HOW TO ORDER 

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ CAREFULLY 
MAY 7th, 1945, is the last day orders will be accepted for spring shipment. 
Reason: Owing to the labor shortage we cannot pack late orders and at 
the same time complete the planting of the plants that we are growing 
for 1946. Another important reason is that late planted stock is usually 
a disappointment. Cherries, Apricots, Nut Trees, Strawberries and Berries 
will not stand late planting unless weather conditions are ideal. If you 
request order shipped on May 15th and we receive the order on or before 
May 7th we will be glad to pack and ship the order. We trust that you 
will appreciate that wartime conditions make the above policy necessary. 
Also that it is in your best interests to get stock planted early. 

Weather conditions permitting we can ship stock from November Ist to May 7th. 
SHIPPING. We will ship stock so that it will reach you the quickest and best way. Large orders 
of trees cannot be shipped by parcel post. We pay all the shipping charges on cash orders. (See 
page 9.) We do not pay shipping charges beyond the 4th postal zone. 
HOW TO REMIT. Remit by check, money order or we will ship C. O. D. provided 25% of the 
total amount accompanies order. We do not allow discounts or pay shipping charges on C. O. D. 
orders unless credit has been established with us. On orders of less than $1.00 add 25¢. 
GUARANTEE. We guarantee all of the nursery stock sold by us to be true to name and will 
replace free of charge any plant or tree that proves otherwise. At no time will we be responsible 
for any sum greater than that paid for the stock. 
REPLACEMENTS. We will replace at one half purchase price any stock that fails to grow 
providing that you notify us before November Ist, 1945. Replacements after June Ist of the 
Spring planting season are not advisable. 
PACKING. We pack all stock free of charge. Plants and trees are packed carefully to reach you 
in the best of condition ready to grow. Each plant or tree is carefully labeled as to variety with 
a wooden label and the roots are packed in.dampened packing material and wrapped in water- 
proofed paper. 
SPECIAL NOTICE. No orders accepted from the States of Washington and Oregon. Reason: 
All orders going into these two States must be either fumigated or treated with hot water. Our 
present short labor supply will not permit the extra work necessary to ship orders into these 
two States. 
CORRESPONDENCE. Please feel free to write to us at any time about problems of fruit or nut 
erowing. We will be glad to give you information to the best of our ability.
