TO CUSTOMERS 
TO CUSTOMERS 
The information, suggestions and conditions that appear under this head will be found of 
interest to purchasers, and form a basis for intelligent ordering. VVe respectfully request a 
careful perusal. 
Location.—The Glen Saint Mary Nurseries are one and one-half miles southwest of Glen 
Saint Mary, Baker county, Florida, a station on the Seaboard Air Line Railway, thirty miles 
west of Jacksonville. 
Invitation to Visitors.—We take pleasure in showing our stock to persons wishing to pur¬ 
chase and, if notified in time, will meet visitors at the station on arrival. Purchasers who can¬ 
not inspect the stock can rely upon all orders and correspondence receiving prompt and careful 
attention. We make every possible endeavor to give satisfaction to each customer. 
No Agents. —We employ no agents , and no one is authorized to represent us t or to sell stock for 
us. We hold ourselves responsible only for trees purchased direct from the nurseries. 
Club Orders. — It sometimes happens that several people wish to club together and have 
one of their number order for all. Such orders are treated with due liberality. 
Quality of Stock.—Our soil and natural conditions are exceptionally favorable to the 
growth of fine stock, which receives painstaking care, and is marked, graded and packed under 
a system which secures accuracy. Our reputation has been built upon the high standard of 
quality in the stock sent out, and patrons can depend upon receiving vigorous, healthy, well- 
grown, well-rooted specimens, true to name, and free from all injurious insects and fungous 
diseases. 
Packing.—The stock is boxed or baled, whichever best meets the requirements of the ship¬ 
ment, and is packed in the best possible manner. Shipments are annually made to the most 
distant parts of the United States, Mexico, Central America and the West Indies, and almost 
invariably arrive in good condition. 
No charge for packing will be made on orders amounting to $2 or more, figured at cata¬ 
logue rates. We do not care to accept orders amounting to less than $2. 
Prices.—We cannot sacrifice the quality of our products to compete with inferior stock. 
We believe discriminating purchasers will agree that our prices are reasonable for high-class 
stock. Value as well as price should be considered in purchasing trees. An inferior tree is 
dear at any price. Well-developed root and top, vigor, stamina and productiveness are 
essential, and depend upon proper conditions and methods of propagation and growth in 
nursery. Tree-planting for profit involves years of outlay, care and waiting. No planter can 
afford to handicap himself by beginning with inferior specimens, or with trees as to which there 
is the least doubt about the varieties proving true to label. 
Applying Prices. — Five, fifty and five hundred trees of one class at ten, hundred and 
thousand rates, respectively, purchaser’s selection from varieties of one fruit having a common 
price. For instance, fifty or more peaches, in one or more varieties, would come at the hun¬ 
dred rate, and five hundred or more at the thousand rate. The foregoing does not apply to 
badly assorted orders, or to long lists made up of a few each of many varieties. 
Terms cash with order, if for immediate shipment. Orders accompanied by a request that 
the trees be held for some weeks or months after the shipping season opens should also be 
accompanied by full payment. On orders booked in advance of the shipping season 25 per 
cent down, with the balance due when the shipping season opens. 
Freight Prepaid at Our Expense.— All orders amounting to $5 or over, which are accompa¬ 
nied by remittance in full, figured at prices named in this Catalogue, we will ship by prepaid freight, 
at our expense, to all points in the following states; viz., Florida , Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, 
Louisiana and Texas. To points outside of the above-named territory we will, on cash in advance 
orders of $5 or upward, either prepay the freight or allow our customers 10 per cent of the amount
