipt 
of trees. 
For extra large trees and plants above the sizes mentioned, extra prices will be charged, and smaller 
ones lower in proportion. 
Money may be sent by Express, Draft or Post-office Order, at our risk; but if sent in any other way, 
at sender’s risk. 
E^Agents wanted in every community, to whom a liberal commission will be paid. Correspondence 
solicited. 
t^*Any errors of ours in filling orders will be cheerfully rectified on receiving notice, provided such 
notice be given within ten days from the receipt of goods. 
We desire to tender our thanks to the public for the liberal share of patronage they have 
extended us in the past, and we shall hope to merit a continuation of the same. We shall 
certainly try by strict integrity and prompt attention to business to retain the public confi- 
dence so generously accorded us. Please advise us promptly of anj errors or omission on 
our part that we may have a chance to rectify.
