NEW ACCOUNTS—Cash with order or satisfactory references. 
All bills due 60 days from date of invoice. 
C. O. D. ORDERS must be accompanied with a deposit. 
DAMAGED PLANTS—Should a shipment reach you by ex¬ 
press damaged, sign for it: “Received in damaged condi¬ 
tion,” and be sure to notify your express agent at once to 
inspect the plants. Then notify us immediately and we will 
assist in every way possible that the shipment may not be a 
total loss. Do not return plants to us without first communicat¬ 
ing with the express company. 
CLAIMS—All claims must be made on receipt of goods, or they 
will not be entertained. 
NO WARRANTY—We exercise the greatest care to have all 
bulbs, plants and nursery stock true to name and free from dis¬ 
ease or defects. While we are prepared to replace any which 
may be otherwise, on receipt of proper proof, we do not give 
any warranty, express or implied and will not be responsible 
for the crop, nor shall we be held for a greater amount than the 
original price of the goods. If the purchaser does not accept 
the goods on these terms and conditions, they must be returned 
at once and the money which was paid for them will be refunded. 
PRICES—All prices and terms are subject to change without 
notice. This is made necessary by unsettled business conditions 
that affect the cost of materials that we are obliged to buy for 
operating our business, and also by fluctuations in the prevail¬ 
ing wage rate. 
EARLY ORDERS—To one familiar with the rush at the pack¬ 
ing season, it must be obvious that it is impossible to fill an 
order requiring much time in its preparation on short notice, 
without doing an injustice to others who have their orders pre- 
OUR PATRONS 
viously booked. In fairness to all, we have adopted the practice 
of filling orders in the rotation received, unless orders are re¬ 
ceived far enough ahead of the packing season, with instructions 
to ship at a given date, so that we can arrange a special shipping 
date. So we repeat— place your orders as far in advance as you 
possibly can, stating when you would like stock sent. 
PLANTS BY EXPRESS—We do not deliver plants free by 
express, the purchaser paying the charges, which are by the 
principal express companies, 20 per cent, less than regular mer¬ 
chandise rates. We strongly urge this method of transporta¬ 
tion, as it enables us not only to give better values in the form 
of larger and finer plants, and unless instructed to the contrary, 
all orders are forwarded by express. In the event that small 
orders are desired sent by parcel post, add 5% of the amount of 
your purchase to your remittance. 
PLANTS BY RAIL—Shrubs, Hedge Plants and other dormant 
stock can be forwarded safely by fast freight lines, even to very 
distant points, at low rates. 
PACKING FREE—All retail orders. We make absolutely no 
charge for boxes or packing or delivery to any express, freight 
or steamship line in Albany, N. Y. Wholesale orders to the 
trade, charges for boxes and packing material at cost. 
SAFE ARRIVAL GUARANTEED—We guarantee the safe 
arrival of all plants in any part of the U. S. or Canada when 
sent by express. If forwarded in any other manner they are en¬ 
tirely at the risk of the purchaser. 
We would like to impress upon our customers and intending 
customers that it is to our interest as well as theirs that only 
strong, healthy stock be furnished. We believe that our satis¬ 
fied customers will be our best advertisements. 
Our nursery and greenhouses are always open for inspection. 
Replacing 
The utmost care is exercised in the growing, the digging, pack¬ 
ing and shipping of all Danker trees, shrubs and plants. It is as 
much to our advantage as to yours to have your order reach you 
in the pink of condition, ready to grow and to give you the result¬ 
ing pleasure. 
The success of a tree or plant depends upon its care after leav¬ 
ing our hands and in conditions over which we can have no con¬ 
trol. A tree can be killed by too much as well as too little water, 
by being planted too deeply or not deeply enough, or by having 
its naked roots exposed to wind or sun (Evergreens are especially 
endangered by this last lack of care). One should also bear in 
mind that a tree planted in the spring may show no life until 
Autumn or even until the following spring. We have often had 
trees reported as lost when in reality they were alive and healthy. 
We have every confidence in our stock and will willingly ad¬ 
just any reasonable claim against us, provided the order has been
