Suggestions 
Always address all communications to FRUITLAND NURSERIES, Drawer 910, Augusta, Ga., and not 
to individuals. 
NOTE—All quotations are for immediate acceptance, subject to stock being sold. No liability to at¬ 
tach to us where frost, drought or other casualties beyond our control prevent delivery of stock that may 
be contracted for. 
ORDER NOW—Do not wait until you are ready to plant. Frequently orders sent late in the season 
cannot be filled in full. Send us your order now; it will be carefully filed until you desire it shipped. 
When making out your order, write the full and correct name of the article desired, as given in catalogue. 
Give size and catalogue price. Never give local names, as different plants frequently have the same local name. 
RESERVING ORDERS—When purchasers desire these to be reserved for weeks or months after the 
opening of the shipping season, they must be paid for in full at the time of ordering. 
NAME AND ADDRESS—Always write your name plainly upon order-sheet in catalogue. A lady should 
always sign herself Miss or Mrs., and always use the same initials. Give your postoffice, county and state, 
also street or postoffice box number, and the name of your nearest express office. 
SHIPPING DIRECTIONS—Give plain and explicit directions for shipping. If by freight, state route. 
When no directions are given, we shall use our best judgment in forwarding; but in all cases shipments are 
at purchaser's risk after receipt from the transportation company. Freight and express rates will be given 
upon application . 
EXPRESS AND PARCEL POST—Owing to the fact that nursery stock has been advanced to first class 
rate by the express companies, the express charges are a great deal higher than heretofore. On all small 
packages we would advise that they be sent by Parcel Post, but sufficient postage must be sent with order 
or we reserve the right to ship via express. If no instructions are given we will use our judgment in 
shipping via express or parcel post. Large shipments will have to be sent via express or freight. 
PACKING—All articles in this catalogue packed free, except when for export, as such orders require 
large quantities of specially prepared packing material, and entail much extra labor and care in prepara¬ 
tion. This extra packing is charged at actual cost. We maintain a large force of experienced packers, and 
only the most expert are entrusted with this work. 
TERMS OF PAYMENT—Cash with order, or satisfactory reference before shipment; or, if preferred, 
will ship goods with Bill of Lading attached to Sight Draft, through express or bank. On all C. O. D. and 
Sight Draft orders we require 25 per cent of the bill remitted before shipment. 
PRICES—All prices quoted are net. We offer no premiums, discounts, or gratuities. Five trees or plants 
of a Hass will be billed at the 10 rate; 40 trees at the 100 rate; 400 at the 1,000 rate, viz.: Five Pecans will 
be billed at the 10 rate; 40 at the 100 rate, etc. 
REMITTANCES—Remittances should be made by Post Office or Express Money Orders, or by checks 
on Augusta or New York. As our banks charge exchange on checks (minimum charge ten cents) on all 
points except Augusta, New York, and few large cities, please add one-fourth of 1 per cent on private checks. 
We cannot be held responsible for losses when remittances are not made as directed above. Cash sent 
through the mails is at sender's risk. Make all remittances payable to Fruitland Nurseries. 
WE GUARANTEE every tree or plant to be in a perfectly healthy condition, up to grade and first-class 
in every respect when leaving our hands, but, after delivering to forwarders, all losses resulting from de¬ 
lays or exposure in transit are at risk of purchaser. 
RESPONSIBILITY'—We have not connection whatever with any other nursery, and our responsibility 
extends only to persons purchasing direct from us. We are not responsible for failures arising from defec¬ 
tive planting, unfavorable weather conditions, or improper treatment and cultivation. If any Nursery stock, 
etc., proves untrue to description under which it is sold. Seller shall be liable to the Purchaser only and to 
no greater extent or amount than the purchase price of such Nursery stock, etc., and the Seller except for 
the aforesaid agreed liability and in respect to such purchased Nursery stock, etc., gives no warranty ex¬ 
press or implied as to description, quality, productiveness or any other matter. 
ERRORS—We exercise the utmost care in filling orders, and always put in more than is ordered, but 
during the rush of the busy season an error is occasionally made, and satisfactory ‘correction will be 
promptly made upon notification. Keep a copy of your order for comparison. All claims for errors must 
be made within live days after receipt of goods; otherwise they will not be entertained. 
SHIPPING FACILITIES—Augusta being the terminal point of seven lines of railroad, enables us to 
secure rates of freight to all points. 
SHIPPING SEASON—This usually commences about the middle of October, or as soon as the plants 
are sufficiently dormant to lift with safety, and for all open ground trees and plants continues until the 
middle of March, or until the buds begin to swell. Pot grown plants can be safely sent out any time of 
the year. 
INSECTS AND DISEASES—Our Nurseries are free from disease. Certificate of State Entomologist is 
attached to every shipment. 
FUMIGATION—We fumigate our stock with hydrocyanic acid gas before shipping, as required by state 
law, so that assurance of freedom from insects or disease of any kind is made doubly sure.
