CALL’S NURSERIES, PERRY, OHIO

CALL’S NURSERIES Otter You Over 
A Half Century at Practical Experience 
The picture you see here is that of our 
founder, S. W. Call. From a humble beginning 
of one and one-half acres of fruit trees, Mr. 
Call started a business that has grown to 220 
acres of Fruit Trees, Ornamental Trees, Ever¬ 
greens, Roses, etc. 
Call’s Nurseries has been in continuous op¬ 
eration since its founding. During the sixty 
years this nursery has acquired a “character”, 
which surely marks its business relations with 
its customers. 
We feel safe in trusting to an introduction by 
old customers but expect that new customers 
will have to be “shown.” This very thing we 
are willing and eager to do. Should you desire 
any information not covered by our catalog, 
please feel free to write us. We shall be pleased 
to give you advice or help you select varieties 
of Fruit or Trees and Shrubs for beautifying 
your home grounds. We are interested in 
every tree we sell for upon their success de¬ 
pends our success. Our oldest customers are 
our warmest friends. 
It is our aim to give individual service on 
each order we receive. We have expert field 
men who know how to select trees and plants 
that will please you. 
We have worked long and hard for a good 
reputation among our customers and friends. 
We have kept faith with them for sixty years. 
May we serve you? 
OUR SERVICES AND CUSTOMS 
Read Before Ordering 
Policies —In our transaction of business 
with you a great desire for mutual satis¬ 
faction prevails. In order to make clear our 
customs we have endeavored in the para¬ 
graphs following to inform you of them so 
that there will be no misunderstanding. 
Our Responsibility —We exercise the 
greatest care and give our personal attention 
to cutting buds and scions and packing or¬ 
ders. With all precaution mistakes and er¬ 
rors sometimes creep in. We guarantee any 
plant, tree or shrub we send out to be 
alive and in growing condition and true to 
name. We pack stock so that it will carr}’- 
any distance. It may be on the road two or 
three weeks or longer and not suffer to any 
extent. We hold ourselves in readiness at 
all times to replace on proper proof any tree, 
plant, or shrub that may prove untrue to 
name or that arrives in damaged condition. 
It is also mutually agreed between ourselves 
and purchaser that our guarantee shall in no 
case make us liable for any sum greater than 
that originally paid for the trees, plants, or 
shrubs that are unsatisfactory for any of 
the reasons stated above. 
Substitution —Occasionally we find our¬ 
selves out of a certain variety. In such cases 
we always send the nearest match in color 
and season unless you instruct when placing 
your order to make no substitution. 
To Avoid Errors —^Write your name, post 
office and shipping address very plainly. 
If possible send your orders early. First or¬ 
ders as far as practicable will be sent first. 
We usually commence shipping in the spring 
about the first of April and in the fall about 
October 15th. 
Prices —Our prices are for stock well 
packed f. o. b. Perry, Ohio. The expense of 
packing a small order is nearly as much as 
a large one, hence we prefer not to accept 
an order for less than $1.00. 
Terms —We expect cash with orders. In 
ordering goods to be sent C. O. D., one- 
quarter of the bill must accompany order. 
Planters requiring a large quantity of stock 
need not send all the money with the order. 
You can send enough to secure the order 
and the balance any time before shipment. 
NOTICE —Due to the low prices con¬ 
tained in this catalogue for first class mer¬ 
chandise, we are unable to prepay any trans¬ 
portation charges, other than small pack¬ 
ages that it is possible to send via Parcel 
Post. Do not be misled by other firms 
who offer to pay shipping charges, but at 
the same time raise the price of their mer¬ 
chandise enough to more than offset it. Our 
prices are rock bottom.
