sire is to satisfy every customer — that has been our 
policy for nearly 125 years. We guarantee Stark 
Nursery Stock to reach the customer in good condi¬ 
tion, and we will refill absolutely FREE any stock 
that does not reach customer in good condition, 
provided we are notified immediately on arrival of 
order so that we can make claim with the railroad 
or other transportation company. We do not replace 
free, nursery stock that fails to live. Possible 
neglect of planter and unavoidable climatic conditions 
prevent guaranteeing trees and plants to grow.

trees, etc. that die the first summer — if customer 
notifies us before August 1st following.

labeled. Seller Company agrees, on satisfactory proof 
to it of such untrueness to name, to refill that portion 
of the order so proven to it to be untrue to name, or, 
at its option, to refund the purchase price paid there¬ 
for, and as the Seller Company does not give any 
warranty, express or implied, in respect to any 
nursery stock sold by it, the purchaser’s or any one
