WAYNESBORO, VA. 
Branch Nursery: Boxwood Gardens, Afton, Virginia 
SPRING 1939 AND FALL 1939 
DEPENDABLE PLANT MATERIAL AND SERVICE have held old customers and 
made new ones, building within a few years time Virginia’s Largest Nursery, serv¬ 
ing planters in many States. We solicit, on our past record, the continued patron¬ 
age of our old customers and a trial order from those whom we have not yet 
served. Our stock and services are being improved from year to' year. Our as¬ 
sortment of varieties was never as complete and the quality never better than we 
are prepared to offer this season. Furthermore, our prices were never before 
quite so low. 
OUR STOCK AND PRICES. Being governed strictly by price in buying 
Nursery Stock is false economy. The best is the cheapest, even though the initial 
cost is more. Our prices are based on furnishing vigorous, healthy trees true to 
name, grown and sold on a small margin of profit and delivered in first class con¬ 
dition. For the benefit of those who are willing to use small sizes of trees and 
plants and wait for them to grow, we offer the Mail Order Sizes in Shrubs and 
small sizes of Fruit Trees for less than standard sizes. Our small plants are 
healthy, true to name, and will give satisfactory results. We, however, believe in 
most cases it is economv to purchase medium :>r larger sizes. 
WE PAY TRANSPORTATION CHARGES or allow 6% discount f.o.b. Waynes¬ 
boro. For exceptions see note under Strawberries, Evergreens, and Shade Trees, 
or letter quoting special f.o.b. Nursery prices. . . 
CERTIFICATE OF INSPECTION, issued by Virginia State Entomologist, fur¬ 
nished with each shipment. 
TERMS. When remittance in full accompanies order, we allow a liberal premium in free stock, 
when a deposit of as much as 25% accompanies order. 
LIBERAL REPLACEMENT TERMS. While losses from transplanting our vigorous, carefully handled stock are at a minimum, there are always some 
losses to be expected, regardless of how careful both Nurseryman and planter may be. We agree to share with our customers any losses from transplant¬ 
ing our stock by refurnishing at half catalogue list price any plant materia! reported dead within twelve months after date of delivery, provided the original 
purchase was paid for as per sale terms and the plant material has been given reasonable attention. See exceptions under Strawberries, Evergreens, and 
Shade Trees. 
VARIETIES AND QUANTITIES. In case you do not find listed the variety, quantity, or size desired, write for further information. 
MAKING UP ORDERS. Do not fail to give sizes, quantities, and varieties wanted. Also give shipping point if different from post office, and approxi 
mately when you would like your stock shipped. We furnish 6 at dozen rate, 30 at 100 rate, and 300 at 1,000 rate, with the exception of Berry Plants, 
Bulbs and Perennials, which are sold not less than 60 at 100 rate, and 600 at 1000 rate, with exceptions noted. 
NOTICE OF WARRANTY. While we are very careful to keep our varieties true to name, in the event they should prove otherwise, we cannot be re¬ 
sponsible for more than the amount we receive for the stock.

YORKING 
On May 28, 1986, was awarded United 
States Patent No. 126. 
A New Solid Red York having all the 
good qualities of the famous old York and 
the tremendous advantage of being a Solid 
Red, a pleasing purplish red, and coloring 
two weeks earlier than the standard York. 
Yorking is one of only a few Apples 
ever to be honored with a United States 
Patent. You can imagine what a Solid 
Red York—every Apple on the tree being 
a solid, bright red—would mean to the 
grower. That is exactly what we offer in 
the Yorking. 
Place your order early for Yorking as 
enough Yorking trees have never been 
available to supply the demand.
