_ SHERMAN'S GUARANTEE 
We guarantee to deliver nursery stock in good, growing condition and will 
replace immediately, upon notification, any items not proving as such if notified 
within 10 days of arrival of the shipment. Please remember, a plant is a 
living thing the same as any animal or human being. It feeds, drinks and 
breathes, and is subject to attacks of insects, disease and drought. We there- 
fore make any replacement of stock failing to grow at one-half catalog price, 
thereby assuming one-half the responsibility for the failure and you assume 
the other half. 
We warrant our stock to be true to name, with the expressed understanding 
that should any not prove so, we will refund the money paid or replace it with 
other stock, but in no case shall we be liable for damages beyond the original
