Kelsey Nursery 
Service 
1. We furnish high quality stock. Kelsey Nursery stock 
is grown where it grows best; always of course, with re¬ 
gard to shipping convenience. Of more than seventy 
nurseries with over twenty thousand acres of stock we 
select the nearest nursery growing the material of the 
quality and grade you may want. Each grower is of 
recognized standing and competency. All stock is shipped 
as our property and we are amply responsible therefor. 
Shipments are made direct to you from the nursery row. 
2. We furnish our stock at the lowest prices made 
possible by mass production. Prices of nursery stock 
vary greatly. One nursery grows stock on land worth, 
say, $4,000 or $5,000 per acre. The stock is no better 
than that grown at a nearby nursery where land is worth 
perhaps $400 per acre. Nature has no partiality in this 
respect, and as merchants in nursery stock we are able 
to secure the best stock at very low prices and sell it to 
the advantage of our customers. We are, therefore, en¬ 
abled to sell excellent stock at very low prices. 
3. We are an entirely responsible source of supply. 
Established Fifty Years ago, in 1878, we still have among 
our customers many who have been patrons for forty 
years or more. In all our dealings we are always willing 
to make things right on any errors or just causes for 
complaint. 
4. Our Guarantee —Stock to be in good condition when 
furnished. We will, however, replace any and all losses 
at half price. 
5. Scarce and rare varieties: Why look through a dozen 
nursery catalogues for them? Send us your list and we 
will quote promptly. This Short Guide is necessarily 
confined to standard varieties, but with our facilities we 
can furnish almost any variety or size grown in the 
United States. 
6. The policy of this Company is to make and keep 
goodwill by careful and prompt service.
