EVERGREEN LODGE, 
0. O. D. ORDERS. 
G. O. D. orders must be accompanied by at least one-fourth of the amount in 
cash, and the parties ordering are to pay the express charges for collecting. 
Large orders of shrubbery, trees, etc., can go by ordinary freight, by consigning 
to our own order and sending bill of lading by express, G. O. D., endowed to 
parties ordering. Heavy express charges are thus avoided and collections 
facilitated. 
oua plants. 
Plants offered in this Catalogue are none of your puny, weak little things 
that take till Fall to see what you get ; but are grown in pots ranging ui size 
from 21 to 4 inches, according to varieties of plants. We need not mention this 
to old customers who know what kind of plants we send out, but this Catalogue 
will be received by many peoPle who never saw our plants or received our 
Catalogue before. Patrons can always depend on getting their money s worth, 
and more, too, as we are very liberal with our extras. 
MISTAKES. 
If anything is wrong with your order, do not think we intended it, for we 
have no interest in so doing; out interest is to give satisfaction, and that we 
are determined to do ; so should an error occur, kiudly put it down as ii mis- 
take, notify us, and we will put it right. We wish our customers would, in 
every ease, keep a copy of their order, and verify it on arrival of plants , this 
willprevent mistakes as to what they “thought” they ordered, but which was 
never written upon their order sheet ; and if not too much trouble, please drop 
us a oard on the arrival of the goods. We are glad to know when you are 
pleased, and we wish to know of any dissatisfaction, that we may make it right. 
PLEASE BB OAREPUL 
and write your Name and Address plainly. We can readily make out what is 
wanted in an order, as we are acquainted with the names of all our plants, but 
we have no means of knowing what your uame is or liovy it should be spelled 
unless you write it plainly. We receive many orders that are well written 
throughout, but when we look to see who sends them, the name is so carelessly 
written that we are obliged to guess at it. Indeed, some forget entirely to sign 
their name. Again we would say, Please Sign your Name Carefully, as it will 
save us much annoyance, and possibly, prevent errors. 
BULBS GIVEN AWAY! 
Ten Handsome Presents to be Distributed

S an inducement to ladies to get up clubs, we have decided 
to offer as premiums a choice assortment of Spring and 
Winter flowering bulbs in ten separate collections, to be

will consist chiefly of Hyacinths, Tulips, Crocus, Narcissus, Lilies, Iris, Crown 
Imperials, and other popular flowering bulbs to the amount of 
FIFTY DOLLARS. 
These presents are altogether an outside matter, and will have nothing to do 
with the other inducements ofl'ered elsewhere to originators of clubs. The par- 
ties that will secure the above piesents will benotifled by letter from us in May,
