boxes owing to severe change of weather while en route. If any signs of ice should appear 
in the packing material, bury the trees and packing material in earth and leave several days or 
until the frost is thoroughly drawn out. 
Roses should be pruned heavily— both at time of planting and annually thereafter. Blos¬ 
soms come on new growth and new growth is forced out by pruning. 
If trees should be delayed in transit and arrive in dry condition, take them out of the 
package and bury for two or three days in moist earth — covering tops as well as roots. This 
will fill out shrunken stems and limbs. Trim severely before planting. 
Never plow under rank grass, peas, beggar-weed or other green growth in midsummer. 
Orchards should be well cultivated, the first part of the season at least, but if ground is lacking 
in humus, cow-peas, beggar-weed or grass can be allowed to grow in late summer and fall, to 
be turned under in winter. Cow-peas, however, should never be allowed in a Peach orchard. 
For quick results, apply a pound per tree of high-grade commercial fertilizer, thoroughly 
mixed with earth, at time of planting. Make a second application of equal amount during the 
spring, and another in summer ; combine this with frequent cultivation.

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 
shipment, 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 
catalogue 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
