A load of plants crated ready for shipment when we first began. Wes 
still use the same type of slatted crate. Nothing equals it. 
For thirty-nine years we have been selling strawberry plants by cata¬ 
logue only, filling orders with strictly fresh dug, true-to-name, high grade 
stock of our own growing. We can sometimes ship during January and 
February, depending on the severity of the winter, but after March first we 
are able to dig and ship daily until May first. After May first we can ship 
out a limited number of orders at purchaser’s risk. 
We will always replace anything that may reach you in bad condition, 
providing the transportation company has given it proper dispatch. If it has 
been too long on the road refuse to receive it. We will then refill your order 
and get our pay from the Express Company. 
We would prefer Bank Draft or P. O. Money Order in payment of plants, 
for please remember that our terms are Cash with Order. We cannot under¬ 
take to do a credit business at the price at which our plants are sold. To serve 
you at the lowest cash price is, we believe very distinctly to your advantage. 
We will book your order and hold the plants a reasonable time awaiting your 
remittance. 
All our plants are fresh dug, carefully cleaned, tied in bunches of 27 : 
(counted as 25), labeled with wood labels, neatly packed in slatted crates, 
none of which are more than 15 inches deep, and all of which are 12 inches 
wide. A Certificate of Inspection accompanies each package. We have an 
absolutely clean bill of health. 
Last year it was a matter of sincere regret to us that we were not able to 
fill all the orders for Premier that we received. This year we have a very 
large and fine stock and feel sure that we will be able to take care of all orders 
for that very popular kind. 
We appreciate your business. We will do our best to please you. We 
feel sure we can.
