Guarantee 
We guarantee our plants to be healthy 
and free from injurious insect pests; to be 
dug carefully, and packed properly to reach 
you in good condition. Complaints on this 
score must be made immediately on receipt 
of goods. 
We guarantee our plants to be true to 
name; if they are not, we will give you new 
ones at the first proper planting season 
after their falsity becomes apparent, or 
credit you with the amount of the purchase 
price. In no case do we assume liability for 
more than the purchase price. 
We do not guarantee our plants to live 
since we have no control over them after 
they leave our hands. You can guarantee 
their success by giving them proper care. 
We are ready at all times to answer any 
questions you may have as to their proper 
culture. If, however, any of our plants die 
and are so reported within 90 days after 
date of shipment, we will share your loss 
and furnish replacements at half price, the 
customer to bear the cost of transportation 
and planting. 
If you desire to have the plants insured 
against loss, you can accomplish this by the 
payment of a premium at the time of pur¬ 
chase. This premium will be quoted, if you 
will state exactly to what extent and for 
what period of time you wish to be insured. 
All agreements under this guarantee are 
contingent on the original bill having been 
paid in full. 
Terms—-Net cash with order.

CARE OF NURSERY STOCK 
It is safe to say that 98% of the nursery 
stock received directly from a reliable nursery 
that fails to grow, or does grow but is always 
stunted and weak is due to improper handling 
after it is received by the customer. 
When the stock is received, open the bundle 
in the shade, out of the wind, and cover. If you 
are not ready to plant immediately, heel the 
roots in the ground, soaking them well as you 
do. If well heeled in they can be kept without 
damage for a reasonable time. 
SHIPPING DIRECTIONS 
In ordering nursery stock our customers are 
requested to state explicitly the mode of con¬ 
veyance by which they wish their stock for¬ 
warded. We make shipments by freight, ex¬ 
press, motor truck, or parcel post. The price 
for all our material is at the nursery and does 
not include delivery. We can make shipment 
by motor truck at a moderate charge, provided 
the order is large enough to make a truckload. 
When no route or method is designated, we 
exercise our judgment. In no case do we as¬ 
sume responsibility after packages are shipped, 
except for our own mistakes. When losses 
occur by detention or mishandling, claim should 
at once be made on the transportation company 
by the consignee. For parcel post add 10% 
of the value of the order for postage, plus 
50c. for packing charges.
