Our Guarantee 
We guarantee every plant 
sold by us to be first class in 
every respect, free from any 
injurious diseases or insects, 
and true-to-name, and hold 
ourselves ready upon proper 
proof, to refund or replace 
any that prove otherwise. It 
is mutually agreed between 
ourselves and the customers 
that we shall not be liable 
for a greater sum than the 
amount paid us for the

crop damaged by weather, 
fire or floods. We reserve 
the right to return money in 
case of shortage. 
It is a pleasure to send you this catalog called GARDEN SUCCESS, and I hope you will like it. 
I will again offer you the highest quality Hardy Northern Grown stock at the lowest possible 
price. The South Michigan Nursery, I believe, will have a larger stock of the New Wayzata 
everbearing strawberry to offer this year, than any other one nursery in the country. We always 
have been headquarters for the famous Mastodon everbearing strawberry, and originator of the 
Alfred Blackberry. 
Your order, large or small, will be appreciated. Most nurseries will not accept an order for 
less than one dollar. I will take your order from 10c up, and it will get just as much attention 
as one for $10.00. Your order will receive my personal attention, and you will get a square 
deal, or I want to know about it. Your order will be acknowledged promptly by first-class mail, 
in the form of a duplicate copy. 
Our terms are cash with order. Later in the season, if you are in a hurry, you may phone or 
wire your order and it will be shipped the same day C.O.D. Phone New Buffalo No. 27. Western 
Union and Postal Telegraph service are both available. 
If you have the money on hand when this catalog arrives, you can save some money by 
ordering at once. I am offering you 10% discount for all orders received in January, 5% for 
all orders received in February. Don't overlook the nice premiums I am offering for $5.00, 
$10.00, $25.00 and $50.00 orders. This stock will be of the highest grade—not a lot of junk 
we want to get rid of. I want to thank all my old customers and friends who have ordered be¬ 
fore. And to you who have never ordered from the South Michigan Nursery, will say that I 
believe that it will pay you to direct a trial order this way this year. Remember, satisfaction 
guaranteed. All plants are twice State Inspected, and are healthy and true-to-name. 
Now for a few words about some of the items that are listed. The Boysenberry is a real home 
use berry and a commercial money maker. It is past the experimental stage. The Blueberries 
are being grown more and more by the home gardener. With the SODUS ACID HUMUS that 
we handle this year, anybody can grow them in their garden. The Wayzata is doing better 
every year. Mastodon and Gem are still the leaders. We are offering several new varieties of 
raspberries, and 32 varieties of new and old apples. We have added many new varieties of 
of shrubs, evergreens, and ornamentals, and a dozen of the finest everblooming roses that you 
can grow. Only the real worth while varieties of peaches, pears, plums, cherries and grapes are 
offered. Your order will be greatly appreciated and will be acknowledged the same day received. 
Your acknowledgment will be a copy of your order sent to you by first class mail. This gives 
you a chance to check it and report a mistake if it should happen.

A BARREL OF STRAWBERRIES 
and a Barrel of Fun 
Grow any everbearing strawberry in a barrel. 50 plants can be planted in Q cornmori sugar barrel, or 
even an old potato barrel. Bore 2-inch holes in the side of the barrel, and fill barrel with some good soil. 
Then set the plants in these holes, and 10 plants can be set on top. Keep well watered. Be sure to bore 
a few small holes in the bottom for drainage. Barrel can be kept in the back yard, or even on the back 
porch. This saves space, and you can have berries for breakfast twice a week. No weeds, no cultivation 
necessary. Keep runners pinched off. Wayzata would be the ideal variety to grow by this method, i h^ey 
make very few runners, but great quantities of berries. Be the first one in your neighborhood to try 
this stunt.

NORTH JUDSON, IND.—The 
photo at left is of Joseph Sinde- 
lar of North Judson, Indiana, 
who is picking strawberries "by 
the barrel." Mr. Sindelar drilled 
holes in the side of a barrel, 
filled it with soil, and whenever 
he craves a dish of berries he 
rolls the barrel in the shade of 
the old apple tree, pulls up a 
comfortable rocker and avoids 
the back-breaking work of the 
berry picker in the sun.
