FRUIT TREES, ORNAMENTALS, LANDSCAPE SERVICE of the highest qual¬ 
ity, satisfaction guaranteed. The very fact that during the past two years, when 
commerce was at its lowest ebb, we sold more trees and plants than ever before in 
a corresponding period is proof that our plant material and service are meeting the 
demands of the most conservative and influential planters. You save money by 
planting the best. We solicit your continued business on these terms. We invite 
you who have not seen or used our stock to give us a trial. 
OUR STOCK AND PRICES. During the past two years we reduced our prices 
until there was no profit left and then took another slice. We are now paying more 
for most of our supplies, and no doubt are justified in asking a price which will give 
us a small margin of profit. We, however, in this list are making very few changes, 
with the exception of prices on Fruit Trees, which are extremely scarce this season, 
due to low prices on Fruit Trees and curtailed production, which was further re¬ 
duced by the severe winter of 1933-34 and drought in the middle west, making a 
large percent of Fruit Stocks unsalable. We urge you to take advantage of the 
present list by placing your order now while prices are still low and choice varieties 
available. For the benefit of those who are willing to use smaller grades and wait 
for the growth, we offer our “Mail Order Grade.’’ The plants are just as healthy 
and are guaranteed to be true to name and to be delivered in good condition. Usual¬ 
ly it is advisable to plant the larger sizes but if you prefer the smaller plants you 
will find our “Mail Order Grade’’ plants well developed, well rooted and full of life. 
we tay TEAKSrOBTATIOH CHARGES to points in the United States east of the Mississippi on our Nursery Stock when purchased at list prices, and 
we guarantee our plants to be as represented, true to name, and to be delivered in good condition. When you place your order you can expect to receive ex¬ 
actly the varieties you order, and that the plants will be vigorous, up to grade, and well rooted. 
TERMS. For cash in full with order, we allow 5 per cent discount, or a liberal premium in free stock. No discount is allowed unless cash in full accom¬ 
panies order, but orders are accepted and booked when 25 per cent of the amount of the order accompanies the same. 
FREE REPLACEMENT GUARANTEE ON ORNAMENTAL NURSERY STOCK. We furnish, free of charge, f.o.b our shipping point. Ornamental Nursery 
Stock for replacing any purchased from us which may die, provided that the original shipment is paid for on or before its delivery, and provided the loss of 
the plants is reported to 1 us within twelve months of date of delivery. Reasonable care for the stock on the part of the customer is also a condition of this 
replacement agreement. Fruit Trees and Berry Plants which may die and are reported to us as dead within twelve months of delivery, and Ornamental Nursery 
Stock sold on any terms other than cash on or before delivery and lost within twelve months, will be furnished at one-half list price.

Nurseries have none whatever to offer. At the

but have already completely sold in some varie¬ 
ties and are selling close in others. You can help
