Please Read Before Ordering 

We wish to thank those who ordered from us during the 1941 sea- 
-son. We have endeavored to serve you to the best of our ability, We 
trust that you will again favor us with your order and should you do so, 
we shall do our best to give you complete satisfaction. All items in the 
growing, digging and packing of the plants are under our personal su- 
pervision. Thus we are in position to know the quality of the plants we 
send you. 
In describing the varieties we grow we endeavor to give a fair 
and honest description. We do not follow the practice of some in rein- 
troducing old varieties under new names, describing them in exaggerat- 
ed terms, and selling the plants at a high price only to the disappoint- 
ment of the purchaser. Bonafide new varieties are listed only after we 
have ‘proved their worth, 
In recent years an increasing number of our customers have 
come directly to our farm to get their plants. Our place of business is 
located on the county highway between Clyde and Seneca Falls, 
about four miles south of Clyde and ten miles north of Seneca Falls, and 
is plainly marked ‘by signs. If you plan to drive after your plants it is 
necessary that we be notified two or three days in advance. 
All orders are filled with fresh dug plants. ‘These are not grown 
in sand but in strong, heavy, loamy soil where they develop into fine, 
stocky well-rooted plants. We receive each year many compliments 
regarding the size and vigor of our plants. 
We take extra care to have our plants true to name, but in case 
they should prove otherwise, we will not be responsible for more than 
the purchase price of the plants, 
Complaints regarding shortage, etc. must be made immediately 
upon arrival of plants. If we are at fault, we will make it good. 
We shall do our best to serve and please you and endeavor to 
ship your plants on the date requested. But if they do not reach you 
at that date, please remember that the shipping season is short and 
that many others are waiting for their plants at the same time. Also, 
since we ship only plants fresh dug each day, rainy and wet weathsr 
often seriously interferes with our shipping schedule. 
We have customers who have ordered plants from us regularly 
for many years. This bespeaks the quality of our plants and the nature 
of our service better than any amount of self-praise. 
After about May 10 we do not like to ship plants due to the danger 
of failure because of the lateness of the season. Orders received after 
that date will be filled at the purchaser’s risk. ‘We do not sell plants 
in the fall. 
Cash must accompany all orders unless other terms are made. 
We are not open for business on Sunday.
