FROM SINGLE 
RATE PRICES, 
Important to purchasers. 
PRICES—-NOTE CAREFULLY. Single-rate prices are 
for less than five of a kind. 
Ten-rate prices are for five or more and less than 
twenty-five of a kind. 
Hundred-rate prices are for twenty-five or more and 
less than 250 of a kind. 
Thousand-rate prices are for 250 or more of a kind. 
We cannot agree to fill small orders for a few of a 
kind for less than single rates as it oftentimes takes one 
over many acres of ground to fill a single order, and the 
proportionate expense of digging and packing orders must be taken into account. 
SPECIAL DISCOUNTS ON TREES AND PLANTS. To those who send 
us orders for less than five of a kind, shipped at the same time, amounting 
to the following : 
Orders amounting to $10.00, a discount of^ 5% 
Orders amounting to $30.00, a discount of 10% 
Orders amounting to $50.00, a discount of 15% 
Orders amounting to $75.00, a discount of 20% 
Orders amounting to $100.00, a discount of 25% 
Special discounts on larger orders. Send us list for estimate. 
These discounts apply to Trees and other Plants only, and not to grass seed, 
fertilisers, etc. 
Trees and Plants individually selected at our nurseries or special quotations will 
be charged for according to quoted price without discounts. This does 
not mean that the rates will necessarily be advanced. 
TERMS. Cash in advance from unknown parties who do not furnish satis¬ 
factory reference. W© send invoice at time of shipment of order, and should 
any error be noticed on receipt of goods notify us immediately and we will 
do all in our power to rectify it. 
HOW ORDERS ARE SHIPPED. We ship all large trees and other bulky 
orders, which are to go outside the city, by freight, unless otherwise re¬ 
quested. Medium sized orders can be shipped by express to advantage; 
this way is especially advisable where immediate arrival is desired. All 
orders are delivered free to local freight and express companies. We are 
not liable for delays by forwarding parties. If not promptly received 
notify us and we will promptly trace. 
PACKING. We make no charge for packing except where stock is pur¬ 
chased at hundred-rate prices or in the case of large bulky stock, or where 
we are requested to ship with carefully preserved balls of earth, etc., which 
necessitates devoting more time and packing material than is usual. In 
such instances a charge covering actual cost is made. 
ORDER EARLY. Do not wait until you are ready to plant before ordering, 
but place your order as far in advance as possible. We will hold such orders 
subject to further directions if requested. The actual shipping season is so 
short that much is gained both to the planter and the nurseryman when 
orders are booked as far in advance as possible of the actual planting season. 
HOW TO REACH US. Our nursery and office are located at EDGEWOOD, 
Edgewood Avenue, just beyound Edgewood Park. The Edgewood Avenue 
cars direct to the nursery from the Railroad. Station, and by transfer at 
the New Haven Green. Parties autoing, driving or wheeling to the nur¬ 
sery will find West Chapel Street the better route, turning to the right at 
either Central or Alden Avenue. 
IF OUT OF A VARIETY, May We Substitute? Some special variety may 
be out of stock when an order reaches us, in which event we send order 
short unless purchaser requests us to select another variety equally as good. 
Many times it is better to leave variety to our selection, the customer 
gaining the advantage of our experience. 
LANDSCAPE DEPARTMENT. All inquiries for this work are turned 
over to Ernest F. Coe, Landscape Architect, care this office.
