^ TRUCK DELIVERY. We can frequently make 
deliveries with our trucks by special arrangements. 
SHIPMENTS BY PARCEL POST. Many of the 
smaller sized deciduous plants can be shipped to advantage 
by parcel post. Usually, plants should not be more than three 
feet in height for parcel post shipments. 
TERMS. Payment should be made at time of ordering or 
before shipment, when ordered direct from the Nursery. If 
order is placed with one of our bonafide salesmen, payment 
should be made on delivery unless otherwise agreed. We 
prefer to make no shipment C. O. D., but will, when re¬ 
quested, ship in this way, provided twenty-five per cent of the 
amount of an order is sent with the order, with return charges 
added. Kindly remit by Postal Money Order, Registered 
Letter, Draft, Express Money Order or personal check. 
Please do not ask us to open accounts for less than $10.00 
orders. Prices in this catalog cancel previous c]uotations. We 
reserve the right to change prices without notice. No change 
or countermands of an order may be considered final without 
our written consent.

at the each rate; 5 to 24 plants of one variety and size will

CLAIMS AND ADJUSTMENTS. Any error or

Damages in transit should be taken up immediately with 
your Express or Freight Agent; advise us at the same time 
which will help us to help you. 
GUARANTEE. All stock is guaranteed to reach you in 
good condition. In most cases the success or failure of growth 
depends in a large degree on the care and management of the 
stock after it is received by the customer. Remember, a tree, 
shrub or plant is a living organism as much as any animal 
or person. It breathes, drinks and feeds and is liable to 
attacks of disease and insects; therefore, it is humanly im¬ 
possible for us to guarantee growth or to be responsible for 
stock after it is delivered to our customers in good condition. 
The greatest care is exercised to keep our stock clean and 
true to name, and while we hold ourselves in readiness, on 
proper proof, to replace free of charge all trees, etc., that 
may prove otherwise, or refund the amount paid, we give no 
warranty, expressed or implied, as to description, quality, 
productiveness or any other matter of any Nursery stock, 
seeds, bulbs or plants we sell. A Maryland State Certificate 
of Inspection is attached to each shipment. 
Keep plants and trees watered well during 
dry seasons, cultivate the ground and keep all 
weeds hoed out. Give light feedings of well- 
rotted manure or fertilizer if needed, but do 
not overdo it. 
LETTER QUOTATIONS. We are pleased to quote 
Special Letter Prices and Terms when you send us your list 
stating quantity of each variety and sizes of plants wanted.
