J. H. Shivers Plant Farms, Allen, Maryland

My Agreement To You 
I sell by catalog only, and to everyone at the same price, filling 
all orders with the same high-grade stock. Strawberry plants fre¬ 
quently can be shipped during warm spells in winter, and after March 
first in unlimited quantities. From then until May 1st I am busy 
every day filling orders for customers. After May 1st I can fill a 
limited number of orders but the earlier you secure your plants the 
more certain is your success with them. 
I SHIP OUT ONLY FRESH DUG PLANTS in slatted crates with 
plenty of damp moss. I will replace free of charge anything that 
reaches you in bad condition, provided the transportation company has 
given it proper dispatch. If it has been too long on the road, refuse 
to recieve it and I will refill your order without additional charge to 
you.
